Value of outsourcing

Outsourcing is the best thing to happen to small business since the personal computer.

Outsourcing is absolutely good practice - especially for any tasks that are not part of your core-competency, and especially when they can be outsourced to a trusted vendor-partner.

Using outsourcing vendors to take certain, non-core tasks off of your plate increases your company's efficiency, lowers your costs and boosts your profits. This also allows you and your team to focus squarely on those elements that make you successful, like product development, customer acquisition and anything that differentiates you from your competition.

Remember the powerful Blasingame Outsourcing Question: "Must this be done in house?" Then apply that question to every task you perform.
