8KMiles is an online ecosystem of verified professionals and companies for outsourcing of software and other knowledge services (such as Design, Legal Processes or Accounting) “completely” over the internet. The 8KMiles ecosystem makes available both the people and the infrastructure (Software and Hardware) required on-demand.

The 8KMiles ecosystem is built to benefit

• Small and Medium businesses looking at efficient outsourcing without cap-ex
• IT companies looking to expand their teams virtually without losing control
• People with Sales/Business development skills who want to leverage their network and earn more
• People with Project Management and Domain expertise to earn to their potential
• Individuals who are looking for work freedom and want to work on projects matching their skills and interests (with virtually no limit to earnings!).

These are only a few highlights of how users benefit from 8KMiles. You can get a clearer picture by reading through our Help section and by actually registering and using the application.

8KMiles is not just a marketplace where Service Buyers locate and hire Service Providers. It is an ecosystem of businesses and individuals with different roles - such as Sales / Account Manager, Project Manager, Service Provider and Service Buyer, coupled with virtual computing infrastructure delivered from the cloud. The 8KMiles ecosystem models real world outsourcing without the overheads – location-related constraints, limited scalability and capital expenditure.

8KMiles is about “doing more with less”. Service Buyers can get more work done by spending a lot less than they traditionally do (more bang for the buck), Service Providers can earn more by working for lesser time (8KMiles brings in more efficiency as the Service Provider’s credibility is built on the work they do) and travelling a lot lesser, Sales Managers and Project Managers can earn more business with less travel and lesser hassles of management (8KMiles is a single point resource for managing multiple projects and people all by staying at home or any location of your choice).

In the current economic situation, with cost savings being the top priority for every business, 8KMiles is a compelling option to stay competitive by outsourcing at market-determined prices, in an environment that ensures quality and control. Let us redefine the future of online outsourcing - get on board now!
