Early-stage Challenges Faced by the Company
Initially, Noble House encountered many challenges such as gaining the trust of people to work with someone halfway around the world, finding the right talent for specific skillset and experience. The objective was explicit to create opportunities for both businesses and freelancers to connect and deliver highly effective cost-efficient solutions.
However, some of the biggest hurdles they underwent and handled successfully are –
- To educate the market about the new concept of the gig economy and how they can utilize resources with the specific skillset for short-term requirements.
- Gaining acceptance of the gig model was resisted in the beginning but post COVID many Companies were much more willing and open to try this new model out!
- Concerns about data security had to be addressed by informing them of the various processes available to counter this problem.
- Companies were unable to grasp the idea that many professionals voluntarily chose gig assignments over having a full-time job.
- Also there were questions about the motivations and sincerity brought to the table by a freelancer. But these judgements were let go, once they had positive experiences with the freelancers their Companies hired.
