So why outsource?

So why outsourcing? We here so much about outsourcing to far off exotic lands in the UK media, that surely outsourcing is easy?

As an engineer its easy to jump in and DIY: but that's wholly unproductive. You see, what you learn in business is that something you are great at, something's you are good at, and something's you are adequate at - and the rest is just ego! When someone else can do it quicker/faster/cheaper/better, then - why DIY?

So this project is about outsourcing, and doing what I have found I do best: finding markets, conceptualising the product/service, and then launching. Once its in day-to-day business mode, frankly: I lose my mojo! I am then better to develop or move on, than I am to do the 9-5.

So I am outsourcing for three core reasons:
*Do what I do best/others do best
*Get there quicker/cheaper
*Change and improve my business
