Value proposition

Perhaps you do have a team or skills to get the work done, but the opportunity of being able to close a good deal may slip through yours fingers due to a tight deadline. That’s where hiring a freelance expert like me can help you speed things up. It’s like having two fully trained teams co-ordinate their work and finish it in half the time you would were you working with just one team. You can also look at it another way. It is very hard to have to do everything on your own. Your life quality may drop, as well as the enthusiasm you once had for your business. With the lack of time and a lot on your hands, you can lose focus and underperform, which is not something your business can afford.  

If you are well organised and get your priorities right, you can make it a rule to always outsource to professionals specialised in the field you need help with. That way you will be getting top-quality services without having to put any effort into it. Your only job is to clearly communicate your goals and what you need done, agree a plan and wait for the results. In the accounting, bookkeeping and business advisory area, the choice of specialities is vast, and even if you had a well-trained professional working for you as a full-time employee, the chances are that they will not have all of the skills to deal with each of the projects you give them in a competent way. Sometimes they will excel, other times they will underperform. By having a freelance specialist like me at your disposal for every single project you do, you will ensure your every move is a success.

Is there a consistent demand for your services all year round? Generally, in the accounting, bookkeeping, taxation and audit areas there are peak seasons. Focusing on them while they are approaching and preparing for them is the only way to push through and maximise the gain. Outsourcing to a freelance expert like me should be on the top of your list. It keeps your workforce flexible. You will not have to go through the lengthy and costly processes of hiring people and letting them go every time your workload fluctuates. Make sure you do it in good time however, as you will want everyone to be on the same page and in tune for the season.

When you are hiring your permanent staff, you can implement the same philosophy I have suggested for outsourcing to a freelance expert like me. Look for excellent professionals, best at what they do and allow them to be in charge and responsible for only those tasks that they can do at a proficient level. Focus on your business’s core activities and make sure you have the team which can fully dedicate to those activities and always keep their performance at an above-average level. This will bring efficiencies that will have a direct impact on your business profit. If you have a team where everyone knows exactly what their job is and they know the best way of going about it, they won’t waste time with the things they don’t really know how to do. Their time is one of your business expenses, in addition to any errors they may make.

Most well-motivated employees understand that there may be times when they have to put in some extra effort. Most of the time, most employees do not mind it. However, if these occasions are common, the pressure to perform and go through large amounts of workload is very likely to negatively affect your employees, on both an individual and a team level. By outsourcing to a freelance expert like me, you will be able to take that stress off your team members and retain employee satisfaction at a substantial level.

It is always useful to have a fresh set of eyes and fresh views of the world, to come up with innovative solutions to any issues your business may be having. This is precisely the sort of added value that a freelance expert like me can bring to your business.
