Human Resources Department or HRD of any business enterprise knows how the increased stress and work pressure during the busy season may adversely affect the staff’s productivity of a firm.

Sometimes, out of sheer frustration due to amplified work pressure and constant vigilantism, many employees leave the organization instantly – that they should not have done otherwise. The new HR statistics reveal that 57% of the companies and organizations consider employee retention as a big issue all across the globe.

Accountants, sales staff, and administrative wing of a company suffer the maximum due to a sudden increase in the employees workload during the peak season when the general intensity of a company is to sell more and more.

It is something that is inevitable that once the busy season arrives, a company or any other organization has to be ready for it to work continuously around the clock without a break. However, prior management of critical HR issues before the arrival of a peak season is the finest way to move forward, and handle such challenges in the best possible manner.

As stated in the previous point, the selection of appropriate client is an ideal strategy to move ahead. Usually, bad clients create maximum problems during peak season. So, they should be addressed first.

Now, a company and its HR department have to entrust its employees with the responsibility of separating a list of prospective clients from the undecided customers. The Aberdeen Source claimed that the companies, which formalize employee engagement programs, have 26% higher annual revenue growth rate than those who do not.

Creating a list of perspective and positive clients during the peak season is a good idea. So, the staff should personally make a courtesy call and apprise them of the latest company offer.

Business organizations are increasingly allowing their staff to use independent attitude during their work.

The staff members use their liberal attitude towards resolving a management crisis, which sometimes includes going against the owner’s wishes too.

The owner should also demonstrate helpful attitude during the busy season. Employees are the ones who have maximum stress in such days.

The employer should allow them for early checkout and family dinners during the weekend once or twice occasionally as a morale booster.

Ensuring work-life balance between the employees is a good way to keep their interest alive in the firm.

According to the US Economy Statistics, employee disengagement is a nagging experience in the firm. It costs more than 500-billion USD per annum to the nation’s economy eating away a lion’s share of the country’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product).

The standard working hour is 40-hours a week. However, a firm or a business organization should be little proactive in this regard.

During the demanding season, a firm can enhance the working hours to around 10 hours per day equating to around 50 hours a week, which is very reasonable considering the demand of time.

However, immediately following the busy season, an employer should be well prepared to grant long-holidays to its staff.

This will keep them refreshed and rejuvenated around the clock.

The employees are the bedrock of any organization. They work severely hard for the organization and want to acknowledge it by the employers from time to time.

An employer from his effort should try his best to keep the office environment calm, amicable and friendly.

A business owner in consultation with his HRD manager should take his staff on the weekend parties.

According to the Wynhurst Group Statistics, 22% of new employees leave their jobs within a month of being hired due to temperament and ego issues.

Therefore, an entrepreneur should try to maintain a good bonhomie with its staff in whichever way the same is possible.

If required, the business owner should never refrain from offering free meals in the form of luncheons and dinners at pleasant restaurants or food joints.

In their effort to keep things hyper-professional, business owner and HRD departments sometimes add undue non-work related tensions to the minds of the staff.

And surprisingly, if such tensions arise during the peak season, then it may seriously aggrieve the organization’s staff.

A comfortable working environment relates to comfy dresses, clothes, and slippers instead of shoes.

When employees come to the office in their home clothes, it gives them a greater amount of comfort while keeping them in a relaxed state of mind.

According to Quantum Workplace Survey, 20% of the employees do not have enough faith in their employers.

They feel that employers are best at pointing out their mistakes instead of offering constructive and regular feedbacks for the benefit of the firm and its staff as well.

Of course, higher the level of employee’s loyalty, lesser will be their chance of leaving the firm abruptly.

The HR department on its part should focus on retaining employee’s loyalty rather than coercing them to sign bonds or any other such documents to retain them for a certain specified period.

The conflict resolution and handling any official conflict at the earliest are the apt way to proceed ahead.

When such issues are blown out of proportion then it is likely to affect the company’s overall goodwill and credibility in the market.

Especially, during the peak season, when the company’s revenue generating capacity is the most with humongous sales round the clock, then both the parties, including the employers and employees will have to exercise utmost caution while addressing their mutual differences.

From the employer’s and HR department’s point of view, retaining a long-lasting relationship with the ex-employees and senior staff sounds apt for the company.

Ex-employees are well versed in the company’s norms and requirement and no doubt; their productivity will be multiple times more than other employees will.

In small countries of Europe, the demand for ex-employees is on the rise.

A recent statistical study from Europe states that by 2020, the continent is looking forward to providing gainful employment to the people.

Their target includes people aging from 20 to 64. It includes both the newer as well as retired employees. 

With improved employee engagement programs, the employees would be able to perform better in their duties.

During the busy season, the deadline for any work is short and an employee has to work faster.

Better employee engagement programs will let them perform to their full potential.

Content marketing has now evolved out as the simplest way to get more and more leads without putting pressure on the company’s owner and treasury department.

Actually, after the penetration of internet in human life, everyone spends around 8 to 11 hours daily on the computer. Well, during this period, they also read several things online and get motivated to purchase from e-commerce portals too.​

Despite the immense potential of content marketing, entrepreneurs hardly look after this aspect of digital marketing. According to a survey, content marketing costs 62% less than any other form of marketing that the company explores for lead generation purposes. 

It involves a few simple tips and tricks as given below:

Creating valuable contents in the form of personal anecdotes that how a certain product changed the life of a person or how it benefited him or her most, really work well.

To be specific, such videos are always result-fetching and people love to view and listen to such videos. That’s why so many promotional videos are already there on Youtube and several are launched every day.

The basic rule of content marketing is to offer problem-solving and helpful contents to readers. Nobody likes to read the boring and monotonous thing. Readers want solutions.

Time is changing, now people love to read more about favorable things as compared to other stuffs. So, contents should be written from a positive angle and must be a tutorial in nature so that people feel engaged while reading the contents.

A firm has the option of offering right and valuable data to readers only on the conditions that they have to mention their contact details into it.

It is well-known that people hardly read or even see advertisement these days. In 2015, survey around 200-million people already installed ad-blocker in their system. So, it is only via content marketing, that a firm gets greater reach to wider prospects for a lead generation.

The latest idea is to offer useful content to reader or user only when they subscribe to the blog or enter their contact details at the blog site. It works well. Once a brand gets the contact details of the users or readers, it can then consult them on the appropriate timing for digital marketing.

Another useful and highly interactive way to get maximum responses in content is by posting motivational contents or interviews of entrepreneurs or others who accomplish big in their lives.

The latest statistics on content marketing say that 60% of the brands or marketers necessary write at least content in a day and publish the same online. Now, the type of content may vary from brand to brand, but many of them publish motivational and inspiring interviews with other entrepreneurs to generate B2B leads.

From the viewpoint of digital marketing, identifying one’s potential lead is extremely important. It helps a firm zero in on the target audience by delivering them the right content at the precise time. 

Any content for the target audience should be complete in all respects with the exact information. Verify those details with appropriate evidence and ensure they benefit the readers in the real life.

Many may say it a risky deal, but without making errors an entrepreneur will never know what his customers want to read, and how the same information will benefit them.

At the end, you should ask the readers to give their feedback and enquire whether the article was useful to them or not. Such things are important in the world of digital marketing and content writing. 

Offering highly informative content could enhance the traffic in no time.

According to Robbie Richards, a well-known content marketer, he presented a report on how he grew his blog site (relating to content marketing) to 272% in a single month.

Just imagine, how beneficial a brand will be if it also gets that much traffic every month.

Engaging with customers and prospective clients on social media has a big impact on the overall lead generation capacity of the firm. The social media team of any brand should be hyperactive in this regard and must listen to what customers want to say and initiate a proper dialogue with them wherever he sensed an opportunity to do so.

According to 2017 statistics, at present more than 1870-million active members are live on social media. The figure is expected to reach further soon.

Meanwhile, creating a good profile on social media with many followers is definitely an apt opportunity for a firm. It creates a credible image of the firm worldwide, and many new social networking sites’ followers will try to follow such profiles as well.

According to PwC statistics, total revenue from e-book sales and publication is likely to cross $8.7-billion mark by the next year. Apart from the creative essence of the e-book, such books are also important for the purpose of content marketing and promoting one’s brand too.

All contents and e-books should be enlightening in nature. They must address the concern of the readers and leads while informing them with the necessary knowledge and things pertaining to the domain of the brand.

For example; a software brand should always try to disseminate the latest trends in software operation in the brand’s contents and eBooks as and whenever possible.

Another beautiful way of content marketing while leaving a deep impact in the minds of the potential leads is by arranging a seminar or webinar. In the corresponding day, some press releases about the event will do the needful, and many new clients would love to engage with the brand.

Every presentation clearly indicating the line of the business with flagship products and services should be presented on slide share and must be published publically. It will help the world audience to about your brand and its necessary products or services.

