Activities You Should Outsource
I work from home. I work for myself. For a long time I thought that this was synonymous with working alone. However, I have realized in the past year or so that I don’t have to work alone. There is a lot of work that I can outsource to other people. This allows me to focus on the area of my work that I do best.
The first things that I started to outsource were things that I didn’t understand very well. I hired an accountant to deal with my taxes. I hired a web designer to fix up my website. Sure I could have learned these things myself. But the truth is that I don’t care that much about things like PHP scripts and dreamweaver extensions so I’d rather just outsource that work to someone else.
The other thing that I outsource is work that is tedious. Things like filing, making phone calls and calendaring the month’s events are things that take me a lot of time. They need to be done but there’s no reason I have to be the one to do them. It’s a lot more cost-effective to outsource that work. Then I can use my time to do my other tasks.
