Inc Magazine is going Virtual…
I couldn’t help but conjure up images of Tron with this posting, but I am all about Inc Magazine’s editorial division to pack up their bags and work from home or “go virtual” as they say….
Here’s the quick breakdown from Inc:
Not only are they saving money in overhead by doing it, but they’re making a viral-marketing blitz even by just simply announcing it. NPR, and the NY Times have both picked up the story, and while I particularly enjoy their stories about people in the Caymans living off of their website-domain portfolios, it’s nice to see an “experiment” like this in the making.
Newspaper Publishers out there reading this – take note! This same strategy might work for you some day. Here’s their quick reasoning behind the move: “Everyone knows the workforce is becoming more virtual. Free online technologies offered by the likes of Skype and Google have made it possible for start-ups to be launched by teams of people who live in different cities or, for that matter, on different continents. As for established businesses, a compelling argument can be made that, between high rents and long commutes, virtual work is more desirable, too. And individual workers have found that telecommuting opens up possibilities for integrating work and life (in ways both good and bad) as never before.”
