Foreword
Simply put outsourcing is the movement of workload to another
source which can provide assistance in that particular area for an
agreed upon price either as a onetime service or as an ongoing
complementing service provider. In doing so the principal company
can effectively save on time, commitment of staff that could otherwise
be used for other tasks and getting speedier work results. Get all the

Chapter 1:
Outsourcing Basics
Synopsis
Also known as the customer or buyer the company that is looking to
outsource some of the work load will ideally approach other
companies or individuals who are able to provide the particular
service for a fee.
- 7 -
The Basics
This fee is usually a much lower commitment for the company when
compared to having to physically set up the mechanisms that would
be needed to get the particular job done within the existing company’s
makeup.
Therefore through the action of outsourcing the cost saving is evident.
Besides this there is also the advantage of not having to allocate staff
to the particular task which may lead to the general disturbance in the
current flow of the work environment.
The outsourcing exercise is generally acquired from sources outside
the physical realm of the company and at a physically different
location.
Sometimes it is even sourced from a different country where it is
more cost effective than to have the same work done within the
company’s current makeup of expertise.
The beginnings of the outsourcing style of getting work done using
outside contributing help, was first evident in the country of Japan.
This style was made popular through the demand of various different
components within the business make up, having to contribute to one
singular goal without actually having all the expertise under one
entity, thus the birth of the outsourcing style.
- 8 -
Later other countries started copying this style simply because of the
cost effective and time saving elements.
- 9 -
Chapter 2:
Determine What People Are Best For Your Work
Synopsis
Most companies’ face the challenge of keeping escalating costs down,
while still maintaining the highest of standards in order to stay
competitive. In doing so these companies would have to look into
areas that can benefit and one option to consider and is currently
being widely used is the outsourcing tool.
- 10 -
Make Some Choices
Without the possibility of using the assistance of an outsourcing
company the principal company would have to consider elements
such as hiring, training, administration, benefits, absenteeism,
workspace and equipment.
In some cases such expansions would seem more burdensome
than welcomed therefore the nest best option would be to consider
outsourcing.
The following are some points to consider when determining
what’s best:
Expertise – identifying the relevant providers in a particular field
and then ensuring the best possible price is agreed upon for the
services rendered would be the first step to take. The outsourcing
company chosen should ideally be an authority in its particular
field.
Management – not having to micro manage a particular segment
of the overall project simply because it has been taken care of
through the outsourcing platform can be quite a relief both
mentally and physically for all involved in the project as a whole.
Personnel flexibility – being able to hire an outsourcing company
that works on a project to project basis would be better than

- 11 -
having to hire someone only to have to let them go when the
project is over.
This cost incurred for hiring personnel on short term contracts can
be significantly higher, as for the worker there is no job security
thus the demand for higher wages is common and expected.
There are also services provided by companies that can link the
various wants to the needs of other companies. Hiring such
companies to find a suitable partner in the outsourcing exercise
would definitely benefit as the service provided would be tailor
made to the requirements of both parties.

Chapter 3:
Decide What Should Be Outsourced
Synopsis
Making the decision to outsource is usually not one to be taken
lightly. One should be aware that anything done on behalf of the
business entity will reflect directly on it in terms of quality of the end
product being made.
- 13 -
What Will Be Sent Out
Although in almost all cases, especially if it has been well thought
out the money saved can be very significant indeed when the
services of an outsourcing company is used.
This is mainly because the chosen outsourcing company is ideally
supposed to be able to provide the expertise and technologies that
would not be available within the principal company itself.
However both parties should be committed and the monitoring
process will take time and energy but once the standards and
expectations are well established and understood, the outcome can
be very workable indeed.
The more popular areas that are normally sought for outsourcing
purposes are as follows:
 IT functions – when businesses expand there may be the
need to stay current especially within the IT world. If the
business entity did not initially require any IT intensive
contributions then the initial setup of the business entity
would not have configured this element into the general
makeup of the company thus the need to outsource.
