Don't wait to work remotely until you're working remotely

Huh?⁣

If you have a goal of working remotely for a company, do everything you can to prepare yourself to become a remote capable worker before you're ever hired.⁣

⁣Don't wait to invest in the proper equipment once you're hired... it's the preparation before you get the job that has a huge influence on whether or not you get the job.⁣

And if you're budget-conscious, it doesn't mean it has to be expensive. ⁣

Go for quality and value, not just the most expensive things you can find.⁣

Here's why...⁣

Imagine you finally land an interview with your dream remote company.⁣

Your interview with them is a PREVIEW of what it's like to work with you

⛔ Now imagine the perception you give off if your webcam looks like you're filming out of a potato, your audio sounds like you're underwater, the lighting in the room makes you look like a silhouette, and you're holding your computer in your lap so the camera is looking straight up your nose.⁣

✅ Change the perception. What if you're sitting there in a comfortable chair and desk with great lighting and the camera looks straight on your face at eye level, you've got clear and crisp audio, and a natural swagger that comes with being confident in your setup.⁣

In order to be what you want to be, you have to be that person before you're "ready." Start now, and watch not only the way others react to you differently, but observe how great you feel with the right equipment.⁣
