I have been at Elance since 2003 working in various capacities. Elance is where businesses connect with professionals to get work done now. With the largest network of rated and certified technology and marketing talent, Elance facilitates the entire work process from hiring to collaboration to payment. Businesses use Elance to achieve more by outsourcing work to qualified people. Professionals use Elance to find meaningful jobs and expand their customer base.In the last 12 months more than 60,000 small businesses have posted more than 250,000 projects, making more than $60m worth of payments on Elance. The opportunity is just beginning: we believe that millions of people will join the virtual workplace in the next few years as the user experience is perfected and participation reaches its tipping point.
