Remote Career Possibilities for Creative People
By Rachel Puryear
If you want to travel unrestrained while also working for a living, you’ll greatly benefit from landing a remote job that you can do from anywhere, and everywhere.
Remote jobs are often associated with white collar professional jobs, ones that would normally otherwise be done in an office cubicle. However, there are remote jobs that encompass a wider variety than that. If you’re a creative person, and you want an artistic element to your work, there are remote jobs for you, too.

Check out the following remote career possibilities for creative people:

Writing/Videos/Podcasts
If you’re passionate and knowledgeable about one or more topics, there’s an audience out there who’s interested – even if your topic seems obscure.
You could channel your writing or storytelling skills into writing a blog or book, making a video blog, or starting a podcast. You can monetize these efforts through ad placement, and/or affiliate marketing. The more you grow your following, the more money you can potentially make – without necessarily having to work harder for it.
Graphic Design
Graphic designers develop the visual layout for digital and physical media – including websites, digital and paper publications, brochures, advertisements, and games. They might create designs by hand, or with computer software.
Do you love to draw? Are you visually oriented, with a good eye for aesthetics and getting attention? Do you express yourself well? This could be a great career choice for you.
Voice Recording
Do people tell you that you have a great voice? Do you love to talk, tell stories, or sing? You could make good money online doing voice recordings.
Businesses hire people for commercials, for voice-overs, audio-books, and more. Regardless of your age, gender, what your voice sounds like, or accents you speak with, there is voice work out there for a wide variety of voices. If you speak more than one language, that’s all the more voice work that’s potentially available to you.
UI/UX
Do you find some websites or products to be difficult to use, and frustrating; while others are much more intuitive, well-thought-out, and a breeze to use? How do some companies make things much better than others do?
Well, User Interface/User Experience (UI/UX) professionals make a huge difference in the usability of and user satisfaction with websites and consumer products. If you like helping people and better understanding their needs, and enjoy drawing and illustrating, this could be a promising remote career for you.
Marketing/Copywriting
Just decades ago, advertisements were something you saw on television, heard on the radio, read in a magazine, or viewed on a billboard driving by. Nowadays, though, a large percentage of sales of all kinds of products are made online.
This means that advertising and marketing have changed a great deal in a short span of time, too. Not only do businesses now need an online presence and online marketing strategies, but they need creative thinkers behind those efforts in order to help set them apart from their competition. Digital marketers, e-commerce specialists, and copywriters (those who write copy, which is text used for marketing) are in increasingly high demand these days.
Teaching

- Summer is here, and for van/RV lifers, that means enjoying the outdoors. Did you know that people of all shapes and sizes enjoy the outdoors, even if too many outdoor wear companies don’t cater to plus sizes? That’s frustrating for myself as a plus-sized outdoor lover, and to many others as well. But here are a few companies that do serve the plus-sized, outdoor-loving clientele:
- The Cootry Store on Amazon, with lots of swim and fitness wear for women/women-presenting. Lots of items have pockets, and sizes go up to 5X.
- The Real Essentials Store on Amazon, in the big and tall section, for men/men-presenting. They also have clothing in sizes up to 5X.
- Big people need big camping gear. Check out: this easy setup roomy tent with plenty of room, this easy setup spacious and tall tent, this thick, easy setup, queen-sized air mattress with a 600 lbs capacity that you can really sink into, and this line of extra-large and double sleeping bags for big and tall (up to 6’4/1.93m) people.
