1.) Over-communicate Make sure to advocate for yourself and clearly state the progress you’ve made in the past week, which goals you’ve surpassed and which projects you’ve led. 2.) Invest in reliable tech Along with having the ability to take video calls without losing connection, you should consider what tools and tech you'll need to do your job well.... 3.) Lean on your community To make sure that you’re feeling supported and connected to the real world, we recommend becoming a part of a remote community - either virtually or in-person at a local coworking space or collective. 4.) Consider your workspace Set yourself up for success in a place where you can focus on the tasks at hand. 5.) Figure out your working style Other things to consider are whether you’re more productive in the morning or in the evening and whether you’re motivated by taking small breaks throughout the day or a longer midday respite. 6.) Take time for self-care The benefits of remote work can stretch into your life outside of work as well. With increased flexibility, you can take time to make sure you’re not missing life’s important moments. 7.) Know when to log off This can be one of the most challenging aspects for remote work beginners, as the world is becoming increasingly connected. It’s important to develop a habit of setting a time when you officially log off for the night. 8.) Embrace the perks of working remotely Remember, working remotely doesn’t just apply to those who would work from home or in the same region as their company’s office. - http://coworksouthbay.com/

As a business owner, you have to know where you are headed.
