This blog post is in response to Natalie Sisson’s question, “What’s The One Task That You Will Outsource?” #paraphrased.
It is part of her “15 Days To Freedom Blog Challenge.”
Though the blog challenge is close to being over, if you want to join in on the challenge, you can visit here.
You hear a lot about how large businesses are closing different departments and outsourcing it overseas.
In a lot of ways, it makes sense because they are saving money for their businesses.
Though I am a strong proponent of people having work, if a person is only specialized in a particular skill and it get outsourced, then they are in trouble.
The interesting thing is that small businesses, solopreneurs, etc. can outsource certain task that will allow them to focus on their strengths.
Thanks to the internet, people can work from their homes or from anywhere in the world as virtual assistants.
According to Wikepedia, they are an estimated 25,000 people who are virtual assistants.
Some are firms who manages a staff dedicated to virtual assistance.
One of the best virtual assistants out there includes Tina Forsyth, who is the author of two books.
I will be honest, I was planning on outsourcing some tasks that I was not good at last year, but the prices were out of my league.
The one task I will outsource is getting a virtual assistant who can put together my schedule because I think it will make it easier on me to focus on writing great content.
I also plan on signing up with Zirtual very soon because Jenny Blake recommended the company to me and I trust her word.
Also, Zirtual is very selective on who works for them, so you know that you will get quality service.
What is the one task you will outsource? You can leave your comments below.
