ArticlesOutsourcing Can be Key to Success

Being self-employed ishard work and thehours are long, but itis the flexibility of hours that appeals toso many women and

drives them to become self-employed. Mostbusinesses need to develop and grow to maintainsuccess. New ideas need to be consideredcarefully, it is important to clear on the directionthe business is going.

Remember that a lead that may seem smallcan become a much bigger opportunity.. Dont letan initial no put you off. For example Jane,running a cupcake business from home wasasked for a quote for cakes for a childs fairythemed birthday party. The mother decided thatshe would be able to do the cakes herself. A weeklater Jane sent a simple email to the Mother letting her know that she had seen some newfairy cake products available and thought shemight like to know. The mother sent an email backto thank her and she would like to book her after all if she were still available. Jane also receivedtwo more enquiries from other mothers at theparty. Success from just five minutes work!

Work with other business owners that may beable to promote and recommend your business,

you will also be able to recommend their business.Introduce yourself and offer incentives. Janerunning the cupcake business also works withMary , another woman working from home as achocolatier. Their businesses perfectlycomplement each other.

When your b usiness is doing well dont beafraid to look for help. Outsource some of your work, or employ someone during your busiesttimes making this clear this is on an ad hoc basis.Employing the services of a virtual assistant (VA)can give you more time to get on with running

your business. A VA can deal with many tasks,from typing up documents to running your socialmedia campaign. Dont become so over workedthat you compromise your standards.Continue to grow, learn and be successful This article was written by Simple Solutions 4Business Lincolnshire Virtual Assistants.