A slide share presentation should be simple and written in the lucid language while capable of removing any doubt from the minds of customers or potential leads. Once published online, a brand can then use the links on its website or even on social media too.

Answering customers’ questions and doubts is a good way to promote one’s brand while staying in touch with the customers. While helping a customer clear his doubts, an entrepreneur or the brand’s social media team, whoever handles the brand promotion task unknowingly turning an inquisitive customer to a brand’s client? Prompt reply acts as a faster mode of mouth publicity. One satisfied customer is likely to bring in many new customers in no time.

In the context of digital marketing, content is the king. According to a survey by Kapost, the content marketing experts witnessed around 7.8 times more traffic to their website than the others.

So, definitely, good content and digital marketing are closely related to each and in fact, one completes the other. Without compelling contents, digital marketing is vague and baseless.

These days, customers are also attracted to studying case studies.

Case Study acts as an eye-opener to them revealing several important aspects of the brands that they are about to use in their daily life or for business purposes.

Many firms don’t consider the importance of a case study, but whosoever assimilates positive case studies with the content marketing the result is hugely beneficial in favor of that firm. Latter enjoys wider success and witnesses a steep rise in company’s goodwill and credibility too.

As per the IBM Digital Experience Survey, 56% of the marketers believe that personalized contents greatly help in fetching positive reviews of the brand and making it a global entity with a passage of time.

Definitely, the time has come for the content marketing to take the center stage and brands should never refrain from opting for digital marketing if it really wishes to get many potential and qualified leads in a short span of time.

I get it.

You signed to be a medical practitioner and not a blogger. But a blogger and you have one thing in common: You all need audience.

You all need a crowd that will embrace your work and reward you with loyalty. That means a blog or a site is not a project that you do to pass by or, do if for the sake.

If you're running a healthcare blog, readers can easily notice if you care for them or, you're just interested in making money. Blogs in healthcare market that have become big know how to care for their audience.

A blog can be great for your medical practice. Not only can it bring new patients, it can also help you cultivate personal relationship with them. But how do your create blog post that will appeal to patients?

In other words, how can you make your writing shining in the healthcare market?

How do you make the audience believe in you?

All of those questions means the same thing. It what every healthcare market blog struggle with outside.

There's is a solution.

Readers are savvy. They can tell if you care about them or not. How do they know that. If your blog is all about you and what you do, chances are most readers will ignore.

Readers are likely to resonate with your healthcare blog if you write with empathy. Empathy not sympathy will win your reader's heart.

Writing with empathy is easier said than done. Actually, it won't surprise you to find that most people don't know what empathy or sympathy mean. They like to confuse the two.

Take a minute and watch the Brene' Bruno video, it strikes out a big difference between empathy and sympathy. Maybe you wondering, what are the benefit of writing with empathy:

• Your communication with your readers comes out as authentic, heartfelt without sounding sugary-sweet.
• You don't force your way writing to the reader.​​​​
• You come up as a genuine person and appealing to them.
• Your conversation sounds intimate and not a lecture.
• Your audience begins to resonate with you.

If you've checked the video above, you'll notice that empathy is embracing them even if you have no solution to their problems. Sympathy is more like holding them on your arm's length. How do you write with empathy?

Takeaway: To win your readers, you must share the emotional connection. That deep feelings they have. If you want to write with empathy, mirror their feelings to them. Always agree with, never preach and lecture on what they should do. We are humans beings at the end of the day, all we want is person who we can have intimate conversion or emotional connection.

To write a post that patient resonate with, you have to know what is hot in the healthcare market. It is excellent to know what is popular in health niche for a few reasons:

• You'll know your patient's desires and frustrations
• Influencers in the health niche are likely to send you traffic
• Your post helps you understand your patients better.

Yes, you know who your audience are. They are patients who come to your clinic everyday, asking for treatments. But, do you have an idea of what they want?

It is easier to assume that they want treatment or cure for the ailments. That is not what they want. To find out what your patients need, study their psychographic traits. If you been blogging for a long time, you know that audiences have certain common traits like fears, desires, goals and frustrations.

That is what makes what keeps them awake in the wee hours of the night:

• They have a goal of living long.
• They have fear that their health conditions may get out of hand.
• They are frustrated with their past health experiences.

How do you know your audience greatest desires or health goals? It is simple. Do the following exercises.

I want to (action) and (action) so I can (achieve results) and (action results).

Take an example from the weight loss category:

I want to lose weight and be fit so that I can fit in my wedding dress
I want to lean and strong so that I can live longer and healthy

If you do this exercise right, readers will feel the connections and empathy that you have for them. You can create 10 or 20 more sentences to have a clear Idea of what they want.

You now realized the benefit of empathizing with your patients. It is the only of creating a connection and cultivate intimate conversation.

If you have done that right and did the above exercises, creating a prize-winning title will be an easier things for one reason.

Now, you know exactly what keeps your audience night. You know their frustrations, fears, desires and goals. Each headline that you create for them, has to mirror frustrations, fears, desires and goals that they have. Here are the steps that you can take to create an irresistible title for your audience:

Have seen my title above, I did want to write something vague like: How to create the perfect blog post in the healthcare market. It sounds generic.

To get your attention, I translated the obsession you have to measurable results.

The results is getting "New Patients", which got your attention. Knowing what keeps you patients at night is huge.

It's still not enough. You have to measure those obsessions they have. In other words, you have to look at your patient in the eye and tell them that they have achieved.

To create an irresistible title, you have to measure results. Here is a simple exercise on how you do just that:

If you still don't know know the outcome or how to measure results. Go to Amazon, then look at your books in the healthcare market.

You may need to read reviews to find out what customers are sayings. Lookout for the words and phrases that come up often.

You can also look at the comments of the most popular blogs in the healthcare market. What are people talking about.

Forums are also a great way of finding out what is topics are trending and the problems people are having.

If you found the results, then you can create a prize-winning article for your audience.

It is true that 80% of online searches will look at the headline before deciding to read your article right.

And 50% of them will look at your introduction to see if you have something new before deciding to read your entire content.

What does this mean for an average healthcare bloggers? Your blog post must score on both the headline and the introduction. 

It doesn't make any sense to create a wonderful headline, only to lose half of the readers in your introduction because you sound boring.

To create a hypnotic introduction that amazes patients, you must have empathy. In other words, you need empathetic opening.

Take an example from the weight loss niche, how can you create a headline that "wow" your patients? Here are questions that I would ask myself:

• What is going on in my reader's mind? (Hint: write everything down)
• What past experiences does he has? Or what have they tried in the past and fail( writing everything down)
• How do they know if they have achieved their results?(writing everything down)

Rule of Thumbs: Try to focus on past experience and history patients have on that subject

Here is an example on how I will structure the introductions based on the answers that I have.

I hope this article gave you an in-depth clue.

Universally, the last couple of years have seen the birth of the growing number of E-commerce portals like Amazon, Ebay , etc .

These new-age businesses founded by young technology entrepreneurs have ventured into almost every domain and category of products and services possible, i.e., travel booking, digital wallets, appointment scheduling, grocery, electronics, and so much more.

At the moment, almost every single need of an individual customer is getting serviced online by numerous e-commerce companies.

Regardless of the fact that a number of these new-age enterprises have achieved “cult status” with multiple billion dollar variations in their nations of origin, there have been more than a few who have collapsed alongside the way.

Newspaper reports and studies affirm that failures are pretty much higher in this extremely competitive industry compared to successes.

At the basic level, the business model of most e-commerce firms is identical. They either operate on an open market model or execute their own inventory-based model.

So, in spite of having a more or less identical business model, what is it that differentiates successful e-commerce ventures from unsuccessful ones?

While technology is a non-negotiable determinant, experts quote after customer service and sales support to be some of the most substantial factors that determine the success of e-commerce businesses.

Even more, prompt and effective customer care support is vital for the success of every e-commerce business.

In the present age of heightened customer activism, an individual discontented client can immensely dent a corporation’s reputation with a single update on the widely embraced social media platforms.

Adopting the best practices of client relations management is therefore essential for businesses wanting to attain a competitive edge in this extremely competitive industry.

That said,

Opting to outsource this service is a tactical decision and one that deserves careful consideration. ON this section of the post, we have highlighted on the 5 situations where outsourcing E-commerce customer service makes perfect sense.

Let us say you are a running startup. You are operating with a small team, and you desire to focus on the core business functions for the time being.

It is possible that your client base is still somewhat small and your company can handle every customer service inquiries coming your businesses way. But as the number of clients increases, you’ll need more and ampler time to devote to your clients.

According to published research, 45% of Business to Consumer (B2C) clients make more buys after an impressive customer experience. For Business to Business clients, this percentage rate is a shouting 62%.

The quality of customer care service can significantly impact the successes of your startup venture in its early stages. Your customer care service complexity is also dependent upon which channels you utilize and which languages your clients speak.

In case your clients are from varying nations, or you are using numerous channels, you might want to consider outsourcing.

