Is it possible to outsource too much?


Report: Many U.S. Parents Outsourcing Child Care Overseas

Outsourcing it a growing trend, especially among internet marketers, and it is not just business outsourcing anymore. People have even begun to outsource elements of their personal life. Outsourcing makes sense. If your time is worth $X/hr., why waste valuable time doing something that can be outsourced for just a fraction of $X/hr. When you begin to outsource your time is freed up to focus on more important matters, but is there a point where outsourcing more tasks doesn’t make sense?

I think getting enough is ok.

is that a true video???? outsourcing important activity of life is really a non-sense thing i’d say… Outsourcing makes sense in the business arena,

If any business tasks takes too much of time/cost that can be outsourced and you get most time to focus on strategic business decisions,

I don’t understand why people want to outsource their personal activity??

idris,

I like the idea of outsourcing personal activities because there are some things I just hate doing and would gladly pay someone to do it for so I don’t have to worry about it.
