Outsourcing may facilitate most of these tasks and help focusing on the main activities. The entrepreneurs of advanced countries have already given credit for such advantages long time ago: a possibility to save time and money (the companies do not have to outfit extra working stations, purchase or rent vehicles, build warehouses, go to perform the customers’ queries, etc.), ensure the quality of services rendered (outsourcing companies usually have extensive experience and give a lot of attention to the specialist qualification), cut down the expenses for personnel hiring and training.