For every starting business, receiving a good client feedback is crucial to improving products and services, so once you do outsource, ensure you operate with a partner who passes this feedback onto you, so you are always kept in the loop.

Your client base might be spread out worldwide. For an amazing client experience you will need customer service agents that can speak your customer’s language.

In case you have queries coming in different languages with a comparatively low-volume of each, it makes total sense to partner with an outsourcing company that can provide shared representatives.

These shared agents work on various projects at the same time implying lower costs per every project that is passed on to you as a customer.

Even more, partnering with shared agents permits you to cover a wide assortment of languages at the same budget as employing one agent in-house.

Once it comes to customer care, every utilized channel is treated as its own discipline. Social media channels differ significantly from phone and e-mails are very different from chats.

Every channel needs its own set of skills and infrastructure. In case you desire to include a new channel to your company’s customer care service offering, it makes sense to employ an outsourcing party well experienced in offering support on this new channel.

This saves you since you won’t have to invest in new infrastructure or coach new representatives for that specific channel.

In case you anticipate significant fluctuations in customer service volumes, it may be the best idea to consider partnering with an outsourcing company.

It makes little sense to devote internal resources on coaching and assisting representatives for short periods of time.

Since various outsourcing partners already work with pools of shared agents, most of these agents can be re-coached to work on other projects in the event that your projects incoming volume starts to drop.

Once the volume picks up again, the amount of agents can easily get scaled up so as to ensure no calls go unanswered.

Working as a customer care service representative needs a specific set of skill. You will need to ensure that the individuals directly relating to your clients are amazing at everything they do and can be relied on to represent your firm.

When you employ an outsourcing partner well experienced in employing customer service agents you can rest assured that they have an idea of what to look for in every new hire.

In all fairness, it is possible for e-commerce companies to create their in-house customer support functions, but most companies desire to outsource them to experienced outsourcing partners. This simple arrangement brings about multiple benefits to an e-commerce company.

Well, perhaps you already understand that by engaging third-party customer care support service providers, e-commerce firms get to free up their internal resources so they can focus on core business functions such as analytics, data mining, marketing and sales, accounting, engineering, and so much more.

Customer care support for e-commerce firms involves adopting of the new age technology equipment and specialized set of skills.

Even more, e-commerce portals need a multi-channel customer care support contact center that includes SMS, e-mail support, live chat, and voice calls so as to offer a smooth experience to its clients.

An industry focused on providing call center services will possess the necessary tools and resources to provide such services flawlessly to its customers thus improving general client satisfaction scores.

Customer service is a dedicated function and needs experienced experts to manage it effectively.

Outsourcing this function helps e-commerce firms to gain access to well-experienced customer care service professionals without the need to employ and coach them internally.

24*7 customer support assists in bringing about a quick response to client’s questions and complaints thus improving brand perception and increased business.

Besides these services, a number of the customer care service providers also ensure that they manage feedbacks and customer reviews across all social media platforms and customer networks.

These service providers coach their staffs to track client feedbacks, respond to their questions, and make them feel valued across every social networking platform.

In this new era of social networking; where a single tweet or status update can result in substantial damage to the revenue generation abilities of business companies, it’s extremely imperative for all e-commerce firms to maintain healthy reputations.

India happens to be one of the leading destinations for outsourcing customer care services. Customer care call centers in India possess a pool of competent workers who can promise enriching conversations to the clients, which would eventually assist business organizations in retaining their already existing clients as well as garnering some new clients.

They are well trained to offer the best experience to clients by combining empathy and understanding on the issues that a client might be facing after buying a specific product or availing a certain service.

The workers of every customer support service providers are comprehensively and regularly trained on all products and services a firm is willing to serve its clients with.

Furthermore, these customer support service providers possess official recognition policies for their workers regarding order processing, request registering, complaint handling, and/or troubleshooting.

Employing these services from certified and trained experts assists e-commerce businesses to deliver incomparable service experience in a professional and timely manner.

You ought to note that along with account receivables, there are numerous other imperative procedures such as payment posting, verification, and charge entry that need to get completed first.

Amidst these processes, a medical billing professional determines the exact diagnosis code and procedure code based on the treatment plan.

There are likelihoods that the insurance company might deny claims in case they do not abide by the rules, and for that reason, it is vital that you have a devoted A/R staff that can follow up with the insurance company and resolve all your denied claims.

Lots of medical billing experts execute their A/R follow up in an extremely systematic manner; which is typically conducted in 3 phases:

Phase no 1: Initial evaluation of medical A/R follow up.

This phase is all about identification and evaluation of all claims listed on the aging report. The team reviews the provider’s adjustment course of action from which they’ll identify which claims need to get adjusted off.

Extra claims might be identified as soon as the evaluation of “timely filling limits” is conducted.

Phase no 2: Analysis’ and prioritizing medical A/R follow up.

Proficient analysts initiate this second phase by identifying the numerous issues of claims that are marked as uncollectible or for claims where the insurance carrier is yet to pay according to its contracted rate with providers.

The appeal/filling limits of the key carriers will be checked and, even more, the “claims submission address” will be reviewed for the claims’ so as to reach the ideal processing unit.

The team also affirms that “clean claims” get reimbursed in accordance with the contracted fee schedule.

Phase no 3: Collecting the maximum of medical A/R follow up.

Based on the team’s findings and analysis, claims identified to be within the appealing/filling limit of the insurance carrier get refiled, validating that all the needed billing information (such as claims processing addresses and other medical billing rules) are accurate.

Any claims that have surpassed the filing limit of the insurance carrier, as well as the claims that seem to be underpaid by the insurance carrier, are appealed with the essential supporting documents.

Appeal processes vary widely depended on the plan, state, and insurance carrier. The processes are applied and collected on claims that are being appealed.

Claims are then electronically transmitted directly to the insurance carriers whenever possible, and for the other carriers, claims are forwarded via clearing houses and aggressively followed with the insurance carrier for confirmation.

After implementing all the above and posting payment details to the outstanding claims, patient bills are then generated according to the client guidelines and then followed up with the patients for payments.

There is an immense amount of work to get done before the doctor can demand an amount from the insurance company. Idyllically, an Account receivable team comprises of two departments;

They are responsible for studying and analyzing denied claims as well as unfinished payments. Even more, in case any claim is found to bear any coding error. The team corrects this particular error and then resubmits the claim.

The team on the other hand constantly communicates with the patients, insurance firms, and healthcare service providers and take necessary actions based-on their responses or feedback.

The skills and quality of services rendered by the team eventually assist in determining the overall financial health of the healthcare practice.

The prime challenge most firms face in the medical billing procedure is A/R follow up management.

So, why is it essential?

Below are numerous reasons' to enlighten you on some of the well-known reasons.

1. In case the claim was never received.

One of the biggest delays in payment is resulted by the claim not getting filed. In simpler words, the claim wasn’t received by the insurance firm. This normally happens after paper claims get lost or misplaced somewhere along the way before they are delivered.

To avoid such blunders, it’s wise to send claims electronically if you can. In case the claim has not been followed up on quickly, it could be weeks or longer before your firm realizes that the insurance firm never received your claim.

For paper claims, let 10 business days pass prior to calling the insurance firm to confirm whether the claim was received.

2. Helps the organizations in recovering overdue payments.

A/R follow ups assist all nursing homes, physicians, hospitals, etc. in recovering the late payments without a hassle.

When the healthcare provider has a team that can constantly involve itself in the claims follow up procedures, it becomes stress-free for the health care provider to receive payments in a timely manner.

3. Ensures financial stability of the healthcare provider.

The financial stability of every healthcare provider highly depends on maintaining a healthy cash flow. The hospitals and physicians need to maintain a secure flow of revenue to cover expenses and provide the needed patient care services effectively; the A/R department makes sure that all this is taken care of.

4. Reduces time for outstanding accounts.

The main objective of every A/R department is to reduce the amount of time that accounts are permitted to stay outstanding. The team tracks accounts that haven’t been paid yet, evaluates an appropriate action required to secure payment, and then goes ahead to implement necessary procedures for secure payment.

5. Denied claims can be followed up.

Dependent on the denial reason, you can actually send out a new claim request with all required corrections before you even receive the paper denial via mail.

By contacting the insurance firm and enquiring why they denied your claim rather than waiting for your paper denial explaining the reason through the mail, the A/R team can make sure that all claims get corrected as fast as possible.

Resubmitting the claims up to 7 days earlier instead of waiting for the mail will undoubtedly reduce the turnaround time for your payments.

The bottom line here is, granting yourself a head start on your denied insurance claims so as to get all claim processes moving again.

6. Recover Claims that are kept pending for information.

At times, claims will be kept pending for a certain duration of time as a result of additional information needed for the respective member.

By executing a proper follow up, the A/R team can notify the member regarding the situation so an appropriate action can be taken and the entire process is sped up again.

