Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: Inside Outsourcing and the Future of Work with Derek Gallimore

[1:45] – Derek shares something he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.

  • He believes that hard work and grit will lead you to success. There are no shortcuts; you have to put in the hard work. Do the reps.

[2:28] – Derek talks about the future of work as digital, remote, and global.

  • There is a huge trend now with things that can be done online.
  • The future work is digital, and almost everything has recently moved to remote.
  • The world is moving towards a single global economy and workforce.

[4:07] -Derek talks about how work is dramatically changing, especially since COVID.

  • During the pandemic, most people were forced to work remotely. The concept of work dramatically changed.
  • It taught us that technology is available for remote, digital, and global work.
  • We were faced with labor shortages, soaring salaries, and high inflation.

[6:08] – Derek talks about the Great Resignation, labor shortages, and soaring employment costs.

  • Many highly qualified workers are available worldwide, and they are now increasingly connected digitally.
  • Whatever skills you need for your business, they are available globally, and you have the opportunity to access them at a lesser cost.
    • The outsourcing industry is a sleeping giant. It has existed for about three decades.
    • You can tap into a staffing solution and staffing partner to help you build your business.

[10:30] – A timeout to thank our sponsors, HubSpot and Thinkific!

[13:00] – What does the future hold for outsourcing and offshore staffing?

  • Keep in mind that outsourcing is a fancy word for traditional employment. The only difference is that someone is sitting in a different location from you.
  • Treat your offshore staff as you would your regular employees.
  • In the past, only big industries could access the outsourcing industry because the technology was expensive
  • Nowadays, technology is in the cloud, is cheaper and is more accessible.
  • It has a significant impact on the offshore industry, and this powerful tool is now accessible to small and medium-sized businesses across the globe.

[16:06] – How can businesses find highly skilled professionals at a 70% discount?

  • The vast majority of the world has lower salaries than in the US, and their living cost is significantly lower.
  • The Philippines is the center of the global outsourcing industry.
    • $500-$1000 per month salary is a fantastic opportunity for employers and employees.

[20:03] – Why do you believe that outsourcing is the single most powerful tool in business?

  • Businesses are nothing without their people.
  • We are now moving towards the 4th Industrial Revolution, and it is more about professional services, intellectual property, and IT software.
  • People are the most critical part of the business, and with outsourcing your business has the opportunity for growth and innovation.

[24:21] – Derek’s parting piece of guidance.

  • Start to explore options and opportunities for your business, the world, and how employment work are quickly changing. There is a  risk that you can get left behind.
