Description

Welcome to Outsource Mastery: How to Easily Hire Freelancers to Grow Your Business

Our goal in this course is to help you grow your business (or start a new one) by hiring freelancers and overseas workers to do a lot of the work for you.

Through effective strategies and practices taught here, you can blast through roadblocks and bottlenecks in your business by outsourcing all those tasks that you either don’t want to do or don’t have the skills to do yourself.

Outsourcing is the process of hiring a freelancer, a virtual assistant or an agency to handle business activities for you. In this course, we will cover all aspects of hiring and managing your workers, so you can focus on more important tasks to grow your business … or even take a vacation and spend more time with your family, knowing that the work will get done!

Outsourcing offers the following advantages for your business:

It allows you to gain services and skills you would find hard or time-consuming to learn yourself

It allows you to grow your business without any major investment

It avoids the complications of hiring local employees full time

Overseas freelancers means your business is running 24/7

This course illustrates how we have used outsourcing to rapidly grow our business to over 50 full-time people around the world.

If you already have a business, we’ll show you how to grow it.

If you are just starting your business, we will teach you how to build new income streams with a focus on outsourcing. We will also give you three potential business models you can follow.

Outsourcing allows you to focus ON your business, rather than working IN your business. That is, you can concentrate on core goals, structures and strategies that make you money, and outsource tasks such as article writing, coding, graphic design, managing the process of importing/exporting goods, etc.
