Hi Dan and Deanna .. outsourcing can sure work, particularly locally as it'll give you some control over what's happening etc.
Keep a handle on it though - and each country will have different aspects to consider ..
Hello Hilary,
It is best to work with someone locally when it comes to this kind of thing. You can sit down and have a face to face with them. That works out very well.
Have a great day.
