Hi Judy,

Thank you for your comment.

Letting staff go is never an easy option, especially when you have had a long term relationship.

But consider this, it may be better to let some staff go now and with this help to secure the long term future of the other staff members. The option would be to risk the whole business and all jobs, nobody is going to be grateful for that.

Here is another option for your staff, maybe they could work for you freelance, start their own business and look for other business opportunities to fill the books. You could help them to find some other clients, by giving them the endorsement you gave them in your above comment.

But you are doing the right thing, looking at your over-heads and keeping your business safe.

– Stefan

I have trouble managing my childcare business lately. There are so many things that needs to be taken care of. From housekeeping to teachers ….and not to mention getting people to develop materials for us. I am considering outsourcing some of those jobs..but i also am very concern that some of the housekeeping staffs will lose their jobs. They’ve been around a long time and its going to be a tough decision for me. One option i have thought of is helping them to be employed by an outsourcing company which then assign them to service my center. Hope this will work.

if you consider yourself worth $50/hour then why do something which someone can do for $10/hour

Considering doing this myself, tried a while back but I know of one company that went under by outsourcing everything, so be careful!

Hi,

I am pleased that you’ve covered about virtual assistants, I know that I can’t do everything myself, I’d rather pay someone to do the boring jobs, so I can focus on the more important things.

Many Thanks
