We all work remotely. Currently there are 5 of us:
I'm in Los Angeles, CA
My co-founder is in Brooklyn, NY
We have a developer in San Diego, CA
We have another designer and developer in Dallas, TX
And a designer in Zagreb, Croatia
We work hard to make it work. Having the personal flexibility to work when we want, where we want is important to us. We work on 3 different teams, Growth (Marketing and Sales), Product (Design, Implementation, Support and Testing), ExCo (Finance, Legal, and Human Resources). One key is having a fixed cadence for all of our teams. We start each week with a Structured check-in meeting to discover if any of us are blocked on anything and setup ad-hoc meetings if we need to jam together. If something gets real harry, we might fly to visit one another. But that happens maybe 3X per year.
There are a growing number of these sorts of companies: Invision, Zapier, Hot Jar, and so many more.
You are an interesting guy. What exactly do you mean by office-less? My jobs have had varying amounts and degrees of office
You're too kind. Thank you.

Ahh, I vastly underestimated the amount of officeless-ness you were speaking of. That is a neat concept. Thanks for elaborating!
