To say that Bryan and Shannon Miles know a lot about remote working is a bit of an understatement.

The married couple has been in the virtual assistant business together since 2010, and in 2017, they reorganized their five companies into one, BELAY, which provides virtual support to businesses. They have 1,100 team members and have never had an office.

We spoke with the couple via Zoom to get their tips for working and managing teams from home. Check out the tactics they've used to boost productivity and mental health for their workforce over the last decade.

Stay safe!
