I have been killing my self working 20 hour days 7 days a week trying to run a small merchandising business. I found a distributor that is willing to work with me and out sourced all the work. The plan is to make lots of money and retire on the beach in a few years. I will let you know how it works out.

I don't have the time or experience to load all my products and make sure they are in the correct category. Does anyone know a person or company that could do this job for me. I need it done ASAP.

The percent of mistakes, miscommunication, failure to meet goals are no great outsourcing than using domestic resources. The risks are the same. There are some precautions that should always be followed. First, the site should have testimonials from live-sites, and recommendations that can be verified. Without this, one should not contract for any work foreign or domestic. There should be a very specific statement as to exactly what work is going to be done, the schedule and a payment plan that is timed to actual performance landmarks. Pay with paypal, because if there is a problem you can file a dispute through paypal. If you use a "freelancer" site, make sure it's one that has customer reviews but use them with caution, these are easy to set up. For SEO there is no reason at all to avoid outsourcing, because you can see how good the company is by virtue of it's own search results. If they can get to the top of Google for terms related to SEO then they know their business, it's very competitive. It is always best to get referrals, but in any business transaction there are risks and standard precautions that should be taken in making any deal.
