This is a copy of an article written for The Net Effect The Next Step in Your Outsourcing Process To Get Your Virtual Dream Team On Task and Running Your Business Without You! My biggest take-away from Live 10 last month was the concept of “team leaders”. Over the last few years I have made it a practice to outsource as much as possible. This last month I was finally able to out-task one of the last steps of my routine tasks to my assistant and what a relief! As I write this I am traveling with my family (my husband and 7 children) for a month long vacation! We are driving through the beautiful mountains of Mexico on our way to Guadalajara. After that we will be stopping for a few days in Mazatlan before making our way to the states! I do this knowing that my business is in the good capable hands of my two project managers! Learning to out-task your business and replace yourself is not something that is easily done. It is a process and something that takes time to learn, but once learned, the benefits are great! Is your business completely dependent on YOU? (more…)

As we know by now, the number one way to get free traffic to your website is to write great articles and post them on article sites such as Squidoo, Hubpages and Ezinearticles. However, if you are an internet business owner you know how difficult it can be to find the time to write quality articles. Writing quality articles does take time and there really isn’t a quick way to write new content. Sure, there are programs out there that can help you spin articles and create lots of articles from one main article, but you still have to write the main article and then you need to format it for spinning and these articles aren’t always the best solution for article sites. So, while you may know how important article writing is to your business, you may be struggling on how to fit it in to your marketing strategy. This is why you should definitely start by outsourcing your Hubpages. This important aspect of internet marketing cannot be put aside. Outsourcing these types of time consuming tasks can be the perfect solution for busy internet business owners that may not have the additional resources to have someone in house (more…)

In many cases you can find people that are very knowledgeable on exactly what you need done, so there is no need to invest your time, effort and money in training an employee that you may have to let go in a few months. A great task that can be very easy to outsource is building a company Facebook page. Facebook is a great resource for reaching people (more…)