Outsourcing refers to the technique in which businesses entrust the processes of their company functions to external vendors’. Every company process that can be performed from an off-the-shore location can be outsourced.

This includes functions such as payroll, transaction processing, transcription services, call center services, image manipulation services, order and inventory management, just to name a few.

One of the leading misconceptions when it comes to working with virtual staff is assuming that a single employee can handle every single thing for you. This is nothing but a “super VA myth,” and you ought to know that it is not possible (not in the virtual world, and not even in the real world).

So as to efficiently utilize virtual assistants as you grow your firm, you are required to hire people for the roles, and not the tasks. This implies that you need to build up a team.

This team will work collectively to achieve everything you are aiming for as an entrepreneur or business director. It’s with this concept in mind that I decided to compile this list of tasks you could outsource to virtual staff and grow your business more efficiently.

It is essential to appreciate and acknowledge that no single individual can handle all these different tasks.

So, let's start by taking a look at some of the valid and compelling advantages businesses experience from outsourcing their tasks.

For lots of businesses, the prime reason they outsource is so that its employees, managers, and free owners can focus their attention on more income generating activities.

Every day-opportunities for business growth and a desire to develop your company’s operations exist, but resources to make all these happen are lacking. Outsourcing will create some free time for numerous employees, and this could be everything you need to take full advantage of the daily opportunities.

In most cases, outsourcing permits access to skilled talent. Even more, outsource businesses can offer, latest technology, innovative approaches, and creative, cutting-edge solutions that otherwise are not available.

A skilled firm or contractor can generally execute tasks more cheaply compared to hiring a full-time employee. This implies that the costs of employing, coaching, and maintaining workers are eliminated and so are benefits and tasks.

One of the most critical factors determining the outcome of your campaign is risk analysis. Outsourcing various components of your business’s processes will assist the company by shifting various responsibilities to the outsourced vendors.

Since these outsourced vendors are specialists in what they do, they’ll plan all your risk-reducing factors much better.

Regardless of these pros of outsourcing that you should consider before approaching an outsourcing vendor, it’s always wise to accurately define the importance of the tasks you are looking to outsource.

The main factors that have led to the growth of this trending tendency of outsourcing include;

• The Likelihood and ability to concentrate on other essential business processes.
• Lack of skilled labor in specific areas of the business processes.
• Availability of discounted labor, all while not compromising the quality of output.

All these factors have specifically resulted in most outsourced partners across the world today.

That being said, below are numerous tasks you should aim to outsource as you grow your business;

Sales calls are normally a matter of number, meaning that more calls equal to more leads and sales. The moment the first outreach has been performed, closing the sales can be controlled by the internal sales force.

A brilliant salesperson’s skills and expertise can be efficiently utilized to handle clients and close sales, rather than just make cold calls. It might also be more effective to outsource customer support compared to maintaining a qualified support staff to handle these tasks. This is especially true for product based companies.

Let’s start by understanding what bookkeeping is. Bookkeeping can be regarded to as the act of keeping records of all financial transactions in an organized manner.

Furthermore, Bookkeeping and Accounting are just like your morning jog; no one really wants to take his/her time out to do it but disregarding it may result in serious complication after a specified period of time.

You always have an option to employ a dedicated individual to take care of your day to day bookkeeping and accounting activities though nowadays it’s become practical for companies to outsource all their bookkeeping activities.

There are lots of benefits brought about by outsourcing your bookkeeping activities. You can save your employees more time so they can focus more on your business. You’ll also save some cash since account outsourcing is cheaper compared to employing a full-time accountant and you’ll have access to experts, who will ensure accuracy and so much more.

Social media platforms are no longer restricted to personal communication. Nowadays, lots of companies are using social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Even Snapchat for lead generation.

As a matter of fact, the famous messaging app, WhatsApp, is also getting used by companies extensively. Advertising on these social media platforms is not an easy task, and this activity will need a considerable amount of time.

For instance, the company’s job does not end with posting on the platform. The company has to engage in the conversations and reply to all its users.

As an entrepreneur, you can easily outsource this task to one of the social media marketing agencies. They’ll have a team of well-skilled professionals set aside, and their work is to grow and monitor your followers.

You can utilize tools such as Hootsuite as they permit you to add new team members and approve everything they post on your business’s social media profiles.

Most companies think that social media marketing campaigns can be managed by setting aside just 30 to 40 minutes every single day or occasionally to reply to some messages.

That’s a wrong insight, and in case you really desire to reap benefits from your social media marketing campaigns, you must invest enough time to grow your followers’, so outsourcing the activity to experts will give decent returns.

Tax returns preparations are pretty time consuming and needs a specific set of skills. You can easily find tax consultants who can lift this tax filing burden for you.

In case you are making use of any reliable online accounting software, you can simply grant them temporary access, and they’ll be able to generate the return.

Tax filing and preparation services costs are pretty much standardized nowadays so you could easily outsource Service Tax, Value Added Tax, and TDS return preparation.

In case you own a small team, you won’t experience any difficulties managing payroll in-house. But then again, once your company starts growing past 15 employees, handling monthly payrolls can eat up lots of your time, meaning that keeping track of worker’s applicable tax returns, bonuses advances, loan advances, joining and exit formalities, and employee leaves may soon turn and become a nightmare for you.

In case chosen appropriately, Payroll outsourcing will be less costly, and a more straightforward mean of filing your taxes on time and paying your employees.

Most entrepreneurs think that they can perform their own design tasks. Well, it’s true they can, but very few of them can do it well, and that’s why you are advised to leave this to the experts.

You can achieve more quality results if you opt to outsource your artwork creations. This includes designing of advertising banners, letterhead, business cards, logos, website image, and so much more.

Websites such as Upwork connect business owners with some of the best designers around the globe. It’s pretty affordable, and you’ll get a huge number of freelancers to choose from. In case you’re on a tight budget, sites such as Fiverr can help you out.

Are you preparing to accommodate a workshop of workers? Or a team day out? Or perhaps a get-together festivity for vendors? It’s better if you outsource the entire event organization activity to an even organizing agency.

Right from preparations to the execution, event management can consume a lot of time. If not outsourced, you’ll be forced to include your workers, and this might negatively impact your firm’s productivity.

A trustworthy event management firm can take away this whole burden as they have a good connection with food caterers, sound providers, technicians, and other vendors.

So the next time you’ll be thinking of hosting an event, you are advised to outsource it and save yourself some valuable time.

There are various tasks that you’ll simply hate doing, maybe it’s preparing your monthly MIS, or perhaps it’s writing blogs and articles. I am also confident that you enjoy performing specific activities, and that’s what you should focus on.

Doing activities, we do not enjoy can drain us and unpleasantly affect our productivity altogether. Even more, we have a tendency of postponing activates we do not love, and this won’t be good to for your business either.

It’s better if you just outsource such tasks to experts who are good at it.

One of the routinely outsourced company tasks is customer or client support; especially phone support. The cost of hiring, providing enough office space, coaching, and paying taxes can be quite high, but an outsourced call center in a nation such as India can continually carry out the task at a very affordable cost.

Obviously, the choice to outsource customer phone support is a trade off. Internet blogs and forums are packed with foreign phone support terrifying stories about reps who cannot speak fluent English, fail to understand problems and make the whole support experience an exhausting ordeal.

Despite the fact that web design is a more imaginative task compared to accounting, it is a regularly outsourced task nonetheless. Foreign teams usually are quite well skillful in web design, and most providers will even offer companies their choices of ready-made website templates that IT team can modify to their liking.

Nonetheless, not all web design tasks are suitable for outsourcing. Generally, outsourcing is recommended for standard company web design tasks for which time is of the essence.

In case your web design task needs significant innovation or creativity, it is perhaps better handled by an in-house web designer who can monitor all through the project’s development.

Despite the fact that no one expects an outsourced legal squad to protect their company in the court of law, other sorts of legal complications are sufficiently handled by overseas firms.

Litigation support, document review, analysis/drafting, and legal documentation are all samples of legal tasks that businesses profitably and confidently entrust to well experienced outsourced teams every single day.

The capability to outsource all legal services is particularly advantageous to smaller industries, which can rarely afford to employ the expert legal professionals’’ at the market rates.
Large companies also normally find it more effective to utilize outsourced teams for tedious legal tasks.

All sorts of managerial healthcare services​ are also profitably outsourced by most companies around the world. These healthcare services include teleradiology, healthcare software, medical transcription, coding, and medical billing.

As demand for sophisticated diagnostics and scanning rise, it becomes more rewarding to hand over such tasks to medical professionals with the ability to command on the open market.
A potential setback here (just as in tax preparations and accounting) is the fact that medical information is habitually sensitive by definition.

This recommends that an extremely high emphasis ought to be placed so as to ensure that you only use outsourced teams with a proven, trustworthy, and reliable track record.

Human resources and employee acquisition functions can all get easily administrated by an external agency. Some external firms are more experienced at checking references, screening for suitable applicants, and advertising.