 Business processes and HR – here again as the business
expands or even if there is no real need to have the actual full

- 14 -
time employment of such expertise in place, the out sourcing
services can be sought. Such activities can be outsourced
when and if needed and it also provides for expertise and
specialized skills
 Finance – outsourcing auditing functions is common and
this can be further extended to outsourcing the entire
accounting functions of a company. Elements such as
bookkeeping, tax management and invoicing could easily be
done through the outsourcing platform.
- 15 -
Chapter 4:
Use Project Tracking
Synopsis
Project tracking is not about being able to complete a project within
the stipulated time frame and with satisfying results, budgeting and
good management skills. By using the project tracking exercise the
idea is to ensure everything is optimized and even better and expected
results should prevail or at least present possibilities of this in the
next endeavor.

Track It
When a project involves the coordination and contribution of several
different parties and contributions a lot of confusion can occur to
derail the time line when there is not coordination and tracking done.
The tracking exercises have many benefits and below are just some of
the reasons why it is necessary to have this in any project:
Keeping the time line adhered to at all times. The tracking exercise
helps to keep each contributing party fully aware of their time allotted
to ensure their part of the exercise is completed properly.
If there are any problems or discrepancies occurring within the time
frame given the tracking exercise will allow for this to be highlighted
and thus making it possible for the necessary action to be taken.
Tracking also helps to indicate when a particular contributing factor
is not yielding the effects it was initially designed to do, thus causing
some level of inefficiency.
Savings of time and effort can be made when the original design is
changed or tweaked to facilitate better productivity and eventual
success.
The tracking mechanism can also help to detect poorly functioning
sections or personnel within the project thus either replacing these or
reminding them of the commitment expected of them.
This is an especially effective way of ensuring all concerned are fully
contributing to the success of the project.
- 17 -
The tracking exercise can also help the identify areas where cuts can
be made to make the general outcome even more cost effective and
thus generating a higher profits percentage.

Chapter 5:
Build Strong Relationships With Workers
Synopsis
A big part of ensuring a company is well run and making profits is
evident in how it is keeping those working at the company happy.
Happy workers equal good working environments and therefore
better quality of work is produced.
- 19 -
Relationships
The key to creating the ideal platform for the working environment
lies in the ability to build strong relationships with the workers. When
the strength of the relationship is evident the loyalty levels of the
workers is also much higher and this is a very important motivational
factor.
Workers are more likely to go the extra mile for employers who are
caring and are concerned about their comforts and the working
environment.
Some of the practices that can foster strong working relationships are
noted below:
The manner in which “orders” are given is very important thus one
should adopt the attitude of asking rather than telling someone to get
something done.
Being clear with instructions and what is expected is also something
that is highly regarded in the mechanism of getting the cooperation of
others. Clarity ensures focused and goal centered work attitudes.
Being polite is a great way to gain the cooperation and respect of
those working within the project. Without politeness there is a very
real possibility of creating animosity with those people who are
supposed to be ideally working together toward the same successful
end.
- 20 -
This animosity can and usually does cause the working environment
to be severely affected thus effectively damaging the relationship with
the workers. Learning to refer to worker by their names is one of the
best ways to warm their hearts as it projects the perception of their
importance.
Recognizing and ensuring that there is no encroachment on the
private time of the workers is important. Creating workloads that
often require the workers to stay back late thus eating into the own
private time will create resentment and this is not good for building
stronger relationships.
- 21 -
Chapter 6:
Provide Good Feedback
Synopsis
Providing feedback is one way of getting people to improve on their
current work contributions and also getting people to be more aware
of how they can improve.
However the feedback exercise should be done in a manner that is
neither offensive nor condescending.
Frequent feedback given, if done with good intentions and in a
constructive manner, will help any business or individual eventually
make the necessary improvements which will then be reflected in the
elevated success rates.
- 22 -
Feedback
Most companies and employees value feedback especially if it is given
in a timely manner. Where there are problems and expectations are
not going as first designed then feedback provided can sometimes
help to shed light on the shortcomings of particular contributing
factors.
