Businesses Turn to Parent Power to Reduce Cost During Recession

Now Hiring

Shelby, NC (PRWEB) August 26, 2010

Business that downside during the recession but still need highly skilled professionals are increasingly relying on work at home parents.

The downturn has created a huge opportunity for parents who don't return to full-time work to use their existing skills to make a living at home.

And outsourcing expert Steve Pritchard from http://hiremyparents.com/?hop=hitman1954 believes it's the perfect way for business to tap into a pool of talent.

He said "This is the work at home outsourcing revolution"

"Business owners are smart to keep their costs low right now, and for many that means reluctantly having to let go of full-time staff"

When professional expertise is needed, many are turning to parents who have chosen to give up their old corporate lifestyle. It doesn't even cost them anything to advertise their projects.

It's the perfect solution. For example a business that can no longer afford a full-time bookkeeper stills needs accountancy help, and they can get qualified outsourced accountant for a few hours a week, working from home."

Steve set up http://hiremyparents.com/?hop=hitman1954 after becoming a father for the second time in May last year.

Like many new parents, he didn't want to retirn to full-time work at the end of his paternity leave and miss out on his daughter's first few years.

The site is like a dating agency for work at home parents, and businesses needing outsourced help.

Businesses across dozens of different sectors past projects and parents pitch for the work.

Many projects contain a mix of work, where some or all can be done at home at any time and the rest while visiting clients.

Using http://hiremyparents.com/?hop=hitman1954 also gives business a huge PR opportunity, as they are authorised to use the official "Supporting Parents In Business" badge in their website and marketing literature.

Steve added "Parent power is going to be the force that helps many businesses through the next year. It's a great way to fill your firm with expertise but no unnecessary costs."
