Is your business growing? 🙋‍

Do you need an extra pair of hands?🙋‍

Many small businesses feel they need to commit to a permanent employee, but there is another way.

When you outsource to a virtual expert they can make a difference straight away as they are used to slotting into new roles and have many years of expertise.

You don't need to worry about sick pay, annual leave, pensions, or lengthy contracts. You only pay for the work that they complete.

A flexible solution for delivering a project or ongoing work with no minimum hours.

If you are new to outsourcing you might not have written a brief before. 🙈

The prospect of crystallising your business into a few sentences for a graphic designer, copywriter or other creative to work from may seem daunting.

However, by staying focused, you can write a great brief that will translate into work that builds your brand.

This is what you need to think about:

🧡 What is your house style?
🧡 What does your business do?
🧡 What are you doing that your competitors are not?
🧡 Who is the audience?
🧡 What's it for?
🧡 What is the message?

Hopefully this will have helped with putting your brief together, but it you are still not sure, get in touch today.

I spent a great day at Ipswich Town Football Club yeseterday at an event hosted by Google Digital Garage.

The event was opened by Rishi Sunak with some great digital marketing training from Google and a presentation from Levi Roots in conversation with his mentees, founders of the chicken and wing specialists.

If you’re trying to decide between a bowl of sweets or a pot of free pens, you might be jumping the gun. Instead of starting with promotional items, think about what you want to achieve. You might be aiming to:

🧡 Increase awareness of your brand
🧡 Expand your network
🧡 Gather information about your target market
🧡Find new clients
🧡…or something else!

Once you’ve established your aims, work backwards to decide how best to achieve them.

Outsourcing isn't just for sole traders.

Get Ahead supports larger businesses too, slotting in seamlessly with your regular employees.

Here's how we can help organisations with existing teams to work smarter:

🔸Tasks that don't fit comfortably into anyone's role, as all roles are clearly defined

🔸Unrealistic skill combinations where one person is great at one skill but not so good at another

🔸Natural strengths and personalities across the team. Are there certain skills that are lacking?

🔸Reliance on apps and team don't fully understand the objectives

🔸Holiday/sickness cover - extra help just when you need it

If you want to know how we can help support your team in a completely flexible way, give me a call.
