2 Powerful Tools For Training Your Contractors For Outsourced Work

As a small business owner, it’s hard to outsource anything.

You always want to “do it all” and you don’t think that anyone else can do it but you.

Well, it turns out that many of the tasks you do can be done better and faster by someone else.

And some tasks can be done for only a few dollars an hour.

Here’s a question you need to ask yourself.. “What is my time actually worth?”.
$3 $5 $20 $50 ?

Is probably more than you think.

Would your business grow and improve if you had more time to just think freely about new customers, services or products?

Spending your time doing simple tasks, and usually struggling with them, gets you frustrated and takes away from what you are meant to do.

And that is to lead your business.

Early on in your business you had a passion and couldn’t stop thinking about how great it was going to be and then somewhere it just became a job.

Get that time back so the work can get done while you take a breath and light the fire again.

Now you are thinking I would love to but I can’t afford to hire more people or contractors.

That’s what I thought as well. But I soon found the world is a small place and if you can do it online or on a computer somebody else can do it too.

Sites such as ODesk and Elance allow you to hire people by the job or the hour in almost any country in the world.

So how do you train somebody in Bangladesh to do some work for you?