This is very important especially when the business projections are
not being met and even worse, are on the decline. By the feedback
given all involved are able to take a step back and view the situation
from the viewpoint of the feedback source therefore acquiring better
understanding and making the necessary adjustments will be easier.
Striking a good balance in the commenting habit is also encouraged.
In most cases feedback is only given when something negative has
occurred, but a good feedback is also equally important if not more
so. This is mainly because it will edify the person, group or company
thus spurring them on the work even harder.
Providing good feedback can also be done in the form of dialogue.
Very often the feedback is given in very much a one sided manner.
This is often not helpful to the receiving party if there is little they can
do to change the current situation, therefore is the feedback is done in
- 23 -
an open dialogue style both parties are better able to understand the
situation and work out a solution.
- 24 -
Chapter 7:
How Outsourcing Can Help Your Business
Synopsis
There are a lot of merits to using the outsourcing style to keep the
smooth running of any business mechanism and it is becoming more
popular to seek this kind of help due to its positive contributions to
the business as a whole.
- 25 -
How It Helps
The following are some of the reasons why outsourcing can benefit
a business mechanism:
Perhaps the most important contributing factor would be the one
pertaining to cost. If a company had to explore the possibilities of
setting up a separate department for a particular part of the overall
work procedures needed for the project at hand, it end up being a
rather costly affair.
This is mainly due to several issues such as the hiring of new staff,
the availability of space for the new workers and the project they
take on, the resources and possible assisting tools that may be
needed and many more other connective elements.
All this when measured against making the choice to use an
outsourcing option will in most cases prove to be cost effective.
The company can then focus all its efforts in other areas, thus
bringing the business to more competitive level in the market.
More time can be spent on making the product or business more
visible and thus garnering more revenue to the company.
There is also no need to have to file documentations that would
otherwise have to be done on behalf of the hiring of the new badge
When you got to this page, I am sure that you want to change your life
If you want to change your life and work from home, click here
- 26 -
of workers to serve in the project. This is a disadvantage when the
services of the workers are only for a short period of time which
does not justify the efforts for the above mentioned documentation
process.
Faster processes can be expected, with the use of the outsourcing
option, as the expertise provided will be based on the outsourced
capabilities and contributions.
- 27 -
Chapter 8:
What You Have To Be Careful With While Outsourcing
Synopsis
The following are some reasons why outsourcing may not present the
best options of choice for the business engine per say:
- 28 -
Some Tips
One of the foremost concerns when choosing to use an outsourcing
company is the almost immediate lost of complete control over the
functions and management of the particular part that is being
outsourced.
Though outsourcing companies will do the job as required as their
reputations are also on the line, the standards and mission that drives
the customer may not be shared by the outsourcing entity as they
have no vested interest in the outcome as a whole.
The outsourcing company’s concern would be the profits they make
out of the services rendered and the quality of their contributions and
almost nothing else.
Most contracts drawn up between principals and the outsourcing
company is done to the advantage of the outsourcing entity, therefore
any problems that arise within the relationship and the work
produced will require an outside mediator to handle and this will
incur further cost for the principal company.
Then there is also the fact that any additional requirements not
originally stated in the contract would incur further costs thus
perhaps making the whole endeavor cost ineffective as compared to
doing it “in house”.
- 29 -
Security and confidentiality is also another factor to be considered
especially when the outsourced work is of a sensitive nature.
Competitors will be only too happy to indulge an outsourcing
company for information pertaining to issues that may prove to be of
help to them. In most cases loyalty is not part of the deal when
outsourcing assistance is sought.
- 30 -
Wrapping Up
As in everything there are advantages and disadvantages and the
outsourcing options presents no difference. Before any particular
choice is made either way the individual should first take the time to
explore and understand both views before actually making a decision.

