The Virtual Professionals Report
A virtual professional is defined as someone who conducts business
using technology, located remotely from their company or clientele. In 2003, after working virtually for many years, Business Design Studio developed a detailed
online survey which 70 virtual professionals answered. The result was a 13 page special report
provides a snapshot of the rapidly expanding trend and expectations for the future. The initial survey
relied on a combination of statistical questions to determine trends,
and open questions in order to gather quotes from virtual professionals. The 2003 report covered three areas:
- Demographics - who are virtual professionals and how did they get where they are,
- Benefits and hazards, perks and problems of being a virtual professional,
- and the state of technology in the virtual world. What are people using today, and where do they see technology going in the future?

"Having owned a successful and international virtual business
for 9 years now, I feel a strong sense of advocacy towards virtual professionalism," says Eileen Parzek, author of the report and owner of Business Design Studio. "My
goal was to gather both facts and opinions from other virtual professionals,
and share what I learned with the business community. I hope that it will
encourage other entrepreneurs to consider this way of work and life, and
educate people about businesses that operate this way."
