One of the Clone questions I hear from people is “what do I outsource?” So I whipped up a list of things you can consider outsourcing in your business.
Let me know in the comments what you think, what's missing, or how outsourcing works for you today.
Okay?
As you peruse the list, remember that each of these things can also be considered for systemization.
Outsourcing is just ONE part of the cloning process.
Having strong systems and processes in place increases efficiency in your business.
Efficiency gives you and your team time back and also falls straight to your bottom line (i.e., bring on the money, honey!)
What can someone else do for you, your business, or your clients better than you can?
