Internet Outsourcing Workshop -
Internet Outsourcing Workshop
There are people all over the world that are willing to work for you or your organization. Do you need a marketing expert? Someone to create logos or design your website or create a mobile phone app? How about a virtual administrative assistance to handle some mundane (or not so mundane) activities so that you have a little more free time. Did you realize that you can pay someone on the Internet $5 to write a song for you?
Internet outsourcing allows you to hire workers on the Internet in much the same way you purchase products on Amazon. Potential new hires have detailed descriptions of the work they’ve done, there are comments and star-rankings from previous “employers” and you can refuse to pay if you don’t like the work they’ve done. You can also offer a bonus if they do a great job. Hire workers from Indonesia, India or Indiana – people from all over the planet are available in these emerging Internet worker markets.
So whether you could use a ghostwriter, an electrical engineer or telemarketer, come to this workshop and learn the pros and cons of hiring people from the Internet.
Doug Allen, President of Allen’s Consulting, is the presenter for this workshop. He is a prominent leader in the Kansas City technology community with over 30 years of experience in the Information Services industry. For the past two decades, Doug has served as CIO for Pioneer Financial, JCCC and Franklin Savings & Loan. He has authored two published books and several personal computer technology courses. He has developed and presented 30 different seminar topics around e-learning technologies, networking software applications and Internet research. Doug has also served on multiple advisory panels for companies such Microsoft, Compaq, ComputerLand & SCT and currently is a member of the Silicon Prairie Association.
