Why SMBs should invest offshore and outsource to remote developers?  

A recent survey found that 8 out 10 SMBs plan to hire remote workers. 26% of business owners stated that they plan to outsource to help grow their businesses and work with experts. 

If you still believe that remote staffing is just for convenience, you are mistaken. It is actually the most important service your company needs. 

SMBs are often hesitant to hire remote developers. Like, 

  • “It's too expensive for our budget. 
  • “Our business too small to do that.” 
  • “The ROI has not given solid results yet” 
  • It means that we give our processes to people who don’t understand our business. 

Are you ready for a reality check? 

All of the above are just doubts, fears and words. They are all based on inexperience. 

We have found that remote teams can offer many benefits to SMBs. Here are few of them. 

  • Develop processes that work for your business operations 

Small businesses don't have a set of processes. This can be a problem for them. Remote teams can help businesses refine their processes. 

  • More productivity 

Flexible working hours were a major benefit to 45% of employees. Statistics show that employees are more productive when they can choose their preferred time. How does this relate to the above? 

The maximum number of remote development companies make it a priority for both sides to have flexibility. This results in greater productivity. 

  • Infrastructure costs are lower 

It is appealing to build an in-house team. It also comes with a well-designed workspace, convenient location, and low hardware costs. You can now imagine the cost. 

SMBs have the option to hire remote developers and get all they need without having to invest in the above-mentioned items.