  • 3. - 3 - Table Of Contents Foreword Chapter 1: Outsourcing Basics Chapter 2: Determine What People Are Best For Your Work Chapter 3: Decide What Should Be Outsourced Chapter 4: Use Project Tracking Chapter 5: Build Strong Relationships With Workers Chapter 6: Provide Good Feedback Chapter 7: How Outsourcing Can Help Your Business Chapter8: What You Have To Be Careful With While Outsourcing Wrapping Up
  • 4. - 4 - Foreword Simply put outsourcing is the movement of workload to another source which can provide assistance in that particular area for an agreed upon price either as a onetime service or as an ongoing complementing service provider. In doing so the principal company can effectively save on time, commitment of staff that could otherwise be used for other tasks and getting speedier work results. Get all the info you need here.
  • 5. - 5 - Business Outsourcing A Blueprint on Successful Business Outsourcing
  • 6. - 6 - Chapter 1: Outsourcing Basics Synopsis Also known as the customer or buyer the company that is looking to outsource some of the work load will ideally approach other companies or individuals who are able to provide the particular service for a fee.
  • 7. - 7 - The Basics This fee is usually a much lower commitment for the company when compared to having to physically set up the mechanisms that would be needed to get the particular job done within the existing company’s makeup. Therefore through the action of outsourcing the cost saving is evident. Besides this there is also the advantage of not having to allocate staff to the particular task which may lead to the general disturbance in the current flow of the work environment. The outsourcing exercise is generally acquired from sources outside the physical realm of the company and at a physically different location. Sometimes it is even sourced from a different country where it is more cost effective than to have the same work done within the company’s current makeup of expertise. The beginnings of the outsourcing style of getting work done using outside contributing help, was first evident in the country of Japan. This style was made popular through the demand of various different components within the business make up, having to contribute to one singular goal without actually having all the expertise under one entity, thus the birth of the outsourcing style.
  • 8. - 8 - Later other countries started copying this style simply because of the cost effective and time saving elements.
  • 9. - 9 - Chapter 2: Determine What People Are Best For Your Work Synopsis Most companies’ face the challenge of keeping escalating costs down, while still maintaining the highest of standards in order to stay competitive. In doing so these companies would have to look into areas that can benefit and one option to consider and is currently being widely used is the outsourcing tool.
  • 10. - 10 - Make Some Choices Without the possibility of using the assistance of an outsourcing company the principal company would have to consider elements such as hiring, training, administration, benefits, absenteeism, workspace and equipment. In some cases such expansions would seem more burdensome than welcomed therefore the nest best option would be to consider outsourcing. The following are some points to consider when determining what’s best: Expertise – identifying the relevant providers in a particular field and then ensuring the best possible price is agreed upon for the services rendered would be the first step to take. The outsourcing company chosen should ideally be an authority in its particular field. Management – not having to micro manage a particular segment of the overall project simply because it has been taken care of through the outsourcing platform can be quite a relief both mentally and physically for all involved in the project as a whole. Personnel flexibility – being able to hire an outsourcing company that works on a project to project basis would be better than When you got to this page, I am sure that you want to change your life If you want to change your life and work from home, click here
  • 11. - 11 - having to hire someone only to have to let them go when the project is over. This cost incurred for hiring personnel on short term contracts can be significantly higher, as for the worker there is no job security thus the demand for higher wages is common and expected. There are also services provided by companies that can link the various wants to the needs of other companies. Hiring such companies to find a suitable partner in the outsourcing exercise would definitely benefit as the service provided would be tailor made to the requirements of both parties.

  • 12. - 12 - Chapter 3: Decide What Should Be Outsourced Synopsis Making the decision to outsource is usually not one to be taken lightly. One should be aware that anything done on behalf of the business entity will reflect directly on it in terms of quality of the end product being made.
