Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) is the contracting of specific business functions, such as accounting, digital marketing, or HR.
It should not be confused with the concept of outsourcing as a whole. The difference is that with BPO, you outsource an entire business function (all of the digital marketing, for example), and avoid fragmentation and project management.
The processes outsourced should never be at the core of your business functions. You will benefit from outsourcing the most when your team can focus more on those core functions, rather than trying to learn new skills or by adding more overhead than you need to. Create a win-win for both businesses that enter into a BPO relationship. Instead of having to add a digital marketing team from scratch, give the job to a company that specializes in it – and you will end up spending far less.
Business Process Outsourcing Benefits
There are many benefits to business process outsourcing, given that you manage to find the right partner company. Some of the benefits include;
Cost Reduction
The most popular and talked-about benefit for outsourcing is significantly lower expenses. Full-time employees require space to work in, FICA participation, health benefits, workman's comp coverage, retirement benefits, PTO... and a lot more things with hard costs that add up.
Availability of Experienced Professionals
With no learning curve, no mistakes, and no wasted time to implement the best custom digital marketing plans, you can have a fantastic team working for you in a matter of days.
Focus on Core Business
Startup businesses or established businesses that discover they are getting clobbered by new competition don't have the time or budgets to incur the expense of creating a professional digital marketing department from scratch. While doing it right is essential; chances are, in-house isn't the best place for that. So, by outsourcing to a company that specializes in online advertising and all the other critical elements that are all connected (lots of moving parts) you end up with better processes, better results, and a high return on your investment at a much lower price. Allowing your team to focus on what's important for the company – the core processes that make the company stand out and the ability to make more money for themselves and the company!
More Personal Time
What's your time worth? When you spread yourself too thin not only does your quality of work go down, that balance between work and life does the same thing. Do you love your partner, have kids that are growing up too fast, or maybe have elders that need help? BPO should be the next significant change you make. You deserve to take back those evenings and weekends.
