Cost-effectiveness: We are typically paid on a project basis which can be more cost-effective for small businesses. Hiring full-time employees with salaries, benefits, and overhead costs are a longer more costly investment. Hiring Producing Sales as your independent contractor allows you to put 20-30% back into your payroll compared to hiring a direct employee.
Flexibility: Short-term or project-specific terms. We allow small businesses to scale their marketing and sales efforts up or down as needed without the long-term commitment associated with hiring permanent staff.
Specialized skills: We have specialized skills and expertise in sales, marketing, and business management. Small businesses can tap into this expertise without having to invest in extensive training or hiring expensive in-house experts.
Reduced administrative burden: Hiring Producing Sales, Tim Burrows, and our team can reduce the administrative burden on small businesses. We can free up time and resources for the business owner to focus on other aspects of their operation (focus on the business - not in the business).
Risk mitigation: As an independent contractor, Producing Sales is not considered an employee, which means the hiring small business may have fewer legal obligations and liabilities. For example, providing workers' compensation or complying with certain labor laws. This can reduce the legal and financial risks associated with hiring a direct employee.
Focus on core competencies: Small business owners can focus on their core competencies and business development. Leave the marketing and sales development tasks to Producing Sales. We specialize in these areas.
Product and Service evaluations: Use our team to test the effectiveness of products, services, strategies and tactics, or other markets before committing to a more permanent in-house sales team.
Geographical reach: Expand a small business's reach into new markets or territories.
Reduced training time: We ramp up quickly. Our team often comes with prior experience, knowledge, systems, technology, and processes which can reduce the time and resources needed to get actively selling.
Marketing services are tax deductible: Yes, marketing services can be a deduction. Please consult with your tax adviser to determine how Producing Sales' service applies to your situation.
