Introduction
Performing remote accounting work for US SMEs, startups, CPAs and clients is a fantastic opportunity for anyone with commerce, economics, finance or accounting background (even college students) - you do not need to be a CA, CS or have an MBA degree.
You have a massive cost advantage over accountants and CPAs in the US, who charge approximately USD 300/hr for their clients!
Acceptance of remote work all over the world after the pandemic has made it 10x easier for Indians in other areas apart from coding to get remote jobs as well.
If you just charge USD 10 per hour (lower than minimum wages) and work for 200 hours per month, you can earn as much as USD 2000 per month initially!
Many Indians from small cities are already doing these assignments!
