Outsourcing in UK?

No certainty in anything. The only thing I know is I need to keep doing this , if I wanna have a proper business in the end. I am torn between dedicating myself to that and contracting , since the latter does give some immediate financial gains , whereas outsourcing is just an idea. -
Am not saying it won't work but I think there may be some difficulties. First off you will end up becoming just a broker. So you will find the business and then ship it offshore. In order to find sufficient business I suspect it will require all of your time. Ultimately your margins are also likely to be squeezed. Then you have the admin, sla agreements etc etc to consider. However things worth achieving are not done without considerable effort so best of luck.Originally posted by 2uk View PostNo certainty in anything.
