Ideally you’d already have a person in mind that you’ve passed on work to before and have received great result from! building the Rolodex of strong subcontractors can almost be as important as honing your own skills

[RansburgMakesArt]

Sound advice and one of the cleanest edits I've watched in a long time. Thank you Chris and The Futur team!

[vcat]

You’re brilliant to me.
Count on me to succeed with your advice.

[TwentynineStudio]

Simple strategy for smart people! Thanks for sharing valuable content!

For the right price you can accomplish anything for your client.

Great video - love these quick lessons!

One thing I don't fully comprehend:
How do you comfortably explain the framework of this to the person you're outsourcing? Lets say the client pays you $5, 000 and the person doing the work is charging $1, 000, does it just become acceptable to take the $4, 000 as commission for finding the person?

I get it - but some of the people you would be outsourcing become offended by situations like this or they don't agree it's fair. I would really like to hear a video about being the middleman in this situation and how the relationship and communication between all parties should work.

Don’t over promise just to under deliver. Got it.

[digitalsolutionsmedia]

I have a different approach but this is definitely a good one 👐

[achikandelaki]

eliminate "the middle" (sales rep)
then become one

[jasiraslam]

What if the client is only comfortable working with you not with the other person we are recommending

[haroonpart]

If a project is 1000 dollars
How much should i take from it?
And How much should i give to person who doing that job.

I usually take 30 percent means i take 300 dollars and person who doing i give them 700 dollars. Is that fair? 🤔

[sidwann]

Exactly. That what works for insurance companies and banking. But surprisingly not for Airline businesses. Why?

[DanielKhuu]

So charge more than what you might have if doing it by yourself, hire this person and still navigate the project with outsourcing behind you to claim a small profit and allow your business name to satisfy 1 more customer? These insistent clients have driven me to except the work for *lower budgets* as a challenge and I end up doing *twice* the work for less money, but more learning. While the laerning is good, it is slow and not the most fulfilling work i could be doing for more money and less time investment
