[GET] Outsourcing Resources

Hi all,

I’ve got a lot out of this forum over the last few months and so have decided to start giving back.

I’m going to upload what I hope are useful resources for those of you who are considering leveraging your operations by outsourcing tasks.

What I would have found really useful when I was first starting outsourcing is a timetable/plan for structuring the outsourced tasks (and guiding your workers) and instructions/training for the workers.

First up for sharing is our basic Outsourcing Tasks Timetable (for SEO/site promotion).

Code:

As you can see, we divide up the week by day then by hour and assign a task to each unit of time. Feel free to mix this up and allocate the time in any way you think works best – we have just found better results by avoiding choping and changing the task a worker does during the day. Better to get a full 3 hours at one type of task then change to another task for 3 hours.

I will upload other Timetables for content creation and product creation later and hopefully some ‘training guides’.

If anyone else has similar resources that they care to share, feel free to add to this thread and hopefully at the end we will have a nice resource for those looking to outsource.

Please feel free to PM me with any questions.

Thanks – JohnnyC