  • 13. - 13 - What Will Be Sent Out Although in almost all cases, especially if it has been well thought out the money saved can be very significant indeed when the services of an outsourcing company is used. This is mainly because the chosen outsourcing company is ideally supposed to be able to provide the expertise and technologies that would not be available within the principal company itself. However both parties should be committed and the monitoring process will take time and energy but once the standards and expectations are well established and understood, the outcome can be very workable indeed. The more popular areas that are normally sought for outsourcing purposes are as follows:  IT functions – when businesses expand there may be the need to stay current especially within the IT world. If the business entity did not initially require any IT intensive contributions then the initial setup of the business entity would not have configured this element into the general makeup of the company thus the need to outsource.  Business processes and HR – here again as the business expands or even if there is no real need to have the actual full When you got to this page, I am sure that you want to change your life If you want to change your life and work from home, click here
  • 14. - 14 - time employment of such expertise in place, the out sourcing services can be sought. Such activities can be outsourced when and if needed and it also provides for expertise and specialized skills  Finance – outsourcing auditing functions is common and this can be further extended to outsourcing the entire accounting functions of a company. Elements such as bookkeeping, tax management and invoicing could easily be done through the outsourcing platform.
  • 15. - 15 - Chapter 4: Use Project Tracking Synopsis Project tracking is not about being able to complete a project within the stipulated time frame and with satisfying results, budgeting and good management skills. By using the project tracking exercise the idea is to ensure everything is optimized and even better and expected results should prevail or at least present possibilities of this in the next endeavor. When you got to this page, I am sure that you want to change your life If you want to change your life and work from home, click here
  • 16. - 16 - Track It When a project involves the coordination and contribution of several different parties and contributions a lot of confusion can occur to derail the time line when there is not coordination and tracking done. The tracking exercises have many benefits and below are just some of the reasons why it is necessary to have this in any project: Keeping the time line adhered to at all times. The tracking exercise helps to keep each contributing party fully aware of their time allotted to ensure their part of the exercise is completed properly. If there are any problems or discrepancies occurring within the time frame given the tracking exercise will allow for this to be highlighted and thus making it possible for the necessary action to be taken. Tracking also helps to indicate when a particular contributing factor is not yielding the effects it was initially designed to do, thus causing some level of inefficiency. Savings of time and effort can be made when the original design is changed or tweaked to facilitate better productivity and eventual success. The tracking mechanism can also help to detect poorly functioning sections or personnel within the project thus either replacing these or reminding them of the commitment expected of them. This is an especially effective way of ensuring all concerned are fully contributing to the success of the project.
  • 17. - 17 - The tracking exercise can also help the identify areas where cuts can be made to make the general outcome even more cost effective and thus generating a higher profits percentage.

  • 18. - 18 - Chapter 5: Build Strong Relationships With Workers Synopsis A big part of ensuring a company is well run and making profits is evident in how it is keeping those working at the company happy. Happy workers equal good working environments and therefore better quality of work is produced.
  • 19. - 19 - Relationships The key to creating the ideal platform for the working environment lies in the ability to build strong relationships with the workers. When the strength of the relationship is evident the loyalty levels of the workers is also much higher and this is a very important motivational factor. Workers are more likely to go the extra mile for employers who are caring and are concerned about their comforts and the working environment. Some of the practices that can foster strong working relationships are noted below: The manner in which “orders” are given is very important thus one should adopt the attitude of asking rather than telling someone to get something done. Being clear with instructions and what is expected is also something that is highly regarded in the mechanism of getting the cooperation of others. Clarity ensures focused and goal centered work attitudes. Being polite is a great way to gain the cooperation and respect of those working within the project. Without politeness there is a very real possibility of creating animosity with those people who are supposed to be ideally working together toward the same successful end.
  • 20. - 20 - This animosity can and usually does cause the working environment to be severely affected thus effectively damaging the relationship with the workers. Learning to refer to worker by their names is one of the best ways to warm their hearts as it projects the perception of their importance. Recognizing and ensuring that there is no encroachment on the private time of the workers is important. Creating workloads that often require the workers to stay back late thus eating into the own private time will create resentment and this is not good for building stronger relationships.
  • 21. - 21 - Chapter 6: Provide Good Feedback Synopsis Providing feedback is one way of getting people to improve on their current work contributions and also getting people to be more aware of how they can improve. However the feedback exercise should be done in a manner that is neither offensive nor condescending. Frequent feedback given, if done with good intentions and in a constructive manner, will help any business or individual eventually make the necessary improvements which will then be reflected in the elevated success rates.
