As a remote communications consultant, your job duties involve working with a company or organization to improve their branding, marketing or public relations (PR) efforts. You work with clients on a freelance basis through a consulting firm or agency. You may do most of your work and communication remotely over the internet. Your responsibilities vary with each client, but your overall goal is to help them create a positive image in their industry, market sector, or with the general public through press releases, reports, websites, and other media.
