The Benefits of Outsourcing – And the Drawbacks!

I’ve been working online for nearly 6 years and in the last few years I’ve spent over $9,000 in outsourcing various tasks to people all around the world. However, it did take me a long time to get my head round the whole concept of outsourcing i.e. not just from a trust point of view, but with so many tasks on my to-do list it was hard to know which service to use and where to start.

Eventually I managed to put all my doubts about outsourcing aside and I’m so glad I did as my working life is made all the more easier, and I can scale my business so much faster now.

Here’s just a sample of the tasks I outsource:

  • Graphic design
  • Wordpress modifications
  • Website design
  • Backlink building
  • Social bookmarking
  • Press Release writing
  • Article writing
  • Website and blog content creation
  • Website building
  • Market researc

Goal Setting Theory and How To Use It

“My Goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all” ~ Stephen Hawkins

For me the following short quote, by Thomas Carlyle, really sums up what a goal is all about:

“A man without a goal is like ship without a rudder.”

What am I?

At long last I have finally managed to get my blog up and running and I thought I’d touch on a subject in my first post which deals with ‘What am I?’ or ‘What is it I do?’. I’m constantly reminded of these questions because whenever I meet up with friends, friends of friends or even members of my family, up until now I’ve never really been able to give them an answer which they truly understand, or remember. In the past for example I would describe myself as being an Affiliate Marketer, and then I would have to explain in detail what an Affiliate Marketer does. And the same goes for one of my other answers ‘I’m an Internet Marketer’. Jeez, this one took even longer to answer!

And whatever you do, if you ever get stuck on the front row of a comedy club and get asked by a comedian as to your profession, then don’t tell them you have anything to do with t