Using a Human Resource or employment service to manage your employee benefits is a nice move, since they have to stay up to date on the newest employment standards and governing laws.

Virtually any type of engineering task (May it be architectural, structural, electrical, or mechanical) can efficiently and effectively be outsourced.

This includes (but isn’t limited to) consulting, modeling, AutoCAD designs, and Sketches. Remember, nonetheless, the criteria needed for wisely outsourcing computer programming and web design tasks, since they equally apply to engineering.

In case you are in doubt, it’s best that you only outsource standardized and paint by numbers projects that depend more on common and well-known methods, rather than unique missions that only you or your fellow executives exclusively possess.

Today's businesses outsource all sorts of research and development tasks. Every single thing from pharmaceutical research, financial research, customer demographics, and even market research is handled by overseas teams coached in the numerous methodologies of every field.

The most essential task from the firm’s standpoint is finding an outsourcing firm specializing in the unique sort of research needed for the task in question.

Just like every other field, distinct firms will specialize in distinct things. You should be skeptical when it comes to hiring “a single size fits all” type of firm. These firms normally claim that they are capable of doing all sort of research you might possibly need.

Routine data entry tasks (such as order processing, cataloging, scanning, and indexing) are perfectly well-suited for outsourcing. A cost-conscious company will easily hire an outsourced team to execute just about every data entry task conceivable and also get the job well done with adequate accuracy.

The only time a firm ought to hesitate a bit when it comes to outsourcing their data entry projects is when the information involved is somewhat sensitive.

Firms are reasonably weary passing off client data such as social security numbers and credit cards to outsourced teams. Regardless of Such projects, data entry is an ideal task to outsource.

Computer programming is typically outsourced for similar reasons as web design. A comparatively standard programming project (such as database, calculator, or message board) can be easily and quickly completed by outsourcing teams for a couple of dollars.

These days a decently optimized website is the basic cost of online admission.

In Case you have accepted this concept then it’s time that you make a decision. Will you run to your in-house IT “experts” or will you hire a professional, i.e., an outsourcing team?

Obviously, there are numerous advantages of keeping such a project in-house but you also ought to consider the advantages​ of hiring a professional to help you out.

How can you hire new individuals in your organization? Lots of us post a vacancy on our websites or inform our buddies and existing employees regarding the vacant positions.

In case you have a good network, you will slowly start receiving resumes. Subsequently, you’ll start interviewing these potential candidates over the weekends.

What comes after that is pick-outs, background confirmations, salary negotiations and more interview rounds.

You can imagine the amount of time hiring employees can consume in case it’s not done right. You can easily save yourself some valuable time by simply outsourcing the whole hiring procedure.

These hiring agencies​ will have a database and they can speedily arrange the best candidates with the desired skills’. Some of them will even offer free replacements in case a new employee resigns or leaves within 4 months.

Most entrepreneurs start their companies based on the primary skills they possess. Bill Gates started Microsoft because he had a passion for IT.

In the same way, you’ll most likely work or start an industry you feel comfortable with or have some substantial knowledge about. Nonetheless, in the long run, you will learn that an entrepreneur has no choice but to wear many hats.

He has to dive into sales, marketing, and nearly every other department of the business. You might not be good at sales and marketing as you start your company since you never went to a formal sales and marketing lecture.

Most entrepreneurs face such issues but the only problem is, some of them might force themselves into trying out things they do not have an idea about. In such circumstances, it’s intelligent to outsource projects in need of skills you do not have.

For instance, in case you do not know how a website is designed, do not waste your precious time trying to learn it. Even better, find some professionals and get this done quick.

Every person is talking about applications these days and thus, building your business app sounds like a pretty good idea.

Lucky for you, there are Do It Yourself (DIY) app development tools’ available for you to utilize and create your own applications.

Nonetheless, unless your primary competency is App development, you might end up creating something which does not grant you as much traction as you might have desired.

The thing is that clients’ have become quickly accustomed to quick and slick interfaces with high-quality graphics.

In case your application has some whiff of a Do It Yourself approach, it might end up doing your corporation more harm than good.

The best way to address such an issue is to build the application yourself with the intent of using it as a functioning prototype your clients can use to perform their initial tastings.

This sort of testing and the kind of feedback you receive allows you to come up with some reasonable judgments regarding whether outsourcing the project is a good idea.

Once you have attained the results and you have taken your firm’s decision a step further, you can now hand over the entire project to an expert App developer.

Content writing is the core of all online marketing strategies. Native advertising content, social media content, blog content, and so much more, are all essential components of online marketing.

Without written contents, gaining prominence on social media networks and search engines will be difficult, and we all know these are essential sources of referrals for any company.

I have come across lots of business owners investing huge amounts time into coming up with authentic content. You ought to understand that content writing doesn’t always come naturally; it takes efforts and practice.

These business owners spent lots of hours coming up with topics, doing research, writing, editing, and proofreading, while all these are hours they could spend growing their company in other ways’.

In case that’s your situation, consider outsourcing your company’s writing workload to an expert content writer.

Like stated before, when you are running your firm, time is of the essence and marketing or promoting your brand might take up plenty of that time.

Outsourcing your digital marketing campaigns to a digital marketing agency can bring about immense benefits to your business.

To begin with, your marketing campaign will not suffer due to staff complications or annual leaves. You perhaps already understand that the key to a successful marketing campaign is consistency.

Choosing to partner up with a digital marketing agency implies that you don’t have to worry about gaps in delivery or staff leaves. To place it as it is, that’s the agency’s problem.

Secondly, you receive your services from a team of professionals at this particular area. Your workers receive salaries, and so instead of creating payrolls for every single person, you’ll be paying a team of experts’ in digital marketing campaigns who’ll create, research, and implement marketing strategies that work.

Essentially, you’re paying for better results at a way more affordable budget compared to hiring employees.

We are now in an age where every person has a smartphone, and this implies that they have the power to make videos and post them on the internet.

Despite the fact that that’s ok as long as you are filming silly dog videos’ and publishing them on YouTube channels, it is perhaps not a good idea when it comes to your business.

I agree that it's obviously going to be way inexpensive compared to hiring a well-known video production firm.

What you should understand is that in-house videos might not display your businesses in the best light. This is because your clients are going to evaluate your service’s/product’s quality based on the quality of your videos.

Every single video you post for your clients to view needs to look tip-top. Save yourself the hassle and time because you are better off leaving this task in the hands of the experts.

There are two prime reasons as to why you should consider outsourcing email management.

• Email missions are critical.

Every person understands the value, reach, and power of emails today. Nonetheless, this day, lots of businesses find themselves with email services that are increasingly unproductive, and inherently inefficient.

• Email has changed.

The second reason is emails have changed. In the last couple of years, it was always considered to be a regular exercise for most companies to manage their own Email servers.

However, this is no longer the case. Handling an in-house Email server consumes a significant amount of Network Administrator time and lots of precious bandwidth.

Even more serious, once a Business’s Email service is disturbed, the risk of losing access to these mission-critical business resources are massive.

As a matter of fact, lots of administrators are having a hard time keeping up with the ever-changing Email warfare of technology getting waged to fend-off spammers.

In case Email management is not your prime business focus, probably outsourcing it to a firm specializing in Email management is the best idea.

One of the best and luxurious things in running your own company seems to be having an individual who manages your calendar, acting as a gatekeeper.

Outsourcing your calendar management tasks and scheduling tasks to a virtual assistant is of value both in terms of saving you more time and bringing extra value to your company.

Let’s take a look at how outsourcing calendar management can save you time.

In case, you have ever tried to plan a meeting with a busy colleague, client, or lead then you understand how back and forth all this can be.

Instead of spending your valuable time every week setting up appointments or pursuing those who are not interested in speaking with you, all this time can be efficiently spent on other crucial sectors of the business.

Next, let’s see how outsourcing calendar management can help you maintain your focus.

Imagine you are in the middle of a customer call, all things are going great, you are loving the conversation’s flow, and then all of a sudden, in your eye’s corner, you spot an email canceling your meeting with a lead.

Unexpectedly, you are destructed, questioning what took place? And whether everything is okay. (And don’t you forget you’re on the phone with a client)
To save yourself from all this stress, hire a virtual assistant so they can field all these Emails and changes.

Booking appointments happen to be among the tasks normally outsourced by lots of companies’. Hiring someone else to do this will save the entrepreneur a big slice of time they can spend running their ventures.

When done effectively and appropriately by a virtual assistant, this practice will improve your relationship with clients.

Appointments bookings ought to be efficiently done since an appointment-packed schedule may run mayhem on the day-to-day workday schedule.

It needs to be efficiently managed, so it doesn’t eat up and waste all your day’s work.

Besides being a matter of convenience for both small and big sized companies, outsourcing manufacturing and production processes is a pre-requisite for survival.

Without the capability to outsource their production functions to contract manufacturers (CMs), most businesses will basically lack the economies of scale that permit them to compete with their larger competitors efficiently’.

