Devoted to small businesses and those who run them

Many employees jump at the chance to telecommute and work from home. But telecommuting offers significant advantages to employers too. 

These may include

• less office space needed
• less staffroom space needed
  
• less hardware and software to be housed
• flow on effect of less maintenance
• motivated employees
• employees feel they are trusted
• more flexibility for employees
• more efficient communication strategies explored
• less inhouse phone lines

A happy employee is more likely to be more productive, and value the trust put in them with regards to accountability.

A Changing Business Model
In this age of the internet, the business model has also changed in many instances. You can have two people who live on opposite sides of the world or country. They can work together.

Own A Business Together Without Having Met
They can even own and operate a business together. I'm always fascinated by stories of people who have partnered to start an internet based business, but have never met.  

Telecommuting is the way of the future. 

Do you have employees who telecommute? Perhaps you telecommute yourself. I'd love you to share your experiences.
