LEARN BUSINESS OUTSOURCING IN THE PHILIPPINES TO LOWER YOUR OVERHEADS, DO MORE FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS, WHILE PRODUCING BETTER WORKMANSHIP
MIKESBUSINESSTOURS IS ABOUT TEACHING YOU HOW TO GET REAL RESULTS FROM OFFSHORING.
Offshoring is about using the lower costs in countries like the Philippines, where a typical administration worker, well-educated with a University degree using the English language often earns about $100 AUD a week. The skills developed in these offshore countries go well beyond administration. Professions like – IT, accounting, law, marketing/sales, architecture/engineering drafting, even management etc. In short, if it faces a computer or can be seen on video it can be found in the Philippines.
Typically, you will move back office processes initially, such as finance or sales or some administration processes – then along the way, you will discover ways your services can be improved and extended with these focused, loyal and well educated people. Many tour attendees develop new services or businesses from what they learn. The competitive advantage that’s created has been phenomenal. Time and again we see competitors get slam dunked and our attendees businesses go from strength to strength. Costs go down (way down).. service deliverables go up. Improved productivity immediately improves the bottom line.
Many who offshore fail to understand the best strategies and tactics. If done correctly, results are outstanding. The key is to “know before you do”.
MIKES BUSINESS TOURS TYPICAL AGENDA
Actual visitations are often adjusted to suit attendees on each tour and often also change on the day depending on traffic conditions. For this reason, an exact agenda is not possible. If you have been on mike o’hagan’s business learning tour before (repeats are common), please be advised that we change about 20% of the places we visit on each tour. This ensures we always stay on the leading edge.
Arrive a couple of days before the scheduled business learning tour; this lets you settle in.
The dress code is STRICTLY business attire (NO jeans nor runners). The private club where we will be having dinner enforces a strict dress standard.
Dress standard for the day is business casual. You can check out from your hotel; then we start the day with a drive to another part of Manila.
This is a very different day. To start with, we can dress casually. On this day, you can experience various forms of transport – from trikes to jeepneys. For the fainthearted, our van follows.
