As a business mentor, I get asked regularly what I think people should outsource in their business. But this is not about that. This isn’t about having someone handle your accounting, social media, or design. This is about what you should outsource in your life and WHY. Not a business owner? Keep reading!
TBH, you probably don’t need to outsource in your job as much as you need more time to LIVE. For me, it is the culmination of work tasks, family obligations, house keeping, etc. The mental load can weigh us down beyond measure.
SO, what should I outsource then?
Your Laundry 🧺
When you start posting regular content on TikTok you will get brand collaboration requests. Some are awesome, some are you know…not great. Last week a truly intriguing request slid into my inbox. A nationwide company that will pick up your laundry, wash it, fold it and deliver it to your front door in about 24 hours.
I know, I know…it sounds like a dream. But it is reality. All you have to do is download the SudShare app, create an account, schedule a pick-up and leave it on your porch. Seriously. They even sort it for you. All for $1 per pound of laundry. For reference, our HUGE laundry monster was 67 pounds. This is like a month of adult clothes.
They are nationwide and growing, like Uber for your laundry. Game changer. Watch PART 1 & PART 2 of my SudShare experience!
If your space is starting to make you feel like you’re going to lose your mind, it might be time to outsource to a professional organizer. We highly recommend Living Simply Pittsburgh for our Pittsburgh friends.
Cleaning 🧼
Second only to laundry on my list of “mundane tasks that make me unhappy” is cleaning. I LOVE a clean house, but taking the time to scrub my shower with a toothbrush is just like…not at the top of my list. Hire a cleaning person.
Look, the bottom line is that outsourcing for your LIFE might make it easier to get ahold of your job or business. Maybe you don’t need someone to do XYZ in your business, but having your laundry done would change your life. You matter. Your sanity and your time are important. So go ahead, outsource the things that you don’t want to do.