Only a small number of corporations around the world have the ability to capitalize in, and regularly upgrade, the billions of dollars in personnel, equipment, and procedure technology needed to compete in a market of fading margins and shrinking product lifecycles.

For most companies nowadays, the trend of outsourcing manufacturing functions to companies in nations such as Chia makes significant sense.

These contract manufacturers will ensure that your business’s products are up and running in a short period of time because of the extensive facilities and expertise at their disposal.

Storage Service Providers (SSP) could be the solution to all your data management prayers.

The innovation of the internet has continuously increased the requirements for both online and offline data storage. I think the moment has come for all companies to consider outsourcing their storage provisions and management to the new kind of online service providers, The storage service providers (SSP).

A storage service provider is a firm aimed at providing computer storing space and management. Besides the storage itself, storage service providers typically provide archiving and backup, remotely managed storage, and some will also offer to consolidate data from numerous locations so as to enable efficient data sharing.

Clients are typically billed at a once-a-month rate and for every managed terabyte of storage.

One thing when it comes to being a marketing expert is every single person thinks they can also perform your tasks. On the exterior, marketing practices look so easy, though, in various respects, it is.

What’s actually tedious is getting the job done well. In sales and marketing, you’ll easily tell if you are doing the task well or not because the results are always right in front of you for you to see.

You are either generating sufficient clients and leads to keep your business moving forward, or you are doing something that might result in your company’s downfall.

So, in case you are running your own company and you are also in charge of your marketing projects, here is why you ought to outsource inbound marketing.

When running your growing company, you are advised to pay attention to sales and strategies, that’s all. Everything else, from finance to human resource, to marketing, can be handled by the experts.

Inbound marketing happens to be an evolving field, and it's actually less than 10 years old. Nonetheless, you’re needed to stay on top of the changes for your company to be successful.

Let’s take Google Authorship, for instance. Google Authorship was an approach aimed at improving how your blog posts appeared in Google Search results.

Keenly optimizing your blog site for Google Authorship was a must-do a couple of years ago. Then after a short while, Google put on end on the whole program.

Inbound marketers had no choice but to come up with new means that can make content stand-out in the midst of the unlimited amount of content on the web.

Not keeping up with such changes can extremely hurt your entire inbound marketing program. So, In case you’re a business owner, but you are spending significant time on trying to stay up to date with inbound marketing trends, you are perhaps wasting your precious time.

Outsource inbound marketing to the experts and attain the results you desire.

Keeping the office and the entire company clean should be a full-time job. As a matter of fact, with everything invested into keeping the company sanitized (such as buying the required cleaning equipment and hiring designated full time cleaning staff workers) most people could argue that the project of maintaining a company clean is a business itself.

Most companies nowadays are choosing to outsource to cleaning companies in an attempt to diminish the entire hassle of managing in-house sanitation.

Sounds interesting? Well, take a look at the following 5 benefits of outsourcing cleaning tasks to cleaning services and firms.

• Reduces costs.
  As mentioned above, keeping your company hygienically clean is expensive. Lots of cash will be allocated to buying equipment (such as buckets, brooms, mops, cleaners, and so much more) and not to remark on the actual cleaning detergents needed.
• You’ll enjoy a better quality of services.
  Your company’s look in general, particularly regions where customers enter such as waiting lobbies and lavatories, says a lot regarding your brand.
  Make sure that such areas are cleaned to their highest level of sanitation by prominent outsourced cleaning services.
• Improves staff morale.
• You’ll also enjoy reliable cleaning services since you are dealing with experts.

Regardless of whether you’ve podcasted for ages, or you are yet to release your 1st episode, there is an impressive chance that you have considered outsourcing as an alternative at some point.

We have partnered with dozens of companies in producing their shows over the last couple of years, and the range of reasons people are outsourcing are somewhat amazing.

Below are various reasons why you should probably also look into it. Perhaps;

• You possess slight or no experience in producing or mixing audios.
• ​​​​​You know extremely little regarding the publishing and website side of things.
• You would rather spend your precious time working on the things you love, rather than uploading/editing audio files.
• You’ll feel reassured if you have expert support backing you and your show up.
• You understand that professional support and production will accelerate your success.

Regardless of your reasons, there are numerous options available for you should you choose to outsource this heavy lifting.

Prior to outsourcing your Customer Relationship Management (CRM) programs, it is essential that you clearly define the benefits and drawbacks involved.

Once the budget is tight, enterprises usually run to outsourcing services so as to control the costs of Big IT projects. That is also true even for CRM (which happens to be a spending category that most industry observers thought would be relatively safe from harsh budget cuts.)

Nonetheless, according to most accounts, Customer Relationship Management is growing. The CRM software marketplace leader, Siebel Systems, reported that CRM outsourcing is growing by 20% to 23% every year.

Irregardless of this stated growth, the advantages and disadvantages of CM outsourcing are not clearly understood. Outsourcing CRM can take distinct forms.

Enterprises can pay a different firm to host their software (this can be the outsourcing firm’s software or a different vendor’s software.)

Another alternative is they can pay up someone to manage the entire segments of their CRM procedures, for instance, a call center or specific client marketing program.

Entrepreneurs have a tendency of wearing lots of hats, i.e., accountant, customer service representative, Director of Marketing, CEO, Founder, Chairman, President, and so much more.

Once you 1st launch your E-commerce firm, handling every single thing by yourself will seem more reasonable. Nonetheless, it won’t take long before you find yourself consumed and spending lots of time maintaining your company instead of growing it.

Outsourcing is a USD 80 billion business in the United States alone, and that’s for a good reason. Outsourcing will free up your precious time so you can concentrate on how you can propel your company further.

For E-commerce traders, learning how to outsource work and do it altogether will bring about various potential benefits. Some of these benefits include;

• It will help you grow your business because it grants you some free time to concentrate on bigger ideas.
• Outsourcing your E-commerce firm gives you more time to focus on your strengths.
• It’s more affordable compared to hiring a full-time employee.
• You’ll also get to work with more experienced personnel.

Most entrepreneurs are beginning to understand the advantages of using company newsletters so as to bolster their relationships’ with customers and improve sales.

Nonetheless, entrepreneurs with a full understanding of the advantages of company newsletters may still have a hard time coming up with a quality piece each time. Some might even lack resources altogether.

Writing an impressive newsletter (a newsletter containing fascinating, excellent written articles with useful information) is an extremely labor-intensive procedure.

Articles need to be formatted, proofread, edited, and drafted with keen care and attention to detail. Doing this over and over again can turn out to be a time-consuming task for a company whose specialty is not producing content.

Making use of an outsourced firm newsletter permits your company to gradually deliver first-rate content to its customers without all the effort needed to put together an in-house newsletter.

Once you outsource the content task of your company’s newsletter, you’re placing a team of content writing professionals to work on topics that matter to your customers’.

Trained and well adept copywriters and editors understand what sort of writing styles work best for your subject matter and how they can format them to create a long-lasting impression.

Even though this work might be basically irrelevant to what your firm actually does, it’s nonetheless crucial to the formulation of an efficient newsletter.

Outsourcing the editing and writing of your newsletters to a newsletter company allows your firm to provide its customers with a helpful and high-quality newsletter full of insights. All this while letting you concentrate on areas that matter most.

Do you have the qualified personnel and resources to accomplish all your training goals? You might find that after evaluating your firm’s training requirements, you do not possess the best training materials or well-qualified staffs in-house.

There are various reasons as to why you may perhaps choose to bring in outside certified trainers (outsourcing).

These reasons include;

• There are complex regulations you have no choice but to comply with. These regulations include environmental issues or governing safeties.
• You are required to meet certain legal requirements, for instance, those governing discriminations, harassments, and equal opportunities.
• You only own a small staff and do not have enough (or even any) qualified and certified trainers’.
• You have a huge number of workers in need of refresher training.
• You desire to keep workers up to date on whatever’s happening in your industry.

In respect to regulatory obedience, numerous laws and organizations affect your firm. Keeping track of all their requirements might seem overwhelming, but then again there are lots of quality training programs on the marketplace you can utilize to keep your firm in compliance.

1 question most small firms normally struggle with, particularly in the first days’ of their developments is whether they should outsource the various aspects of their internet security or not.

There are lots of instances when outsourcing, network, data, and computer security makes sense. Some of these instances include;

• You cannot find the ideal individual to fill the full-time role.
• Maybe you lack the proper in-house skills and resources.
• You might not be in a position to make a full-time hire due to a tight budget.
• You have better areas to focus on in your firm, so you outsource cyber security to create more time for your employees.

Nonetheless, the blunt truth is that you are not prepared to outsource business cyber security in case one or more of the following points applies to your firm.

• You do not have anyone on board to manage and own outsourced relationships actively.
• You cannot clearly define your goals or problems.
• You do not know where your assets reside and what systems or data you are trying to secure.

