When is it worth using an outsourcing company? How can it help your company?
When should you decide to outsource?
Sometimes you want to offer your customers a full service, but you don’t specialize in all services. For example – you work in a marketing agency and your team is great at traditional marketing. However, you don’t have anyone to handle online marketing which requires a lot of knowledge and time. You don’t want to hire new people – you can choose to outsource your online marketing services.
Second example – you have a digital marketing agency and want to extend your services to website development for clients. You need to hire competent web developer. Or you can work with an external WordPress Development Agency, many of which work in white label model.
White label option?
One of the forms of outsourcing may be work with a white label agency. The white label model means that external company will do the work on your behalf and sign it with your branding. This company doesn’t use theirs branding or introduce as themselves to your client. Instead, the agency uses your branding and your company name. If they communicate directly with your client, they will use your company name and logo. As a result, communication with consumers is consistent and it’s not confusing. Meanwhile, your company is perceived with much more competence.
Be more efficient!
Working with an outsourcing agency is very profitable if you want to provide a full service to the customer. Some of the services are in a need much less frequently, so it may not be profitable to hire a new employee to specialize in this particular field of work. You can delegate your work to a team of specialists and be sure that it will be done well.
Sometimes you outsource work not because you don’t have a specialist on hand – but because that particular specialist has currently too much work. Outsourcing of simpler tasks to a company allows your team to focus on the most important assignments or on communication with the client.
