Behind the Code: Flexible Work
- 24/10/2023
Seniority, technical ability, communication, responsibility. Without these, telecommuting just doesn’t work in my experience.
We built Pretty Much Nomads Ltd. as a fully remote agency from the outset. Back then, Petr Zacik and I were fully nomadic and we liked the idea of bringing together a bunch of people who worked the same way. This idea was born on a beach in Vietnam before it became a reality in Czechia.
Now the agency is 3+ years old, and in that time, we’ve created websites, content strategies, business materials, and whitepapers for over 35 tech companies.
We helped validate software products, map onboarding for new users, and prepare product videos and business presentations. We also coordinated with partners in the U.S. and designed an expansion into Canada.
The lecture was about our experiences, painful beginnings, and hard-won learnings.

Are you struggling with what content to prepare this year? What to create, where to publish, and why? You will list the services or products you offer and to whom. You will define your communication goals and prepare outlines of tactics to achieve them. You will determine the topics you want to communicate and gradually add them to the plan template. This way, you will put together individual pieces of content into a cohesive and, above all, functional puzzle.