Small business owners need to ensure that they don’t give cyber security service providers the impression that they do not understand what they need. The highest probability is cyber security firms will see nothing else other than dollar signs.

Most small business customers would instead walk on burning coals’ than think about bookkeeping, and this means that marketing your accounting firm is a tough call that will frequently fall on deafened ears. Nonetheless, despite the fact that it might not be impressive, it is essential.

The world today is a competitive space, and this implies that publicizing your accounting firm may be the key to staying in business. Also, bear in mind the fact that the client’s decision to choose one firm over the other will always come down to “the price” and nothing else.

The founder of Green Vinn Marketing Mr. Shane Robert Walton states that “Generally speaking, most of your clients are afraid of numbers’. They do not understand what you do, and they have no idea what they ought to look for when choosing an accounting firm.” “As a result, most of these clients will ultimately shop and choose based on the one and only factor they understand; and that is the price.”

The president of Corbett Public Relations adds by saying that, “We do understand that accounting is a competitive field and that lots of accounting firms’ generate business by the use of referrals.”

“Nonetheless, these businesses ought to market and start taking the effort seriously.” With the brand-new tech and the millennial generation closing in, firms and individuals who aren’t prepared to market and stay competitive may suffer.

In case you are a small or solo business, it is likely that you won’t have a marketing squad to help you send your accounting practices out there so you can win business.

But then again, to help you overcome this little problem, we have compiled a list so as to enlighten you on various marketing tips you can use to get your firm noticed.

​In case you are a small or solo business, it is likely that you won’t have a marketing squad to help you send your accounting practices out there so you can win business.

But then again, to help you overcome this little problem, we have compiled a list so as to enlighten you on various marketing tips you can use to get your firm noticed.

Not all prospects’ and clients are created equal. You can perhaps place your existing customers into 3 distinct groups; not so great, average, and great.

Think about all the factors you used to determine what a great customer looks’ like to your company.

Below are numerous tips to help you get started.

There are lots of factors that you ought to consider. The most crucial thing is that you recognize what your best customers look like before you set out to chase after them.

At times, trade offs are involved. It is not always monetary factors that place a prospect on the list. You may be progressing into a brand new area of expertise, or you might be prepared to do business with less profitable customers as you build up your reputation.

On the other hand, in case your accounting firm has its specialty, you might be capable of charging a premium. Searching for brand new customers in the area your firm specializes in could be a profitable and natural direction for you.

I know that this might sound like an obvious point, but if you do not have a solid marketing plan encompassing all your action steps, goals, and rewards, then all your marketing efforts are just likely to be pretty messy.

The marketing plan you come up with should comprise a schedule for all your activities in addition to the budget you can manage to pay for.

Corbet states that “Each individual partner or/and accountant should have their own marketing plan.” “The marketing plan should identify marketing messages, set goals, and identify what online tools or sites will be utilized, such as LinkedIn.

Your customers may choose to use other accounting firms just because of services you do not offer, such as;

Even if these are not your firm’s primary areas of expertise, it is essential that you play a role in assisting them with referrals’ in case you can.

Contemplate on creating or refining the business alliances’ you may have with other trusted professionals’ in your field.

Recruiters, technology consultants, investment advisors, and good lawyers can help you serve your customers’, and you might also receive mutual referrals from them.

Establishing noncompetitive relationships’ with similar firms you trust might also pay out. But first, ensure that you are not in direct competition with them. For instance, a company with strong business tax expertise might offer bilateral referrals’ with a company that has a significant company advisory expertise.

As an alternative, in case you are changing your firm’s primary focus, you are at liberty to partner with less specialized payroll or general bookkeeping practices. They can take on your day to day activities as you focus on higher value services.

An alternative way to showcase your expertise is by creating compelling content. Accounting is one of the most complicated subjects since its where sharing your familiarity in an easy to understand way can make your company stand out.

The director of marketing at Avalara Trustfile (the sales’ tax filing software provider), Mr. Ryan O’Donnell states that “well-crafted content is hard to come by.”

“Invest in content that can help your customers answer any questions they might have and also use it as a way to set a foundation for upcoming conversations. Even go ahead and capture E-mail addresses and start having continuous conversations with your target audience.”

I don’t think you can find a better salesperson, compared to your satisfied client. Your customers do not exist in an exclusive alliance with you. They also interact with other companies of all sizes and shapes. Their recommendations on your firm can add significant value to your reputation.

Don’t you ever adopt the “wait-and-see” approach with referrals. Always be proactive. Ask your most trusted customers to spread the gospel regarding your accounting firm.

Remember to utilize professional networking services’ such as LinkedIn for endorsements’ and recommendations and Place testimonials on your firm’s site.

Various accounting firms utilize a more structured referral rewards program. These provide existing customers with well-defined benefits or discounts as a result of the referrals.

Always recall that “Selling your firm’s services’ and finding new customers is not just about solving problems. It’s about genuine empathy, insights, and understanding.

Making good use of cloud based applications in your accounting firm marketing can assist you to reach a broader target market much more efficiently than your competitors.

Regardless of whether it’s to analyze your success and failures, to manage your campaigns’’, or to automate key tasks, there are lots of good choices with the ability to simplify your procedures and improve the way your firm operates.

The key point is not just to make your customers lives better with these applications, but to also market your firm’s use of these applications as a competitive advantage.

Use these applications to separate your firm from its competitions and make it stand out.

One significant opportunity accounting firms can utilize to publicize themselves to the existing clients' database better is through E-mail marketing.

Using a cloud-based newsletter application such as Constant Contact or MailChimp allows you to professionally and effectively reach a much more comprehensive audience with your messages.

A newsletter also goes a long way, keeping you in front of your database and granting you an opportunity to nurture your relationships with your potential clients.

Another useful advice is to segment contacts’ according to their interests’ to ensure you only send relevant and useful content, For instance, sending a series of instructions on receiving the biggest tax refunds to individual tax customers’, or sending non-profit customers tips on how to meet audit requirements.

Most firms have moved to clouds in the last couple of years. It’s not just a buzzword or a fad. In case your firm feels comfy with remote working, and in case a digital partnership with customers is your second nature, you are already well positioned to assist similar firms.

Take full advantage of your love for technology by marketing your accounting firm to the ideal prospective customers. Invite them to innovation and tech conferences- preferably only conferences’ you are sure you’ll attend.

Send these clients links to interesting, relevant, new tech stories and video clips. Share with them technology experts you respect such as;

Do not spam your customers endlessly. Remember less is more and Links to stories and clips full of insights indicate that you clearly understand their world.

Since we are now well into the year 2017, it’s the natural time for all digital marketers to review all the digital marketing trends they have used this year and evaluate their methods against other corporations’ in the same sector.

For marketers and salespersons’ involved in the Business to Business (B2B) sector, there are a number of pressing issues which, if attended to, will help “feed the sales funnel” and result in more quality leads.

An ideal starting point of reviewing all the trends capable of making an impact come next year is to think through innovations across all the major digital marketing channels.

The modern-day marketer needs to be extremely flexible. Nonetheless, despite the fact that change broods creativity, the goals and objectives’ of digital marketing ought to remain constant.

An entrepreneur employs a digital marketer to deliver the right message at numerous stages of the sales funnel. I.e., drive traffic, improve customer engagement, raise the brand’s awareness, and last but by no means the least, implement tactics that can result in conversions and sales.

In a survey regarding “Marketing trends for 2017”, marketers were asked to evaluate the techniques and tactics that would award them the maximum uplift on their businesses’ in the year 2017-18.

The results exhibited that the top-rated techniques’  which ought to be the main focus come next year are all closely aligned to B2B sector, which has’ for the last couple of years’ realized the significance of new technologies’ such as marketing automation, real-time personalization, and mobile marketing.

In this article, I’ll guide you through the top-rated and crucial B2B marketing trends that you should be using this year.

Marketing Automation happens to be the best technology for B2B marketing. Marketing automation is the class of technology that permits companies to automate, streamline, and measure their marketing workflows and tasks, so they can increase operational effectiveness and multiply their revenue faster.

​New trends in marketing will help marketers streamline their segmentation, lead generations, customer lifecycle marketing, cross-sell and up-sell, lead nurturing and lead scoring, customer retention, sales follow ups and Marketing Return on Investment (ROI) measurements.

A number of these practices’ are possible at small volumes’ without software, but then again technology becomes crucial with the increasing sum of channels’ marketers’ are required to manage.

In general, all these procedures require;

This is where you place all your marketing information, including customer interactions, detailed prospects, and customer behaviors’, so you can frame and send the ideal message to every customer.

Think of a central marketing database as the “system of records” for all your marketing info.

This is an environment for the management, creation, and automation of marketing procedures and conversations across offline and online channels.

You can think of engagement marketing engines as the “Orchestra conductors” for your customer interactions’.

This is a way to measure, test, and optimize the marketing Return on Investment and its impact on the revenue. Think of the analytic engine as the area you go to figure out what worked, what did not, and areas you can improve.

