If you can carefully construct ascope of work document, that's going to make the headaches go away later. Out sourcing agreements fail most often because the buyer's expectations would not clear up front. You understand the more detail you get into up front, the better the experience will be when it's completed. And then, and then one final big mistake that that's made on the outsourcing part is not not constructing a good out sourcing agreement.

Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. Think long and hard about outsourcing, and partner with someone who has the same interest as you. Find someone who will be a good compliment to you - so that what you need, they can provide, and what they need, you can provide.
2. Focusing on your core business is critical. If you are the captain of the ship and there’s a problem in the engine room, it might be good to have an understanding of what’s going on in that engine room.
3. The greatest product and shopping experience can be undermined by a poor fulfillment experience.
