Outsourcing is great because we can save a lot of time and you can do what you want but there is a negative effect when you depend everything through outsourcing. So be careful! You have the point.

And your products will be in demand. I bet there's few bloggers who actually create their own. More people seem to be opting for premium wordpress themes now - the ones you have to pay for. I got the Revolution one for this site and Men With Pens customised it. I know when I was looking that it was a struggle to find many really great premium themes, so anyone coming up with a good design would do extremely well.

There are things I find fun, like back-end blog stuff (theme, widgets, plugins) which others don't particularly enjoy. As for outsourcing my own things... I wouldn't mind outsourcing research at some points. Vacation I really don't like anyway, so I can't imagine outsourcing it too. Right now, I’m interested in being the outsourcee for a little while.

I used to have someone in 2 mornings a week and that couldn't work once I started working from home. Hi Ian - £4 per errand is pretty good. Especially if it's saving you an hour. Hi Barbara - as Monika says that does happen. Remember not all blogs are run by an individual either - some have several commentors. I too have outsourced article writing - but only on websites, not my blog. And you are right about the opportunities. Many people will be able to set up businesses to provide all this outsourcing - just look at the company Ian uses - and also Monika's business. Hi Shilpan - thanks. I've already visited your blog a couple of times, as I saw your signature over on Barbara's. But, often I read and don't comment. Outsourcing gardening and house maintenance sounds like a smart move. Thanks Monika - it would be great if you could free up some of your time, rather than turn clients down - especially if the outsourcing costs far less than what you would make in that time. It sounds like you're definitely heading in the right direction. Hi David – once a fortnight is a good idea.

I'm thinking about this right now as my business is at the place on where I have to decide on whether to outsource or cut back on clients. Doing the second would be silly as it could curb my business growth, therefore outsourcing is a must I have to address very soon in seriousness. Thanks for this, I like the idea of outsourcing shopping. Come to think of it I just discovered an organic veg farmer who does home deliveries too. Wooohooo.... @ Barbara: as a matter of fact, yes some bloggers do indeed outsource their posts. I should know since I am at the other end of this equation. While I would never outsource blog posts myself, I would outsource article writing to help me save time. I think in the end what matters is that the outcome is what you hope it to be, regardless of the job you outsource. <em>Monika Mundell's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewritersmanifesto/blogfeed/~3/281153871/' rel="nofollow">Writing Queries - Freelance Writing Guide</a></em> Hey Cath,