Content Marketing is an approach that has been utilized in B2B marketing for lots’ of years, though in the last several years, the fame of inbound marketing has resulted in more attention to social media and share blogs.

Over the past 3 or 4 years’, readers have voted content marketing as the most essential form of marketing available today. Within inbound and content marketing, I think the main ongoing discussion will revolve somewhere around maintaining the right sense of balance between content quality, content frequency, content quantity, and of course, measuring the Return On Investment of content marketing.

A certain research from Buzzsumo provided an interesting summary clarifying that the future of content marketing is dependent on less content and shorter content.

I totally agree with the less content part, but I opt to disagree with the shorter content part since research exhibits that lengthier content can be more efficient in Business to Business blog posts.

Content marketing is a fantastic approach for Business to Business marketers since the long client journey implies that customers’ desire doing lots’ of research before making a purchase so they can compare several distinct providers.

Website personalization is a well-known tactic for E-commerce sites but, conventionally speaking, this technique has been used less and less by business to business marketers’. This is shocking since personalization of e-mails using tactics such as lively content insertion as defined above is widely held.

There are SaaS software and products’ such as Evergage and BrightInfo which are used to make web personalization services cheaper for small companies.

These might also include automated features’ to suggest the most appropriate piece of content along the nurture path.

Channel integration alludes to the strategies meant to consolidate (either mentally or physically) client’s info and its usage to offer a broad view of the client.

With so many distinct digital marketing channels’, entrepreneurs’ have a tendency of focusing on individual channels’, even though an integrated nurturing procedure can reap amazing dividends.

Channel integration is more similar to client relationship management, and despite the fact that integrating your channels’ generally sounds’ like an impressive idea, you might struggle to define precisely why and how it should work for you.

It is pretty easy to think that channel integration is all about bringing together all the platforms you sell your products and services on, i.e., re-sellers, land-based retails, catalog, websites, social media platforms, etc.

Well, now let’s review channel integration from your client’s point of view. Whether a business’ or end user, most clients’ are driven by the need to learn more about your business, give it a try, buy a product or service, and lastly share the information.

And you also ought to understand that clients want to do all these things at anyplace and anytime they think it’s appropriate for them. Some clients will even jump from one sales’ channel to another on a steady basis.

This steady “channel hopping” is common; particularly for clients who bought from catalogs prior to the internet.

Your business might have a hard time meeting your clients’ needs and expectations’ if you only look at the integrating sales and offer activity. You might also miss’ the mark in case you assign values’ to your channels’ only based on the profit and revenue directly tied to each one.

Account based marketing (also alluded to as ABM) is a well-known approach in business to business marketing, especially within prominent organizations with structures’ and processes’ to target significant accounts.

ITSMA (which 1st pioneered Account based marketing more than ten years ago) defines it as;

“more than a marketing or sales approach; it is a combined strategy used to engage sales’, subject matter experts’, marketing, delivery professionals’, as well as key executives’ in the chosen customer account so as to determine how to meet the customer's unique business best’ challenges’.

With some deep insight into the customer’s business’ and key goals, this combined team comes up with a well-planned marketing and sales’ campaign for a particular account.”

Previously, account based marketing was a mindset and tactic poorly supported by most Marketing Automation Services’ whose focus was on individual customer records’.

The trend here is for automation services’ to include account based marketing features’ since this will make it more stress-free to nurture groups’ of individuals automatically through re-targeting and emails.

It goes without mentioning that the net shift to mobile phones is a significant trend for business to business marketers’, as it’s been for quite a few years now.

Some mobile marketing tactics are similar to advertisements delivered over distinct electronic channels such as graphics, text, and voice messages’.

Short Message Service (SMS) is at present the widest spread delivery channel for mobile marketers. Search engine marketing is the 2nd widespread channel followed by display based campaigns’.

These expanding capabilities’ of mobile phones also brought about new forms of interactive marketing. New-fangled mobile marketing channels’ include;

• Location-based services (LBS).

This involves the detection of the area (geo-location) the potential client is connecting from and sending short marketing texts for businesses’ in that particular area.

• Augmented reality.

These are mobile campaigns’ which overlay the user’s mobile phone display with area-specific information regarding products and businesses.

• 2D barcodes.

2D barcodes’ are barcodes capable of scanning both horizontally and vertically so as to consist of much more information. A mobile phone user can scan barcodes in the area to access the associated information.

• GPS messaging.

GPS messaging involves area specific short messages’ that the mobile user picks up every time he comes’ into range.

Whether you run a big company or a small business, expenses are something a business owner is always looking to cut down. Cutting expenses down isn't easy, it requires creativity and trying out new things that you may have never considered.

Printing isn't a cheap operation. Printing requires a lot of resources and equipment; ink cartridges are not cheap so if you are printing every day you might have to replace your ink cartridges several times a month which will end up costing you a fortune!

Medical coders are crucial in the field of healthcare. The medical coding specialists document the health care services offered so that patients get the best treatment and hospital facilities. Their major task consists of assigning codes for diagnosis, treatments, and medical procedures which requires very high degree of accuracy.

A medical coder files patient data for insurance purposes and ensures insurance claims are totally error free.

Medical coders will collect information from the documentation prepared and assign proper codes. They compose claims and make a decision whether it is to be paid by payer, patients or the CMS. 

Coding medical data gives right to use health care records as per the medical procedures for practice in clinical care and ongoing research. Medical codes help in identifying symptoms that must be assessed and to notify or alert medical coding experts to medical allergies.

The profession of a medical coder has attracted a huge demand in the recent times. This is because new medical procedures, treatments and processes are being discovered and introduced in the health care industry at a much faster rate.

Having top quality medical coding experts can eventually affect your profitability positively.

Effective patient collection has a large impact on the financial health of a practitioner. However, one of the major challenges to practicing in the healthcare industry is the slow pace of collection. If you have a small staff, it can become stressful to file and track collection of several patients.

Having expert medical coders can help reduce the number of denied claims and enhance the rate of collection. Precision in documentation and timely filing of the claims leads to speedy clearance of patient dues.

For achieving cost efficiency, you can even consider hiring medical coders on contractual basis. Medical coders, who have knowledge and relevant experience in the domain you deal in, can effectively turn up the collection rate with error free filing. They help you to speed up this rather slow process of patient collection.

A significant outcome of increase in collection rate leads to direct improvement in the cash flow. Cash flow is considered to be the most important function for any organization. It is the key component in keeping your organization running forward.

 So for a healthcare practitioner, it is absolutely vital to maintain a smooth and continuous cash flow. Having expert medical coders can help you achieve this with lesser efforts.

When patient collection is filed correctly, it reduces the chances of the payment being delayed or rejected. However, certification by authorized bodies is important to establish a successful working relationship model for medical coding experts.

Medical coders who are detail oriented and proficient in coding software, coding conventions, treatments and more can infuse profitability in your healthcare practice. This is because the time taken to receive payment goes down and as a result, the cash flow moves faster.

When your profitability is higher than the average profitability of the others in the market, you can use the surplus in multiple ways to sharpen your competitive edge. This could be in terms of better quality facilities or services at your healthcare organization.

A more systematic approach to patient due collection can give you a hand over other practitioners. Experienced medical coders carry out effective claim follow-up and patient follow-up. In case of rejected insurance claims, they speedily respond to denial resolution actions. Hiring medical coding experts make collection more efficient with high accuracy levels and quick turnaround time which ultimately makes you more competitive in the industry.

Being certified implies that you have sufficient education, experience, training and learning in medical coding to make you competent in this particular field.

Becoming a medical coding or billing expert does not happen in one single day, however. It needs many years of professional commitment and a significant awareness of medical domain details.

First, people go to a proficient school or organization, and in due course end up with a medical coding diploma or degree in health management. Education and proper training allows you to become skilled to take the medical certification exam.

Being certified not only proves you are professionally well trained but also proves that you know what you are dealing with in healthcare domain.

Also as a certified medical coder, your job needs having direct access to responsive medical information. Patients have full rights to privacy, which means that sharing this kind of data or information can lead to major legal issues.

So in order to have a job career in medical coding or billing, you need to be careful with all your job responsibilities. Typically, it is good for a medical coder to always treat any of the medical records as if they are unspecified of details.

The challenges faced by both medical coders as well as the healthcare organizations are multiple and will remain ongoing.

 Some of the current issues include getting used to continuous alterations in medical insurance billing and medical coding necessities.

The challenges even include lack of proficient staff, dealing with unskilled employees, increase in overall workloads, updations in billing and coding procedures as well as continuous alterations in health care systems.

In such a scenario, one of the finest ways to take on these different challenges would be outsourcing some of the work functions.

However finally it even cannot be denied that the dynamics of doing profitable business also applies to the healthcare industry. So while hiring medical coding experts you should be well aware that you are making a calculated investment whose returns would be worth in the coming time.
