ROI Success Story

"The E-Commerce Accelerator has opened up new avenues for us here at Dave's Farms. I feel a lot more confident in our abilities to run our website and we really feel like we can be successful. Two days ago, I had a guy call me and search for wheat in Utah. He usually buys it from Costco but wanted to support local. Our website popped up and he placed an order that day. I would 100% recommend this program to any business looking to grow online!" - Jordan Johnson, Dave's Farms

Investigating Remote Work Readiness

The Remote Online Initiative’s 2024 Special Report assessed remote work readiness in the Mountain West States. We surveyed 418 managers from Mountain West states with 5+ years of experience, and involved in decision-making processes. The survey targeted six (6) key areas of remote work proficiency:

  • Hiring, management, and engagement.
  • Remote strategy and leadership.
  • Communication and collaboration tools.
  • Technical Infrastructure.
  • Policies and compliance.
  • Security and privacy.

has led to notable improvements in the attitudes, abilities, and goals of its participants regarding remote work. Participants have shown a desire for greater incomes and have developed a positive view of remote work opportunities. For more details, please refer to Table 3.

In a job interview, this is how you acknowledge your weakness

    If you’re really determined to showcase your strengths, instead of feigning humility, it’s more effective to use humor. Across six studies, job applicants and founders were more successful when they joked about their capabilities. Humor signals competence without arrogance.
