Many companies struggle to decide whether to handle a project in-house or outsource it to an agency. This challenge often involves balancing core competencies, budget constraints, and internal resources. What factors should influence your decision when leveraging external expertise to improve operational dynamics and competitiveness? 

According to Dr. Jeremy Weisz, several steps exist to effectively navigate this dilemma. Begin by assessing whether the task aligns with your business’s core strengths; if it doesn’t, consider outsourcing for the necessary expertise. Next, evaluate the long-term costs, including any potential hidden opportunity costs. Finally, take a closer look at your internal resources and their ability to manage the task. Sometimes, outsourcing relieves internal strain and leads to better outcomes, especially when specialized skills are required.
