SourceControl: The Truth About Outsourcing

I’m not usually one to toss around affiliate links anywhere but in my sidebar. I’m also not usually one to buy ebook type products without the recommendation of a trusted friend. But SourceControl caught my eye, offered a solution to a question I was debating with myself about, and is damn beautiful and clean, being a UX designer, that’s a good selling point. And after spending the last week soaking in and thoroughly enjoying the authors blog, MuseLife.com, I figured, what the hell. I was pleasantly surprised.

I’ve been thinking alot about jumping on this outsource bandwagon alot lately. I managed to avoid it for the last 2 years since I read 4HWW, and heard all the horror stories. But now I have a need for it, and it’s hard living in such a beautiful place while dealing with so many time-wasting menial tasks. Also I am getting close to launching SHERPA (which I’ll talk more about later) and need some help with transcribing, support desk tasks, ect. so I am not spending 13 hours a day shuffling through a helpdesk requests like a close friend has been doing since his web application launch 3 months ago.

This isn’t really a review, except that I can say that if your looking to outsource anything from web design to calandar management, this ebook is A MUST. SourceControl is the best comprehensive, no bullshit guide to outsourcing and managing your Virtual Assistants, hands down.

I have officially taken the leap onto the outsourcing bandwagon, and I did it with confidence and control. Highly recommended.
