Why Outsourcing Is Both Useful and Eco-Friendly To Your Business Solutions

Julie Starr • October 26, 2021



During the past year, you might have considered outsourcing various logistical solutions to other companies or business specialists, more so than you would have done prior to the pandemic. 

Outsourcing can provide a great solution to your business needs because you are effectively paying for the professional advice of another business partner, instead of having to pay for a fixed yearly wage, when you might not need this role filled all the time. 

So here are some positive reasons why you might want to consider remotely outsourcing certain roles in your business. 

Allows You To Remotely Outsource The Required Roles

With the advancement of technology that exists today, it is extremely easy to organize a remote business chat with another partner/individual to discuss the practical solutions that need addressing. You can then agree to what needs to be completed, the finer details of the project and the required deadline. 

Saves You a Journey and Reduces Your Carbon Footprint  

If you constantly need to travel throughout the working week, driving from one business location to the next to meet your business contacts, you can certainly build up a great deal of mileage. However, when you outsource remotely, you can organize and communicate your business ideas via email, on the phone, or through video chat. 

This enables you to discuss ideas without having to pollute the environment with multiple driving trips. It saves you the bother of physically running around during the day, when you can just focus on other aspects of your business, whilst the individual you have outsourced the role to, can complete it in the necessary time frame and inform you when it’s ready.

Enables You To Get Jobs Completed That Are Not In Your Area of Expertise

You may want to complete all the jobs in your business but realistically you are not going to be good at everything, so any roles you are not competent in can be outsourced to another company or individual. If you wanted to improve your business reporting but were not sure how you could utilize an accounting practice management software to help boost this area of your business. You would be able to outsource this aspect to a group of individuals that are proficient in this sector, enabling you to continue with your day fulfilling the roles you are most competent in. 

Allows Your To Build Up a Rapport With Other Business Professionals

The business world can be quite competitive but it can also be a great platform to learn and share ideas with others. When you outsource various roles it enables you to build a rapport with a different company or specialist which could be useful later on when you require a favor or the other business may do a deal with you and advertise your business brand on their own platform. So establishing a new rapport can be beneficial to your business needs.

Blockchain for Sustainability: Cutting Through the Hype with Strategic Communication

By Julie Starr • April 28, 2025
As blockchain continues to gain traction in sustainability circles—from tracking carbon credits to improving supply chain transparency—more organizations are exploring how these emerging tools might support their ESG goals. But with innovation comes complexity, and for many stakeholders, blockchain still feels like a black box. That’s where communication becomes essential. At Taiga Company, we work with clients to simplify complex sustainability narratives without oversimplifying the value.

6 Things All Modern Businesses Need in 2025

By Julie Starr • April 22, 2025
If you’re starting your own business, then you know all too well that it’s equally an exciting and overwhelming time. There’s so much to think about, and you want to get it right from day one. But it doesn’t have to be as overwhelming as you might think. Let’s go through everything your new business needs to hit the ground running this year. A Clear Business Plan Before anything else, take the time to figure out your game plan. This doesn’t need to be a long, boring document that you’ll never look at again. Think of it as a simple guide that answers three key questions: Who are you selling to? What are you offering? And how are you going to get noticed? Once you’ve written that down, you can always tweak it as your business grows. From a communications standpoint, clarity on your audience and value proposition also sets the foundation for authentic brand storytelling—something Taiga Company helps clients refine at every stage. Responsible Financial Management Money is one of those things that can make or break a business. The good news is you don’t need a finance degree to get it right. Start with a simple budget. Know how much is coming in, what’s going out, and what you’re setting aside. Think about things like stock, marketing, bills and wages if you’re hiring. Keep it realistic and keep it updated. Doing this from day one will make life much easier later. Reliable Cloud Services In 2025, storing everything on your laptop isn’t really a safe bet. Files go missing, computers break, and you don’t want to lose important stuff. That’s where cloud services come in. They keep your files secure, backed up and easy to access from anywhere. Whether it’s documents, customer info or creative work, having it all saved online gives you peace of mind. And when you're building a business in a digital-first world, having secure, accessible assets also means your team can collaborate more efficiently across channels—essential for strong communications. Flexible Payment Options Most people don’t carry cash anymore, so if you’re only accepting it, you’re going to lose sales. Get yourself a card reader that takes all the usual stuff like debit cards, credit cards, contactless and Apple Pay. The easier you make it for someone to pay you, the more likely they are to buy. Simple as that. A Basic Website Even if you’re not selling online, you still need a website. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Just something that tells people who you are, what you do, and how they can contact you. Think of your site as your digital front door. If someone hears about your business, chances are they’ll look you up online. Make sure what they find actually helps them. A clear website is also one of the most powerful communication tools your business has. We work with clients to ensure their digital presence reflects their story, purpose, and value. A Way to Spread the Word You can’t rely on people just stumbling across your business. You’ve got to put yourself out there. Social media is a great start, but don’t stop there. Think email newsletters , posters in your local area or even just chatting about your work whenever it comes up naturally. The more you talk about your business, the more others will too. Starting a business in 2025 is a big move, but it doesn’t have to feel impossible. Get the basics in place, stay flexible and keep learning. With the right tools and the right message, you can build momentum and create connection. Taiga Company helps growing businesses translate operational essentials into brand trust and long-term impact.
