Online Staffing: The Small Business Secret Weapon
Have you ever wondered how your competition seems to have relative ease in staying in business while you're struggling month-to-month to keep the doors open? Most small business entrepreneurs just assume that their competition is somehow luckier than they are, and don't bother to look further into the matter. They resolve themselves to theories such as this:
"
"My compeition must have a rich uncle or something, or in some other way just had more money to start his business in the first place. So they have more money than I do to pay for advertising and marketing, possibly including marketing staff. He can also afford a nicer office than we can, nicer vehicles, etc."
Unfortunately, millions of small businesses who ascribe to theories such as the one above just run themselves into the ground every month trying to stay afloat, while their competition somehow manages to survive with relative ease. Even worse, many more simply give up and go out of business altogether, citing the unfair advantage that their competition seems to have over them. When this happens:
- The lives of otherwise good people, along with their respective families and marriages, endure hardships that may not be necessary.
- The American Dream of owning your own business acquires one more "black-eye"
- American consumers lose the quality of service the American small business entrepreneur could have otherwise provided (everyone knows there is no better quality of service than that provided by the American Small Business Entrepreneur!)
- American consumers lose the benefit they enjoy from private companies competing with one another for their business
Consider this: Giving up based on assumptions such as these is taking the easy way out!
What if your competition DOES have a secret weapon, but it's not a rich uncle, or a big savings account? For example, how much of an advantage would your competition have over you (or would you have over your competition) if you could perform the same services for your clients for a fraction of the overhead of what it costs anyone else do perform the same services?

So you're thinking about starting a small business. You have some overhead costs to consider:
- Office Space
- Office Equipment
- Tools and perhaps vehicles to perform your services (and/or inventory to sell for a profit
These expenses alone are enough to drain the bank account of the average of American. But wait, now you need staff!
Many startups take the attitude of our fathers and grandfathers when it comes to this subject: "I'll just do everything myself." While this sounds like an honorable attitude on its face, especially since thiat kind of work ethic is what our country was built on, working hard is just not good enough anymore! Our parents and grandparents grew up in the Industrial Age, when simply working hard and doing business honorably was enough. We are building businesses in the Information Age, where there technology has advanced to a point in which hard work, honor and integrity are merely cornerstones in the foundation for success, but not the complete picture. This is not to mention the fact that there are literally billions more people on the planet now than there were even a generation or two ago, let alone back 200 years ago when our country was founded. In 21st Century business, small business entrepreneurs need every competitive edge they can find in order to survive. This is where MyOnlineStaff comes in with our customized Online Staffing Solutions for Small Business.
If you're considering going into business, you either have:
- SERVICES you'd like to provide the public
- products you'd like to provide the public
- BOTH of the above
In each case, what will make or break your business is your ability to focus on what earns you profit. Therefore, performing mundane functions such as data entry, bookkeeping functions such as accounts payable and receivables, answering the phones, doing paperwork, placing inventory orders, scheduling appointments, marketing, etc. are all technically non-productive functions, because none of those functions actually earn income. Although all of these functions (and more) certainly can't be sacrificed on the alter of making money, they shouldn't be things done by you if your business depends on you performing the money-making functions of your business. Rather, they should be delegated. But who can afford payroll, especially when you're just starting out? In some cases, the question is, "Who can afford an office? I work out of my house! I don't have anywhere to put staff, and no one with the kind of professionalism I would want is going to work at my kitchen table, even if I could afford to pay them!" Again, this is where MyOnlineStaff comes in with our customized Online Staffing Solutions for Small Business.
For a fraction of what it would cost to hire a regular employee, MyOnlineStaff can meet all of the administrative needs of a small business entrepreneur, even if you're just starting something small out of your house! |
