Without a doubt, outsourcing is very popular among businesses because of the benefits that one can gain from it. Outsourcing companies have been very active in seeking new clients as they take advantage of the situation where the benefits of outsourcing is already out there in the open. As both non-voice and voice solutions gain popularity in different key outsourcing destinations, there is a question that enters the minds of those who have been monitoring the outsourcing industry; the question being "Do businesses really get to maximize their outsourcing partnership with a strategic solutions provider?"
We have previously written an article ACN entitled "How to Maximize Your Outsourcing Partnership" that provides tips on how a business can move past the barriers that could be encountered when engaging with an outsourcing partner. The article points out three key points: 1.) Keep it Clear, 2.) Set the Bar, and lastly 3.) Be Hands-on. We may have overlooked to include one other key point in the previous article, which is to seek the services of an outsourcing solutions provider that is trusted and preferred by many. Having a trusted outsourcing partner by your side would enable you to drive your business towards your goal without having to be troubled by the demands of your operations team. There was study that was conducted by Accenture (NYSE:ACN) during the months of September and October in the previous year that suggests only 20 percent of the 263 buyers that was surveyed for the study is able to recognize the full value of their partnership with a business process outsourcing company. This is not an unusual case as most companies are only focused on cost reductions and are unaware of the necessary management and transition processes. In the study, 8 characteristics have been pointed out by Accenture that are common among the 20 percent who have already realized the full potential that is brought by outsourcing. Among these would be focusing on the benefits beyond cost reductions. Outsourcing could bring to your business a wide range of benefits that you can get when you partner with a solutions provider. Another is that high performers in the business process outsourcing industry have already established and adopted an approach towards management and governance processes. Although it is the objective of the partnership established between parties to get the job done, there are still key areas that need to be maintained in order for them to look forward to that contract renewal. Outsourcing may appear to be quite simple; it is actually simple but only if you have been doing it for a long time already. There is a lot to learn about outsourcing that does not come in a manual which is why it is important for a business to first assess their needs and their potential partners. Outsourcing companies that are serious and dedicated about what they do would definitely help you along the way, allowing you to fully realize the value of outsourcing and create a sound outsourcing environment for you.

Consulting and outsourcing services provider Accenture Plc (ACN.N) reported better-than-expected quarterly revenue and profit as its investments to boost digital and cloud services pay off. Shares of the company were up 5.4 percent on Thursday and was the biggest boost on the S&P 500. They touched a record high of $124.96 earlier in the session. Increasing demand for digital services from businesses has forced IT service providers to beef up their security, cloud and analytics services. Accenture said it would continue with its push to the services which it refers to as "The New". "We will continue to invest in high-growth areas ... with a particular focus on digital, cloud and security services," Chief Executive Pierre Nanterme said in a statement. In fiscal year 2016, the company invested more than $930 million ACN in acquisitions, 70 percent of which in "The New". The company spent about $800 million on acquisitions last year. Accenture said in September it would buy three companies: DayNine, a partner of human resources software provider Workday Inc (WDAY.N), Octo Technology, a technology consultancy firm based in France, and Kurt Salmon, a unit of Management Consulting Group Plc (NZX.L). Accenture is relying on digital services to gain market share from rivals including IBM Corp (IBM.N) and India's Infosys Ltd (INFY.NS) and Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS.NS). Revenue from Accenture's "The New", which includes digital, cloud and security-related services, accounted for 40 percent of total revenue in fiscal year 2016, up from about 30 percent in the previous year. "I think what differentiates Accenture from its competitors is...they were very early to make digital investments... and (that) is now bearing fruit," Edward Jones analyst Bill ACN Kreher said. Accenture said it expected first-quarter revenue between $8.40 billion and $8.65 billion. Analysts on average had expected $8.59 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. Net income rose to $1.13 billion, or $1.68 per share, in the fourth quarter ended Aug. 31 from $788.13 million, or $1.15 per share, a year earlier. Excluding items, the company earned $1.31 per share, beating the average analyst estimate by 1 cent. Revenue rose 7.6 percent to $8.49 billion, above the estimated $8.43 billion. (Reporting by Rishika Sadam in Bengaluru; Editing by Sayantani Ghosh and Don Sebastian) http://www.reuters.com/article/us-accenture-results-idUSKCN11Z1ER American Communications Network (ACN) is a multi level marketing (MLM) company. Is ACN a pyramid scheme? First, you need to know that a pyramid scheme makes money off of sign up fees without selling any product or service. Pyramid schemes are illegal. So, therefore, since ACN ACN does sell services it is not a pyramid scheme. Many people believe that all MLM businesses are scams. That is simply not true, MLMs are legally operating businesses. Now, let us take a look at the reps. The people who are making the allegations that ACN is a scam are more than likely reps who have failed at making money in this business. Since these former reps did not make any money, it must therefore be a scam. Some people in MLMs act dishonest. They will out and out lie to you. In fact, they may promise you fast riches and suck you into schemes to make money off of you. That is why legal MLMs have a bad reputation. So to emphasize my point again, most MLM companies including ACN are not scams. ACN is marketing telecommunication services. They market telephone services by partnering with the major telecommunication carriers out there. ACN is currently partnering with Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Dish Network, Direct TV, etc. If ACN were a scam, these companies would not put their reputation on the line by partnering with ACN. In order to get started in ACN, you need $500.00. If you were to start any other business, you would need much more than that. You cannot treat ACN or any MLM business as a hobby. This is a business, your business. You need to work hard at promoting your business. You cannot be a success in any MLM company unless you are willing to work at it. If your business was a franchise of some sort, you would need to work at it every day. You would not be able to just open the franchise and sit back and make money. The same is true with your MLM business. Just because it is a home based business, does not mean you do not have to do the work. In order to be successful, you need to present your business to a lot of people. Presenting your business to family and friends is a start, but it is not enough. You need to make the commitment to yourself that you will work hard to succeed. People are trying to figure out the secret to making a lot of money with CAN or any MLM business. In order to succeed you need to be able to generate hundreds of leads each day online and build your business. You cannot waste time on one prospect. To do this, you need an endless supply of hot MLM leads. You must master the MLM lead generation skill set. This is the 21st century way of building MLM business. You need to brand yourself as a leader. People do not join companies, they join people. If you want to learn the secrets of how to generate hundreds of leads each day, if you want to have the same secrets as the top earners have, then click on the link below. http://small-business.ezinemark.com/acn-is-it-legitimate-or-scam-16af94ee5ab.html |
