Although REMOTE iT! focuses on how using freelancers can help businesses scale and meet customer needs, it also offers guidance for anyone managing remote teams to help them save money while achieving results well beyond their expectations.  The book describes best practices for leading an exceptional remote culture, building a loyal workforce, and finding workers with a wide range of skill sets.

Brooks describes creative uses of technology beyond Slack, Skype, and Zoom that takes a remote culture to the next level of connectivity.  He uses an Oculus gaming headset and meets in virtual rooms together with team members, clients, and advisors. These virtual environments enable attendees to have an experience like face-to-face communications without having to leave their homes. At a time when travel is impractical, these experiences are priceless.

Remote work is the new mantra for business. REMOTE iT! offers guidance to help entrepreneurs step into the virtual world with confidence and success.
