What would you do with an extra $1500?

I was just curious what people would do with an extra $1500?

Would it get your business off the ground?

If somebody asked me this, I would reply: Hire outsource people and let them do my content (article) creation, link building management and other simple tasks that take quite much time when done myself. I would have a manager who would manage these outsourcing people. The manager would have a vision of his own, my guidance HOW to think and what to do.

In some eBook someone wrote "The less you do, the more you make" and I also agree with this: "Money attracts money"

I would love to hear people's opinions on this!

    I used to think this way too. But after several trials and errors, I realized it's much easier said than done - and the issue lies with who you hire...

    It needs time to train them to do this. and you definitely need to train them well before you can hands off.

    Simple tasks can be outsourced easily but getting a project manager to manage this takes time to train him or her.

    So my take is, it takes multiple $1,500 to be able to roll it big.

      Thank you for this insight.

      So it really comes down to the person who you hire?

      I have had some people do some posting at some classified ads and some account creation. But I do understand that having them do more complex tasks might be difficult.

    It really depends on where you are in your business circumstances.

    If you are just starting out you aer probably best suited to leave it in the bank and work on some free traffic building techniques, SEO and free blogs.

    If you know what you are doing then you may want to outsouerce some work.

    I think you should train them before you let them do a task that maybe complex.

    With an extra US$1500 I would get a new laptop, renew my technet membership, and sign up for the eCornell Human Resources Management course on Selection and Staffing: The Selection Process.
    Why?
    My current laptop is getting old. I need to be up to date on the latest IT developments specific to the Windows platform. I want to know more about hiring people. Respectively.
    It's all in the interest of being able to manage my online activities better.

    an extra 1,500 can be invested to create new sites.

    More than enough for at least 2 quality sites

    $1500? I would hire some news writers and try and take down my local paper by focusing solely on local content. Some call me evil, I just call it getting revenge... lol
