Small Business Outsourcing

Small Business Outsourcing: From Detroit to Delhi, is an honest, frustrating and funny account of author Jennifer Baum’s attempts to grow her business by outsourcing. You’d think a simple task like Internet research would be easy to accomplish by outsourcing, but that isn’t always the case – it isn’t always as easy as Tim Ferriss makes it out to be.

But luckily Jennifer has summarized her experiences, drawing important lessons learned, and interviewed other small business owners about their outsourcing ups and downs. In addition to countless anecdotes and tips, the book includes valuable insight from accountants, lawyers and other small business advisors on what entrepreneurs need to be aware of when outsourcing, overseas or not.

The book explores some of the ethical considerations to take into account when outsourcing work – especially if it’s work that’s being done for clients. And finally, if you outsource work overseas, are you ruining your local economy? The book examines that topic, too!
