For too long, only large corporations and big businesses have been able to leverage the abundance of skilled professional offshore remote talent based in Asia. Startups and SMEs in the United Kingdom, Europe, and United States have struggled to hire top remote talent due to entry barriers such as the formation of offshore local subsidiary entities, the high cost of outsourcing consultants, and the lack of EOR/PEO service providers servicing this market segment.

Here are the top 4 problems faced by startups and SMEs trying to expand their skilled team capacity and how they can be overcome without spending thousands of dollars on unnecessary things like regional offices, recruitment fees, and consultants. 

Problem 1: I’m a small business owner or SME trying to grow my business but struggling to find entry-level support and admin staff to fill roles in areas like HR operations, Executive Assistants, and Customer Support/Oncall Agents.

Solution: Stop wasting time and money on job boards, expensive job ads, and recruitment fees. Hire qualified, experienced remote professionals for roles in HR operations, Executive Assistants, and Customer Support/Oncall Agents for just $3.99/hour. Get Your Team in Asia today.

Problem 2: We are a tech startup having raised pre-seed or seed funding and looking to hire talented app developers and software engineers on a budget but unable to attract talent due to top salaries and benefits offered by competing for big tech.

Solution: Stop wasting time and money on job boards, expensive job ads, and recruitment fees. Outsourcing projects to IT companies are not cheap and mostly ineffective as the focus is on quick delivery to meet minimum requirements. This conflicts with a tech startup’s purpose being to build a great user experience that evolves over time. Most app development projects go well over 6 months, making outsourcing IT very expensive considering market rates of $50/hour for good freelancers. Instead, simply hire qualified, experienced remote professionals for full-time roles in app development, software engineering, web design, database engineering, project management, quality assurance testing, and cloud DevOps for just $9/hour.

Problem 3: The pandemic (COVID), inflation, and the Ukraine crisis have impacted my business, and I need to quickly cut down direct staffing costs if I’m to survive in the current market. How can I run effective operations while reducing staffing costs?

Solution: Don’t sacrifice entire departments with your top performers to meet budget cuts. That’s not smart. Instead, keep your top performers and make them managers of your extended teams in Asia. We have helped businesses move entire departments in the areas of IT, DevOps, Finance, Design, Human Resources, Customer Service, Tech Support, Sales Development BDMs, and Marketing to Asia with direct wage savings of over 40%.

Problem 4: I’m a tech startup building a digital product but not sure which technical skill sets we need to have in our team. We need advice on types of app developers and good processes to follow when building a product team.

Make use of our CTO as a Service for just $50/hr to help you figure out the best product development stack and software frameworks, skill profiles required, and job descriptions for the roles you need to build a world-class product team.
