Hey there! If you're new here, it'd be great to have you sign up for my RSS feed. If you need a feed reader, you can download one for free here. Thanks for visiting and your comments are welcome anytime.
You might recognize that gal below to the right. That’s Vera Raposo, a local gal and a long-time student and friend of mine. Several years ago, she looked me up after reading an article about me in the local newspaper and asked me to give her some tutoring help with her website. She was just at the beginning of her online career at this time, but boy has she come a long way.
She’s actually a Platinum Member at Outsourcing Sweetie, which means she works with my own personal team to get a huge chunk of her work done each and every month. She recently wrote to me a couple days into April to tell me:
“Ta-da! I did it.
Actually I’ve made $1000 in the first five days of this
month alone, I’m thrilled!
A huge part is working with OS (Outsourcing Sweetie) and
focusing on planning things out and getting work done when I
had the chance as I was running to many appointments.
If you ever want to do an interview with me for OS or
anything else you need I’ll be very candid and would love to
share.
I’m so thankful that I never gave up, thanks Alice, you’re
really a great person and I feel so happy to have met you.
And guess what?? I haven’t touched eBay in a year and I feel
so FREE!!!”
Obviously, I’m absolutely thrilled for her and proud of my own team at the same time for doing such a great job. I have taken Vera up on her offer of an interview and we’ll be recording and transcribing it this week.
I will make that interview available to my readers here at some point, or if you want to be the first to know when it’s ready, just join us for a $10 sneak peek at Outsourcing Sweetie. If you’ve been trying to get more done without so much darned work, you’ll be glad you did.

This is so encouraging to read. Recently I came up with a number of new ideas for building my business, this was exciting but daunting as I have current work that is always demanding my attention. During my shower this morning I started thinking about better ways of dividing up my day so that I could achieve more than I did yesterday.
But you know what - it’s not going to work. It’s already 11:15 a.m. and I’ve already blown 2 deadlines. I seriously need to think about oursourcing.

Yikes, Sharon…sounds like you could use a hand.
We’re proud of her for sure, Tricia! I just finished recording, so as soon as we have the mp3 and transcripts, I’ll be publishing for everyone.

Thanks to all and to Alice. The interview went really great and I’m thrilled to have managed to really produce big results since using this outstanding team. It’s all very exciting!

Awesome news. I’m slowly getting over a lifelong control freak addiction and starting to outsource.
I may just take another look at the sweetie
