If you are running an online business chances are more than likely you are working too many hours. There is a solution that can help you get the work done and help free up your time and energy to do those aspects of your business that you are passionate about, and that is hiring college students to do the work you don't want to do.

College students today are facing skyrocketing tuition and housing costs, and they have limited time for a part-time job and sometimes limited transportation to get to a job off campus. They need work that they can do on their computers (or even on their smart phones) from their dorm rooms, or where ever they happen to be during the course of their day. You need smart, capable, English speaking people who are willing to do the tasks that you either do not enjoy, do not have time for, or lack the skill to do.

What are some of the tasks that you might outsource to college students?

· Writing blog posts, articles, press releases
· Creating videos
· Blog commenting
· Social bookmarking
· Submitting articles to directories
· Building back links
· Graphic design
· Virtual assistant tasks

These are just a few examples of some of the tasks that if someone else were doing them it would free up your time to do your most valuable work. Also, as these tasks are being completed on a regular basis, your traffic will grow in quantity and in quality.

Where do you find college students to do outsource work?

You can search the online job sites such as odesk.com, elance.com, freelance.com and the dozens of other sites where you can connect with freelance workers. You can place an ad on craigslist.org, or find some forums where college students hang out and post your announcements there. Here are some things you'll want to cover in your job announcement:

· What kind of work is it?
· What tasks do you expect them to do?
· How many hours do you expect them to work?
· How much will you be paying them?
· What skills or equipment do they need to do this job?


One option for getting all of this work done for free is to create an internship program where the student does these tasks in exchange for the training that you will be providing to them. Establish a fixed period of time where they will train with you and perform the tasks required so that they can learn the skills. When their internship ends they are free to use their skills to run their own web business and make money for themselves.

Hiring college students to do outsourcing work can be a win-win for both parties involved. They get work that they can do on their computer from their dorm room to earn extra money and learn some new skills, and you get the essential help that you need to keep your traffic and revenues flowing in your business while giving you time to focus on the tasks that you actually enjoy doing.
