Why you should use Time etc
Do you actually know the true cost of hiring a hand for your business? Will let me tell you! A lot more than it should!
Lets use a secretary for an example:
| The cost of a secretary in the City of London: | |
|---|---|
| Basic annual salary | £28,000 |
| Desk, computer and office rental | £15,000 |
| Company pension scheme (10 per cent) | £2,800 |
| National Insurance Contributions (11.8 per cent) | £3,300 |
| Annual cost of full-time secretary (assuming 100 per cent of time spent typing) |
£49,100 |
| Outsourced secretarial services: | |
| Hourly rate | £16 |
| For the same hours as above | £28,800 |
| Potential cost saving on one secretary | £20,300 |
Time Etc run by Barnaby Lashbrooke provides superheros at a fraction of the cost of hiring a fulltime superhero to do those things you don’t have time for. They can just take and receive calls or they can chase late payers, check emails and arrange meetings.
Barnaby is no first timer to business either having setup and sold a web hosting business, here he is on his own words!
Ever since I can remember I’ve been interested in business and started my first proper business, SupaNames - a hosting company, aged 17 with £150.
SupaNames ended up hosting the websites of around 24,000 businesses all over the world and won multiple industry awards (seeing off a few much bigger competitors). I sold the business to Pipex Communications PLC in 2006 and became a multi-millionaire aged 23.
Following a quick stint at Pipex I established Time Etc - a business that helps business owners and entrepreneurs to achieve more by intelligently taking care of the time consuming tasks (like answering the phone, dealing with email and coping with a long todo list) that get in the way of growing a business.
Uptake has been strong and since January the business has grown by 400%. Find out what all the fuss is about by visiting our website here.
