As a business or startup owner, knowing how to reduce costs is essential for survival.
One of our secrets to minimizing the costs of running ClowdWork is working remotely. The cost savings of remote work arrangements are significant, and it comes with several advantages.
Working remotely means you don’t have to pay rent because you don’t have a physical office. You only have to pay for what your team has accomplished. The salary costs of remote employees are generally lower than office employees as well, as professionals are willing to take a pay cut for complete working freedom and we use to hire team members where salaries are lower.
It greatly benefits your team as well: they can work wherever they want, whenever they feel most productive, and they can focus their energy on getting things done.

Our payment philosophy
We follow a few principles when hiring and arranging payments:
• Pay by the hour
• Avoid retainers
Why we pay by the hour
• Almost all of our contractors are on hourly contracts and I believe that the days of fixed cost relationships are slowly coming to an end.
The main reason we pay by the hour is because we don’t want to pay for time that contractors aren’t adding value to our business. This is the fairest arrangement for both parties that we have found.
We build relationships with our contractors so they can work when (and where) they want to work. We pay them for their valuable time when they work for us. This provides them a lot of freedom.
That being said, when we find an outstanding team member, we tell them that we’d love for them to transition 100% of their time to ClowdWork. Generally, we do this by simply scaling up their work.
Since we pay most of our people by the hour and only pay for the amount of time that is worked, Clowdwork automatically performs all the computations for us.
In the past, we lost a considerable amount of money because we paid retainers, only to never hear back from the contractors. This is why we generally avoid retainers as much as possible.
