• Im a BIG believer in outsourcing to grow your
  business!

3

• I started outsourcing 7-8 years ago
• I began by hiring a VA for only 5 hours per month
• I budgeted that money prepaid her so there were
  no surprises at the end of the month

4

• She told me when I had only 1 hour left so I
  could prioritize those last tasks
• If youre just starting to outsource, start small
  with a few hours

5

• It takes time to see the benefits of outsourcing
  so dont give up too fast
• I was working really hard but realized I needed
  help with my customer service

6

• I was spending 10 hours per month just on
  customer service duties
• I couldnt focus on new programs or products
  because I was answering their questions

7

• Anyone could answer those questions, so I hired
  my VA
• Now I have a team of people who handles customer
  support plus a manager

8

• When youre ready to outsource, look for Online
  Business Managers, customer support agents or
  virtual assistants to help you
• My team knows how to answer questions resolve
  problems better than I do!

9

• Make those hours that youre buying from them
  really count!
• Put your skills to work during that time
  consider it a reinvestment into your business
