Hey Guys,
I'm bored this sunday and it's a rest day so I thought of how to help more advanced guys in the forum get their businesses up and scaled via outsourcing. As some of you know, I run a small group of people here in the philippines that do most of my work so i can chill out and do what i do best, which is managing and scaling.
Now alot of people here want to do something similar and I'd love to just give you an insight on what you need and also answer any questions you might have.
Some of you have been outsourcing to reliable workers and this works. But what i am talking about here is building a team for the long run. A team you can instruct, teach and monitor while sipping margarita or chilling out with your friends and going back to check and see all the work is done for you.
Things you need:
1. Trusted/Knowledgeable people on the ground to manage your stuff.
2. Systemized work and results parameters.
3. Centralized office for better management.
4. Fly down to see the work area (highly recommended but optional especially if you're doing a JV since someone knowledgeable might be on the ground already)
Philippine culture:
1. We want to work hard and do a good job. (I have guys who work 12 hours and i beg them to go home instead of just doing 8 at no extra pay. Needless to say they get a raise all the time
)
2. Loyalty and kindness are second to none, treat them, mingle with them, treat them out to lunch and a few drinks from time to time. treat them right and they'll stick with you for the long run.
3.Easily contented but it is important that you get them to buy into what you're doing and that they understand why.
4.Money and connections get everything done here. If you are looking for a partner look for someone who is well-connected. NOTHING can't be done here with these two things in conjunction. Asian culture.
Just a bit of info on how to build your stuff here. If you have questions/ideas or comments. Just let me know, i'd love to help you out and just so you know i have a very bad ulterior motive. I'd love to have more employment be given to my countrymen by very stable businesses (ie internet marketing=low costs high returns. Very stable).
Thanks for reading!
