Pros and Cons of Outsourcing - Should You Outsource or Not? Here are my 5 Pros and Cons...

Ғылым және технология

When you’re running a business, you not only have to make sure that the business is growing in the first place, but you also have to be sure that the growth is consistent. Outsourcing can give you that extra boost to grow and scale your business successfully and give you time to work on what’s important. In this video Liam Martin (Co-founder and CMO of Time Doctor) takes you through his pros and cons of outsourcing. We review everything we've looked at over the last 8 years of successfully running a remote/outsourced team.
If you want to run a successful business you need to know your strengths and what you’re best at. Often, one of the biggest mistakes and roadblocks that many entrepreneurs face is that they try to do everything themselves. You may think that you can get things done better than anyone else, but the truth is real financial success occurs when you work ON your business, not IN your business.

    Hey Liam! First of all awesome content. I feel like I found a hidden gem! At the moment I am a freelance webdesigner and currently I am looking to hire my first employee. The main thing I am struggling with is finding a good source for reliable candidates. Any tips?

    Thanks for the detailed information on outsourcing. I see so much information on both sides of the issue. It is clearly not a one size fits all approach to business. Your experience and thoughtful reflections on this issue is appreciated.

    Yesssss, language barriers!!!!!!! A HUGE concern for customer service, PERIOD. This should very well make employees liabilities for that company and they need to move to train in order to effectively manage it from internal controls.

    T-Mobile outsourced their customer service & I switched providers. I will not support that kind of nonsense.

    @@RunningRemote I worked for call centers for many years, I have experience in this kind of stuff. I worked for the big banks dealing with customers all over the country. They all said the same thing, we rather deal with American representatives because there’s a language barrier with across seas reps. The across seas reps would screw up accounts & make mistakes. T-Mobile hires these across seas reps and the problems I mentioned earlier are the same, language barrier, they don’t understand or vise versa, they make simple mistake. Let’s help our economy by employing U.S. citizens so they can assist U.S. customers.

    @@joeshmoe8952 I do agree with customer service not being something you should outsource for the same reasons you stated. However there are plenty of things that outsourcing would be the better option. Things such as web design or really anything related to digital design.
