re: Outsourcing business functions |

1. Do you outsource any of your business functions? Yes
2. If so, what? Advertising, PR, Accounting
3. If not, why?
4. For those who are outsourcing, what contributed to your choice of business or person to whom you have outsourced?
Accounting - The person I work with is a professional CPA that deals almost exclusively with small business owners. Helps us not only with taxes, but also financial planning and tax planning for our business. We don't have his skills internally, so we need to outsource this so our bookkeeping is taken that extra step to ensure everything's correct.
Advertising/PR - We have employed contractors that are very strategic about these things. We don't do them internally because we're too close to our business. We can't take that step back to see what kind of advertising/PR would be most beneficial to our business. It is imperative for our success that we do not do absolutely everything internally. Otherwise, we probably won't grow much. Besides, outside folks have unique perspectives to share with us to help us be more strategic about all aspects of our business.
Thanks for asking...I hope these answers are of help.
Cheers, Colleen
