What is wrong with "outsourcing" things that don't fall into your area of expertise? As far as I'm concerned, a biz savvy guy "outsourcing" his tech job for a fee is not very different from buying toothpaste from the market because I don't know how to make a good one myself ... or like consulting a dentist to figure out which toothpaste is good for me.
- statictype 16y agoIt's fine as long as what you're outsourcing is not core to your business model. If you're running a software company (and the startups referred to in the article are software startups I believe) then outsourcing the core product you want to make money off of is a poor strategy. If you're doing a restaurant startup, then by all means, outsource the software that runs your place.
