Some things you just can't outsource to India!



I totally laughed out loud when I saw this video on youtube.com! It seems everything and everyone is outsourcing something or other to India. From technical support to virtual assistants, India is servicing a lot of U.S. clients these days.

Simplify's virtual assistants aren't in India - at least not yet! And while there really isn't any need to meet your virtual assistant in person, there are some things that a virtual assistant just can't do. Like, help me with laundry, dishes, tidying up my house, and oh yeah... childcare. Personally, if an assistant is helping me out in my household, I want to meet them and feel comfortable with them.

There's outsourcing and then there's outsourcing.
