This

is

the

Remote

Work

Life

Business

Spotlight
,

where

I

highlight

top

remote

business

innovators

and

share

personal

and

career

development

tips

to

help

you

navigate

the

world

of

remote

work
.

I'm

your

host
,

alex

Wilson-Campbell
.

I

help

remote

work

managers
,

professionals

and

freelancers

overcome

isolation

and

uncertainty

in

their

life

to

get

hired

and

fulfil

their

career

goals
.

At

the

moment

I

am

looking

at

Webflow
.

You

can

find

them

at

webflowcom

and

they

describe

themselves

as

the

modern

way

to

build

for

the

web
.

They

say

Webflow

empowers

designers

to

build

professional
,

custom

websites

in

a

completely

visual

canvas

with

no

code
.

Days

is

different

websites

and

web

builders

that

you

can

build

these

beautiful
,

custom
,

professional

looking
,

detailed

orientated

websites

with

little

or

no

sort

of

knowledge

or

skills

in

code
,

and

webflow

seems

to

offer

that
.

They've

got

different

clients

that

they

talk

about

here

Zendesk
,

rakuten
,

upwork
,

dell
,

lattice
,

getaround

so

different

clients

have

used

or

use

Webflow

for

their

websites

and

their

microsites

or

whatever

it

may

be
.

Let's

have

a

deeper

look
.

So

that's

what

they're

all

about
.

I

don't

think

we

need

to

sort

of

go

too

much

into

that

because

we

get

a

good

idea

as

to

what

it

is
.

I'm

not

going

to

mention

their

competitors
,

but

at

least

you

can

understand

that

this

is

what

they're

all

about

in

terms

of

helping

you

to

build

beautiful

sort

of

aesthetically

pleasing

websites
.

But

what

I

want

to

know
?

I

want

to

know

about

the

company
.

It

looks

like

they're

hiring

at

the

time

of

me

doing

this

podcast
.

But

before

we

delve

into

that
,

let's

look

to

see

what

they're

all

about
.

As

you

go

on

their

about

page
,

you

can

see

it

as

a

picture

of

the

team

there

and

they

say

we're

enabling

everyone

to

create

for

the

web

and

leading

fulfilling
,

impactful

lives

while

we

do

it
.

Their

vision

is

to
,

they

say

they

envision

a

world

where

everyone

can

create

powerful
,

flexible

websites

and

apps

as

easily

as

they

create

documents

today
,

because

the

only

thing

better

than

the

internet

is

an

internet

we

can

all

create

for
.

So

so

their

values

they've

got

values

here

listed
,

but

they

cross

it

out
,

they

put

a

strike

through

it

and

they

put

behaviours

underneath
.

So

they

say

we

don't

have

core

values

because

values

mean

nothing

without

action
.

So

these

are

our

core

behaviours

Start

with

customers
,

practice

extraordinary

kindness
,

be

radically

candid

like

that
.

Move

intentionally

fast
,

just

fix

it
.

Lead

by

serving

others
,

dream

big
.

I

really

like

this
,

love

it
.

And

they're

backed

by

different

uh
,

entities

I'm

not

going

to

talk

about

those

too

much

by

the

numbers
.

So

they've

got

295

team

members
.

Wow
,

founded

in

2013
.

Speaker 1
3:08

Here's

some

of

the

press

as

well
.

I

always

urge

people

to

look

at

press

and

PR

for

different

companies
.

You

can

see

what

their

movements

are
,

what's

currently

going

on

in

their

business
,

what's

their

team

doing
,

what's

the

business

doing
?

So

always

look

at

PR

and

they've

listed

some

here

on

their

website
.

What's

the

business

doing
?

So

always

look

at

PR

and

they've

listed

some

here

on

their

website
.

They

talk

about

their

team
.

We're

dedicated

to

building

a

diverse

team

in

all

senses

of

the

word

and

in

the

spirit

of

our

behavior

of

radical

candor
.

We're

not

there

yet
,

but

here's

how

we're

doing

it
.

Speaker 1
3:39

So

here's

yeah
,

they've

put

some

data

here

in

terms

of

the

makeup

of

their

team
,

so

they've

got

race

and

ethnicity

as

of

April

2021
.

And

58%

white
,

8%

Asian
,

7%
,

hispanic
,

latinx
,

6%
,

african-american
,

black
,

more

than

one
.

3%
.

Other

3%

not

reported

13%
.

So

gender

expression
.

So

they're

putting

data

out

there
,

and

I

think

Help

Scout

do

a

similar

thing
.

So

this

is

really

nice

to

see
.

Primary

working

location

so

52%

of

the

company

is

US

remote
,

27%

is

San

Francisco

headquarters

and

21%

is

remote

outside

of

the

US
.

So

some

numbers

there

which

are

really

interesting
.

They

are

hiring

at

the

moment
.

So

let's

quickly

skip

across

to

their

careers

site

and

let's

see

what

different

areas

they

hire

for
.

But

so

far
,

so

good
.

Speaker 1

here's

a

link
,

a

little

button

which

urges

you

to

press

it
.

It's

a

big

blue

button

or

big

lilac

button
.

I

press

it
,

let's

see

what

happens
.

Open

roles

they've

got

roles

in

different

teams

customer

support
,

data
,

design
,

engineering
,

lots

in

engineering
.

Finance

people
,

yes
.

So

lots

of

different

areas

that

you

can

delve

into
.

Speaker 1

you

need

be

inquisitive
,
