Episode 21: Outsourcing: How to Delegate or Automate


Listen Later

Rob and Sara discuss the process of outsourcing. They discuss how to evaluate the tasks that can be automated, the tasks that can be delegated, and pare your activities down to the things that can only be done by you. Rob is generally the first to automate and the last to delegate and Sara encourages him to view them both as valuable activities. They discuss various ways in which they have delegated or automated parts of their work and their plans to streamline more in the future. They discuss the benefits of having total autonomy and how it allows you to play with delegating and automating. They realize that it might be a lead loss the first couple times but that knowing how to use the resources makes you more efficient overall. They discuss the fact that a lot of business owners fail to address delegatable and automatable tasks until there are so many they feel the need to hire an employee to help which is oversolving the problem.
