Raj Goodman Anand’s Idea About Hybrid Working

There is no question that hybrid and remote working will continue as the new norm. With this in mind, Raj talks about how Goodman Lantern has been an adopter of remote work from day one – which was seven years ago. This has given this content marketing, and content writing agency a head start on working from home in different parts of the world. He even mentions running a business from a boat!

The conversation also covers the topic of how Goodman Lantern stands out from its competitors. According to Raj, it’s all about client subscription and retention and how to use content to grow these aspects in various businesses.

• Giving back without expecting anything in return – it’s about good karma and helping our fellow human beings
