Thanks for the great answer!

So you started working as a freelancer and now are employed in a company that has remote workers. Finding such companies are (IMHO) easier than catering to multiple remote clients.

I've been freelancing since March this year and it has not been difficult finding clients. However all of them require for me to be present at the office because they are not well setup for having devs working remotely.

A company needs to be set from the ground up to have remote workers

You bring up a huge point which I did not mention.

As part of my consulting with various Companies, I additionally (as an extra 'add-on' that adds value but which I also gain from giving them) is training in:

1) How to work and communicate (and understands) efficiently designers and developers.
2) How to find the best outsourced talent and how to onboard them.
3) How and why to work with remote workers (hint: they get the best in the world not the best in the vicinity.)

And found that help me help them and help myself as well as give myself an additional subject of authority.
