"How To Make More Money, Working Less-
Simple Outsourcing Secrets"
IF YOU DON'T THINK YOU'RE READY TO OUTSOURCE, YOU'RE WRONG!!!
Like always, it's best that you watch the video above for maximum understanding, but if you prefer to read or like learning in multiple modalities, here are the Cliff's Notes...
It’s All About Leverage…
Running a successful internet business is all about LEVERAGE! If you think you have to be a master of all trades, you’re WRONG. It’s all about OPT, and OPS. (Other people’s time & other people’s skills)
All of the top income earners online surround themselves with people more talented than themselves. Believe it or not, there are multi-millionaire internet marketers that don’t even know how to build a simple web page.
A growing trend: More than 150,000 professionals are involved in the $6 trillion dollar global outsourcing industry. (International Association of Outsourcing Professionals)
OK, I Get It… What Should I Outsource First?
Before you start outsourcing different tasks in your business, you need to step back, and get some altitude….
First, place a dollar value on your time. (ex. $50 / Hr.)
Next, place a dollar value on each task in your business.
Examples:
Data Entry: $8 / Hr.
Book-keeping: $35 / Hr.
Product Creation: $95 / Hr.
After you’ve completed these two steps, your action plan is simple: Outsource EVERYTHING that can be done for less than your hourly rate! (start with the lowest level labor first)
Inside The Mind Of A Top Income Earner...
Focus your time on the HIGHEST VALUE activities and outsource everything else!
Don't waste your time doing $2/hr. work when you can have someone else perform the task while you focus on income producing activities.
But Wait, Isn’t Outsourcing Only Something Big Fortune 500 Companies Can Do?
No, absolutely not. Welcome to the global economy my friend!
There are literally millions of highly qualified, college educated people all over the world, that would love to help you grow your business for as little as $2 / Hr.
It’s 100% legal, and ethically sound. Many of the people you will hire are ecstatic to work for American companies because the exchange rates multiply their earning power.
Just remember, they are real people, not foreign robots – so treat them as you would like to be treated! (common sense)
That Leaves Us With One VERY IMPORTANT Question…
What are the best websites for outsourcing?
- www.ODesk.com (our personal favorite)
- www.Elance.com
- www.Guru.com
- www.RentACoder.com
- www.GetAFreelancer.com
Our Favorite Site --> ODesk
Go to http://www.InternetIncomeUniversity.com/odesk
Here are the reasons we like Odesk the best:
- Easy to use interface, very intuitive.
- No monthly fees, it’s FREE to post jobs.
- Easy to manage teams of people.
- We've had great success finding writers, article marketing specialists, website programmers, graphic designers, and even our customer service manager…
How to AVOID Getting Burned
All of the best outsourcing sites like Odesk.com provide an “escrow service” – USE IT…
This protects your investment, AND protects the time invested on the outsourced worker’s behalf- a true WIN/WIN
Be wary of any workers that insist on receiving payment up-front, especially if they want you to send the money outside of Odesk or any other site…
How Do I Find Good People?
Use your best copywriting skills when creating your headline for your job posting.
If you create average job postings, you will attract average people. Have fun with it…
Compare these two job titles (the first one is virtually GUARANTEED to elicit a better response).
“SUPERSTAR Article Marketer Wanted: Consistent Income”
Vs.
“Article Marketing – Upload to Many Sites”
A Million Dollar Tip…
The fastest, easiest way to find the best people on ODesk or any other freelance community is to be PRO-ACTIVE.
After you create your job post, INVITE a ton of people to bid on it, don’t just wait for them to find you…
Invite tons of highly qualified people, see who is interested and you’ll have MORE qualified candidates than you know what to do with…
The NO B.S. Rule…
Don’t hire people unless they have at least 20+ hours logged on Odesk already…The less skilled the labor, the more hours they should have logged…
Read what other people are saying “Feedback” BEFORE hiring anyone.
Between inviting people and looking at their reviews, you’re completely stacking the odds in your favor…
What’s The Best Way To Communicate?
Odesk has a built-in email messaging system.
I prefer to use Skype once I have selected a candidate and actually hired them.
With a simple headset and microphone you can talk to anyone in the world for free via your internet connection. (and even video if you want)
A Quick Recap
If you think you're not advanced enough, or your time isn't valuable enough to start outsourcing, YOU'RE WRONG!
I can guarantee you, if you're reading this right now, you're time is valued at more than $2/hr which means you should be outsourcing anything that you can get done at that rate.
Start with the lowest level labor first, like data entry, basic research, etc... and work your way up to outsourcing more advanced tasks.
There are a lot of costly outsourcing services out there, but you can find help with everything you'll ever need on ODesk, completely free. (you still have to pay the workers of course)

In the end, running a successful internet business is all about creating a lifestyle for yourself and your family.
Outsource EVERYTHING and start enjoying life more! (you can thank me later...)
