The company’s growing network of professionals covers marketing strategy, sales, digital accessibility testing, graphic design/art, copywriting, videography and data entry. We currently have five employees, three of whom are visually impaired. We also use a network of approximately 30 visually impaired independent contractors from around the country. Businesses can be successful and help reduce the 70 percent unemployment rate among people with visual disabilities by outsourcing projects to Outlook Business Solutions.

The next month is full of exciting events for us! We were honored to be selected to lead a break out session at the Greater Omaha Chamber Conference on Opportunity, Diversity and Equity happening Oct. 21-22. We will also present during the The Nebraska Tech Collaborative DEI Committee Oct. 26 webinar entitled People with Disabilities: The Untapped Tech Talent Pool. Additional events include a Ralston Area Chamber of Commerce panel at our location and two virtual presentations during the AIM Hartland Developer Conference the first week of November.

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month, which makes it the perfect time to share how people with disabilities contribute to businesses across the country. We would like to introduce you to one of our low vision employees, Kelli Martin. Kelli is our part-time remote project coordinator. To watch Kelli’s short video, click here!