  • 22. - 22 - Feedback Most companies and employees value feedback especially if it is given in a timely manner. Where there are problems and expectations are not going as first designed then feedback provided can sometimes help to shed light on the shortcomings of particular contributing factors. This is very important especially when the business projections are not being met and even worse, are on the decline. By the feedback given all involved are able to take a step back and view the situation from the viewpoint of the feedback source therefore acquiring better understanding and making the necessary adjustments will be easier. Striking a good balance in the commenting habit is also encouraged. In most cases feedback is only given when something negative has occurred, but a good feedback is also equally important if not more so. This is mainly because it will edify the person, group or company thus spurring them on the work even harder. Providing good feedback can also be done in the form of dialogue. Very often the feedback is given in very much a one sided manner. This is often not helpful to the receiving party if there is little they can do to change the current situation, therefore is the feedback is done in
  • 23. - 23 - an open dialogue style both parties are better able to understand the situation and work out a solution.
  • 24. - 24 - Chapter 7: How Outsourcing Can Help Your Business Synopsis There are a lot of merits to using the outsourcing style to keep the smooth running of any business mechanism and it is becoming more popular to seek this kind of help due to its positive contributions to the business as a whole.
  • 25. - 25 - How It Helps The following are some of the reasons why outsourcing can benefit a business mechanism: Perhaps the most important contributing factor would be the one pertaining to cost. If a company had to explore the possibilities of setting up a separate department for a particular part of the overall work procedures needed for the project at hand, it end up being a rather costly affair. This is mainly due to several issues such as the hiring of new staff, the availability of space for the new workers and the project they take on, the resources and possible assisting tools that may be needed and many more other connective elements. All this when measured against making the choice to use an outsourcing option will in most cases prove to be cost effective. The company can then focus all its efforts in other areas, thus bringing the business to more competitive level in the market. More time can be spent on making the product or business more visible and thus garnering more revenue to the company. There is also no need to have to file documentations that would otherwise have to be done on behalf of the hiring of the new badge When you got to this page, I am sure that you want to change your life If you want to change your life and work from home, click here
  • 26. - 26 - of workers to serve in the project. This is a disadvantage when the services of the workers are only for a short period of time which does not justify the efforts for the above mentioned documentation process. Faster processes can be expected, with the use of the outsourcing option, as the expertise provided will be based on the outsourced capabilities and contributions.
  • 27. - 27 - Chapter 8: What You Have To Be Careful With While Outsourcing Synopsis The following are some reasons why outsourcing may not present the best options of choice for the business engine per say:
  • 28. - 28 - Some Tips One of the foremost concerns when choosing to use an outsourcing company is the almost immediate lost of complete control over the functions and management of the particular part that is being outsourced. Though outsourcing companies will do the job as required as their reputations are also on the line, the standards and mission that drives the customer may not be shared by the outsourcing entity as they have no vested interest in the outcome as a whole. The outsourcing company’s concern would be the profits they make out of the services rendered and the quality of their contributions and almost nothing else. Most contracts drawn up between principals and the outsourcing company is done to the advantage of the outsourcing entity, therefore any problems that arise within the relationship and the work produced will require an outside mediator to handle and this will incur further cost for the principal company. Then there is also the fact that any additional requirements not originally stated in the contract would incur further costs thus perhaps making the whole endeavor cost ineffective as compared to doing it “in house”.
  • 29. - 29 - Security and confidentiality is also another factor to be considered especially when the outsourced work is of a sensitive nature. Competitors will be only too happy to indulge an outsourcing company for information pertaining to issues that may prove to be of help to them. In most cases loyalty is not part of the deal when outsourcing assistance is sought.
  • 30. - 30 - Wrapping Up As in everything there are advantages and disadvantages and the outsourcing options presents no difference. Before any particular choice is made either way the individual should first take the time to explore and understand both views before actually making a decision.
