Success… and failure

Posted by Rex | Comments : (0)

Category : outsourcing

Well, I have great news on the outsourcing front. My two outsourcing activities were both a success. I wrapped up one project with one outsourcer and hired them to do another. My second outsourcer is in the middle of wrapping up the somewhat large task I gave her and hopefully we’ll see the outcome shortly! All in all, great results, and I’m happy with my experience on GetaFreelancer.com. So, that part was a success.

The problem? I’m still working 60 hour workweeks. Something is not right. I’ve not reduced my workload, but rather replaced it. It’s going to take some real soul-searching and time analysis to figure out where the real time suck is. I’ll do the analysis and come back with my results soon. Stay tuned!
