Excerpts:

• Jump to page 19 and check off the first item. You’re about to accomplish your first task. Then come back here to learn more about what you’ll discover. (page 13)
• This is because by the time you’ve discovered a new task that’s perfect for outsourcing, several other buyers have done the same and contracted with your coder before you even had a chance to say, "Knock Knock… Are you busy?" (The answer will always be, ‘yes.’) (page 32)
• Numerous opportunities for outsourcing IT tasks are abound through RentACoder (vWorker) – making this resource the instant hit that it is. (page 41)
• The statutory worker performs tasks according to specifications, but again, RentACoder (vWorker) contractors don’t do this kind of stuff. (page 54)
• We additionally describe specific IT tasks that are fit for outsourcing not only online, but through RentACoder (vWorker) as well. Then we compare that to the types of tasks that are actually outsourced at the website. (page 60)
• If additional tasks obstruct the flow of existing work performance, a coder may oblige but then add the cost of completing them to an existing contract. (page 85)
• Operational risks address the consequences of outsourcing business processes (business tasks). (page 96)
• As an employee, you’ll need to get permission or approval to outsource certain tasks since at several key points, you’ll represent the company you work for and make some life or death business decisions throughout the lifespan of an outsourced project. (page 111)
• These are people who after all, performed different tasks. If they’re working on a new project – the outsourcing project — who’s going to fulfill their prior job duties? (page 129)
• Remaining documents should describe specific job requirements and they should reside in their own task or job-related folder. (page 132)
• Study the material and start documenting each and every task involved from start to finish. (page 142)
• The series of screens that follow comprise RentACoder’s Bid Request Wizard, which fortunately removes a lot of the guesswork that often accompanies the task of writing job requests and outsourcing contracts. (page 185)
• Preparation tasks (like employee training or formal introductions to other co-workers and a company’s top customers) take time, but they cannot be included as a project’s palette of labor tasks. (page 292)
• Outtasking defined, is “hiring out” small tasks of an entire work process. People who hire out individual “parts” of a job – outtask. Outsourcing defined, is “hiring out” an entire work process – individual tasks and all. (page 365)
