Dair Communications - Technical Communication Consulting

HOW DO WE WORK TOGETHER?

Once you start working with Dair Communications, you will know that you have an integral new team member on your side. Because we have a global reach, we work remotely from your office location. The benefits are that we don't require the overhead of taking up space in your office. We can work using email, VPN connections, Skype or WebEx, instant messages, and phone conferences to stay in contact. We've been doing this kind of remote work for a long time, and we're good at it! Charges are based on the complexity of the work--no flat fees. So updating a photo on a website is not going to be charged as much as writing and reworking the taxonomy of a CMS, for example.
