As per FlexJobs 2023 State of Remote Freelance Jobs Report, here are the top 10 assignments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you can already perform any of the above assignments, you may be able to secure some initial projects if you build your track record and do outreach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you want a high inflow of work and consistent earnings, you might want to consider the roles below.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By volume, there are 3 types of roles that have the maximum demand today from startups across the world in remote mode. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Startup generalist – Startup generalists are smart individuals with diverse skills that are very useful in an early stage startup.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    As a startup generalist, your goal is to free up time of the CEO so that he\/she can focus on business growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    While a startup can have many people who work in specialised roles, nobody can substitute for the CEO when it comes to growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That is where a startup CEO needs a startup generalist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Startup generalists need to have multiple skills like content creation, lead generation, operations, management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The first 5-10 hires of a startup would likely be of generalists<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you want to work as a startup generalist, you’ll need to be able to do a bunch of things such as project management, basic digital marketing, sales, data analysis, and business development. You don\u2019t have to do all of them though. Being able to do 3-4 of these things is quite good to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Normally it was a tough job, but with AI, it has become super easy to be a generalist!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here is how much startup generalists earn in early stage US startups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Imagine how happy a US startup CEO in early stage will be, if they can hire an experienced generalist like you, who can use AI to propel the business faster, for just 24,000 USD in a year, which works out to be way, way, way cheaper for them, while for you its pretty good salary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    And of course, as you prove yourself and the company grows, you can expect faster salary growth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019d like to know more about this role and how to use AI to find clients and perform client work, join us in the bootcamp this weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Virtual assistant and administrative support\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Virtual Assistants and admin support professionals require no specific skill sets beyond English communication, ability to use computers and being diligent to carry out the tasks given to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A virtual assistant is like an upgraded secretary\/executive assistant in the digital age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Imagine things that a secretary or executive assistant in the past would do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Booking travel, managing calendars, sorting & responding to mails, ordering stuff online, coordinating between different people, managing MIS, managing social media accounts, responding to customer support queries – none of these require people to be physically present. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Of course, today, a lot of this gets done through various kinds of apps. But who will run the apps and manage everything? Startup CEOs and busy professionals don\u2019t have so much time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      They need someone to manage all of this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Hiring people like that in the US or other developed countries is damn expensive. Look how much a virtual assistant in the US earns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Since people got used to working remotely, they realised that a lot of this work can be done remotely – compared to the US or UK, remote workers in India or other developing countries charge a lot less!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n


      <\/strong>If you want a simple, hasslefree easy job that pays well and is very predictable, then your choice must be virtual assistant and admin work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      While this may sound like a boring job initially, if you realise that you can earn more than a doctor earns in India by doing this work, would you still have a problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you realise that if you can do this work, build a good track record, you can easily get more and more clients, build a team to handle the extra work, and earn in crores, would you be open to that idea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We will share more about this work in the bootcamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Content creation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        If you are a more creative person, you may choose to do content creation work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Content creation has quite a few subfields:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Content writer, copywriter, content marketer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Video producer and editor, instagram and youtube producer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Infographic creators<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Podcast producer\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Graphic designer etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          All these jobs are incredible, and you could earn upwards of $2000 per month working remotely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          If you are not earning enough in your current job, you must explore this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          You can even save many hours everyday which are spent travelling! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Even if you just work for a few hours everyday, you can still earn about INR 50K to 80K per month by working from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          This is much more than what domestic employers pay full-time workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          There is no need to sacrifice your career for personal reasons or to raise a family anymore, after remote work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          What do you think about this opportunity? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Given a chance, will you go for one of these remote work opportunities?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          However, keep in mind that the more diverse your skill set is, the more attractive it is for startups to hire you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Some of you may not have expertise in any of these areas, but that is not an issue at all – you can learn how to do this work in 3-6 months.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          You will need to invest 2 hrs\/day of consistent effort to follow a specific roadmap. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
