Ensure That You Analyze Your Area of Specialty
What is it that you are pretty great at? Contrary to common belief, every entrepreneur is not a sales person. Yeah, yeah, you have been so far, the accountant, receptionist and salesperson, so it is time that you seriously consider delegating! Not thinking delegating at all or even attempting to be everything to all people will in fact hinder the growth of your business. Figure out your core function – that is, know what it is you do best.
Outsource Before You Finally Hire
Most times when one reads about outsourcing especially in the newspapers, you tend to believe that outsourcing is utilized by top companies and not meant for small businesses – wrong! Some information that one reads about outsourcing makes small business owners think that outsourcing is quite complicated when it comes to small business – double wrong!!
But outsourcing is really quite simple and very effective for small companies as well. A really good rule of thumb is to outsource those tasks which actually cost the most, but usually generates the least profit. You can outsource the 4 functionalities of business which are:
- Sales
- Administrative
- Information Technology (IT)
- Management
Because you are outsourcing does not automatically mean that you are nuts, you need to understand that your outsourcing vendors are still your employees which means that you can most certainly hold them accountable for quality and performance.
When you are choosing an outsourcing firm to handle your various business projects, you need to make sure that you choose a firm that is highly reputable. You can go on the internet and find out if the outsourcing firm you wish to use have any complaints whatsoever brought against them. There are a lot of outsourcing firms that would deliver nothing but top notch work and even also help you effectively organize certain aspects of your business that needs organizing.
