Digital age has revolutionized the way things work nowadays and leaves us with an indelible impact that really shifted in every economic aspect whether for big or humble companies. The booming of industries has paved its way to amass the different kinds of methods on cutting cost on workforce and Outsourcing is one of the main reasons why.

Outsourcing is a way used by different companies to reduce costs by referring workloads to other work suppliers rather than completing the task internally. This practice has been proven effective and has given most company whether big or small an edge into completing work faster and cost efficient but with great accuracy and consistency. This also help companies to lessen the workload and time for internal employees and give them more free time to enjoy their social life thus, resulting for more productivity and contentment on their job.

With the involvement of the internet into this scene, most Fortune 500 companies grasp the idea of delegating the task outside their company rather than hiring employees to acquire internally, even Apple has been hooked on this trend and is now outsourcing their other workload to outsiders.

Philippines have been on this limelight since then, BPO companies are rampant in the Philippines and has been part of the economy ever since. Taking the matters online, this just help other aspiring small group of business outsourcing companies to take the matter on their hand and gather this kind of process and reap some profit about it. The increasing popularity of outsourcing websites online such as Upwork (formerly, Odesk), Freelancer.com just to name a few has breed on a new type of micro outsourcing and in the recent poll of Philippine International T.V, outsourcing or freelancing online is one of the highest paid job and has been growing exponentially year after year.

So why choose Filipinos on outsourcing?

• You could pay them even in a small but really fair price (for them).

·       If you’re a startup company, the main concern is how will cut the cost of hiring employees, for foreign companies, there is such a law with minimum wages to consider. This is a hard knock on every startup companies so instead, they must find a way to resolve it. Hiring Filipinos is one of the best ways to do it, why? Because you can pay them much lower than rate if you hire on site.

The rate might be lower but monetary value will be high because the cost of living in the Philippines is low rather than other countries. Besides, I think $500 a month will make any Filipino happy on that rate.

• Filipinos don’t complain.

·       This is a trait that every Filipino has, even you pass them too much workload, Filipinos are willing to take them whole heartedly because it is a Filipino trait that any job should be done with a smiling face at the end of the day. You know, just give them fair salary and it’s all good to go.

• They are jolly to work with

·       As one of the friendliest people in the world, you could definitely think that Filipinos are worth working with. And working in that environment will really increase and balance the ambience and reaching the work goal between client and employee.

Outsourcing sometimes might be kind of risky because sometimes you can never tell what kind of worker you will get into process and you just trust each other online with no physical contact. There will come a time that the agent will make a fool out of the client or vice versa, but that’s just another downside of it. Besides, all things have its own downside but what matters most is how you treat each other to avoid that kind of situation.
