Default Re: Risks involved in offshore outsourcing

Quote:
Yes, even your one outsourced job a year can have an effect. After all, 80% of businesses in the US are small businesses. If each one did this, that's a lot of jobs.
The problem with this is that most contractors in the US don't want to do the small jobs, and when they will consider them they want as much or more than I'm charging the client.

Something else that is happening, that I've taken full advantage of-- the dollar is weak enough so that MY services are much more attractive elsewhere. I've been outsourced to other countries many times.

So . . . what were those effects you were talking about?
