🌎 The Reality of Remote Work
|
It’s not just you and me — many people are looking for ways to escape the rigid 9-to-5 and enjoy the freedom to work from anywhere. But where do you start? How do you land a remote job without experience? What skills do you really need? How different is it from traditional office work? So many things to figure out, right? The truth is remote work has become a significant part of the modern job landscape. In 2023, tech companies had the most remote workers (about 68%), followed by consulting firms (about 51%), and financial/insurance companies (about 49%). The main thing here is that instead of commuting to an office every day, you work from wherever you choose — your home, a coffee shop, co-working spaces, or even while traveling (as long as you have a reliable internet connection and the company allows it). This isn’t just a dream anymore, it’s becoming the new normal for millions of workers worldwide. However, while remote work has some handy benefits, it’s not without its challenges. A 2022 Statista study revealed three main challenges of remote work. 📎 First, 21% of remote workers said they stayed home too much because they had no reason to go out. 📎 Second, many workers struggled because they didn’t have a proper home office, which made it hard to separate their work life from their personal life. 📎 Third, 15% of people said their biggest problem was feeling lonely while working from home. So I spent hours researching how things actually work and wrote a comprehensive blog post that covers everything from common entry-level remote jobs to essential skills you need, and from where to find remote jobs to overcoming common challenges of remote work in today’s digital age. I hope this has something useful for you, whether remote work is something you've been thinking about for years or if you're just curious about how it works. Cheers, Minosh. P.S.

Did you know? A survey by McKinsey found that 70% of buying experiences are based on how customers feel about the brand, not just the product itself. That’s powerful. And when you think about brands like Apple, it makes total sense. People don’t just buy an iPhone or a MacBook… They buy the feeling that comes with it. When you walk into an Apple Store or visit their website, everything feels easy, clean, and exciting. And when the product finally arrives at your door, even the box feels...
84% of people say they’ve been convinced to buy a product after watching a brand’s video That’s not a small number. That’s your sign to start doing video right.

When Tesla launched the Cybertruck, people expected something bold, but no one expected a truck with no visible logo. There’s no big badge on the front or back, just a tiny logo hidden in the headlight, barely noticeable. And they even posted a picture of Cybertruck on X saying, “Only truck that doesn’t need a logo to know what it is.” So why did they do that? Because the Cybertruck isn’t just another car. It doesn’t look like anything else on the road. By removing obvious branding, Tesla...
