[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 284816, member: 1607"] Welcome to the forum. In all honesty some of your points appear a little flawed in their logic. You are asking if others do a proposed work model you are considering for your business. Yet any person running a business needs to know their target customer base and how to market to promote yourself to your prospective customers. So you should be able to answer yourself if any business would be interested in the service you are considering? The concept of cutting travel costs for other businesses may or may not be valid. One off visits to a distant location may be cheaper in a travel lodge & a flight or ferry trip, compared to paying a full time employee to be on standby with minimal work. Or if no essential technical skill or knowledge is needed then a remote businesses would probably just ring an agency or sub contractor for some short term temp contract work. I cannot image than any successful business hasn't already established if its cheaper to use local contractors or travel / lodge their own. I think you would need to do the asking to the clients you are hoping to service as only you will know what hourly rates you charge or overheads you have to cover. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
