Outsourcing in Small Ways
While we’ve talked about outsourcing and hiring in the past, I wanted to give my insight into why outsourcing in small ways can be beneficial to your business. As a business owner, I know that it can be intimidating to think about hiring someone full time or handing over a lot of work to a virtual assistant or other contractor. While that may work for some businesses, and is very beneficial as you grow, starting small can ease your workload and help you better serve your clients right where you are now.
