Well, I’m back from my Philippines outsourcing tour, and it’s time to share what I learnt.

If you’ve listened to episode 254 and 255 then you’ll be well aware of just how positive an impact outsourcing various roles and tasks to people in The Philippines can be. So I needed to see for myself and I did so on an outsourcing tour hosted by David Warne of Cornerstone Business Solutions.

Joined by five motivated business owners (and fellow SBBMers – you know who you are ;0) it was an absolute eye-opener and mind expander as we visited a variety of outsourcing options and got to understand the various business models available to us.

In this episode of Australia’s number one marketing podcast, I share those business models, plus give you some key insights in to why the Filipino people are the right people for the job.

Yep, it’s another big show. Let’s do it!

INSPIRATIONAL MARKETING QUOTE

“You walk in to class in second grade. You can’t read. What are you going to do if you’re going to make it? You identify the smart kid. You make friends with him. You sit next to him. You grow a team around you. You delegate work to others. You grow your business.”

Malcolm Gladwell
