Five years ago, working from home felt like a luxury.
Today, it’s not just possible, it’s how the world works.
But if you’re thinking of restarting your career after a few years, you’re probably asking yourself what every woman asks me: Is it stable? Can I earn consistently if I work remotely? Will I actually grow, or will it stop after a few months?
Let’s dive right in.
Will my earnings be stable? What if I get no work in some months?
Here is the answer: Remote work is very stable.
Every time you serve a client or work for an employer, you not only earn money for that work, but you also build your track record.
You ask your clients for a testimonial.
These things increase credibility.
Each project delivered, each task completed well, each happy client, each good feedback, becomes proof that you can do the work for future clients and future employers.
Over time, these become your case studies, testimonials, work samples and references and your track record compounds.
This enables you to charge more.
The women we have trained are always able to earn more over time, whether in remote jobs or as remote freelancers.
They can get repeat work, referrals to other employers and clients.
When clients or employers realise that they can count on you (based on your past work & testimonials), they pay you more.
Many women get multiple increments in a year.
Those who are doing freelance work increase their charges every time their track record improves.
Above all, the ability to find work increases your income security.
Want more work? You can find more clients.
What if your client no longer has work? You can find many other clients. Most of the women we helped end up refusing work in a matter of 3-4 months, as they end up having their hands full.
What if your employer does not have any work anymore for some reason? You can find another remote job in less than 10 days based on this.
What if your client moves on to another job because their startup fails? They are highly likely to refer you to the next employer where they work.
In short, unlike in office jobs where you are dependent on your employer, in remote jobs, you are learning how to get “income security”, so that you are not wedded to one employer or one job.
As a result, you’re never handicapped, never out of options.
You need to learn one thing to reach a position of true income security, whether you have a job or you are a freelancer: ‘how to find work’.
We will show you how to do that.
Most people are scared because they do not know how to find work, how to approach a client or an employer (they directly ask for a job), how to follow up, or how to present their prior track record.
That is the big missing piece. Once you learn outreach properly and practice it, a huge part of this fear starts reducing, because you know how to go out and create opportunities for yourself instead of just waiting and hoping.
How to trust online clients or foreign companies? Are they genuine?
That’s a fair question.
The good news is, we can show you how to find genuine clients and employers from reliable sources.
Websites like Upwork, LinkedIn, and Fiverr have millions of verified businesses posting legitimate work opportunities every single day.
They hold payments securely, release them only after the client approves the work, and even have built-in systems for disputes or delays.
For example, let’s take Fiverr:
You can also find gold standard clients through reputed accelerators like Y-Combinator – there are 1000s of such accelerators.
Many of the companies that we will show you how to find are funded by trusted global accelerators like Y Combinator. The same network that helped build world-famous brands like Airbnb, Stripe, and Dropbox.
These accelerators have already vetted startups, and these startups have genuine websites, LinkedIn profiles of their founders, a valid and working product, etc.
We will show you how to find reputable local businesses on directories like Clutch or Yelp, where you can find real reviews of their customers.
None of these are fly-by-night operators.
So when you’re working remotely, you’re not depending on luck; you’re using structured, credible systems that thousands of professionals around the world use daily.
We have helped thousands of Indian women obtain paid work from such clients and remote employers.
How do you get paid?
You receive your international payments directly into your existing Indian savings bank account — the same one you already use.
You do not need an NRI account, a current account or any special setup.
Foreign clients pay you through SWIFT or wire transfer, which is just the international version of NEFT.
Your bank converts the amount into rupees and deposits it into your account after a small conversion fee. That’s it.
If you work through platforms like Upwork or Fiverr, it becomes even easier; your payment is protected from the moment you start the task.
You can withdraw that money directly into your bank account through Upwork’s own withdrawal system, Payoneer or Wise.

How women are already growing through remote work
At Skill Arbitrage, we have helped over 1,000 women to find remote opportunities in the past 18 months, many from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, some after 10–15 years of career breaks.
Our success has been covered in the media.
They started small:
- Handling admin work for local entrepreneurs
- Managing social media for small businesses
- Helping professionals with client outreach
- Writing, researching, or creating digital content
Within months, they built a track record, secured testimonials, and confidence.
Some now work with international clients, some run their own small agencies, and others work part-time for Indian startups, all from their homes.
Their lives changed not because the world suddenly became fairer but because they learned how to use new opportunities to fit their own reality.
Are you now confident about knowing more about remote work?
Here are a few ways in which you can work remotely:
- As a remote freelancer
- In a part-time job (3-6 hours per day, depending on how much time you have) – your earnings are stable
- In a full-time remote job
You don’t have to figure everything out at once. Just take the first step and see how much is possible when you give yourself a chance.
