Shownotes
This came from a LOT of personal experience, both as the service provider, and as the person who needs to hire some outsourcers. So when I get into the details I’m going to be giving a lot of personal examples from working with past clients and past contractors.
What I’m going to cover is:
-
Understand what type of service provider you’re looking for
-
Give them as much advance notice as possible
-
Provide the context for the work
-
Give them as much information as humanly possible about the work
-
Get clear on what they can and can’t (or won’t!) do
-
