10 tasks you can delegate to an offshore employee
The fastest way to get value from an offshore hire is to hand over work that is repeatable, rules-based and currently eating your team's best hours. Here are the ten we see work most reliably in promotional-products businesses.
011–3. Order and quote administration
Entering orders, building quotes from your price files, and raising purchase orders with suppliers. High volume, clear rules, and the fastest area to see time come back to your account managers.
024–5. Supplier chasing and stock checks
Following up ETAs, confirming stock and decoration availability, and keeping your team informed before a client has to ask. It's relentless work that rarely needs to sit with a senior person.
036–7. Artwork coordination and proofing checks
Preparing artwork briefs, checking logos against decoration specs, and shepherding proofs between supplier and client. Detail work that benefits from a consistent owner rather than whoever is free.
048. Data and CRM hygiene
Keeping records, pipeline stages, contacts and product data accurate so your reporting can be trusted and nothing quietly falls through.
059–10. Reporting and inbox triage
Building your weekly sales and margin reports, and triaging shared inboxes so enquiries are routed and acknowledged the same day.
06How to choose your first three
Pick the tasks your highest-paid people do most often that don't require their judgement. Document them roughly, hand them over during onboarding, and expand scope once quality is proven.
