When building a team, businesses today have more options than ever. The decision often boils down to two main choices: hiring dedicated staff or engaging freelancers. While both have merits, understanding the differences can help you determine the right fit for your business needs. Relay Human Cloud’s outsourcing model offers an innovative solution that combines the best of both worlds.
Flexibility and Commitment
Freelancers are celebrated for their flexibility. They’re often the go-to choice for short-term projects or specialized tasks. However, this flexibility comes at a cost: freelancers may juggle multiple clients, leading to delays or divided attention.
On the other hand, dedicated staff are fully committed to your business. They integrate into your team, align with your goals, and provide consistent support. With Relay Human Cloud, dedicated staff are not just employees—they’re an extension of your team, offering reliability and continuity.
Cost Efficiency
Cost is a significant factor when deciding between freelancers and dedicated staff. Freelancers often charge premium hourly or project rates, especially for highly specialized skills. These costs can quickly add up for ongoing or complex needs.
Relay Human Cloud provides dedicated staff at a fraction of the cost of hiring locally. Our pricing is transparent and inclusive—covering office space, technology, benefits, and other essentials in one fixed number. Unlike traditional recruiting methods, there are no recruiting fees, which typically range from 10-20% of the candidate’s salary. This eliminates upfront costs and maximizes your budget.
Quality and Accountability
Freelancers operate independently, which can sometimes lead to inconsistent quality or misaligned priorities. Since they are not embedded within your organization, maintaining accountability can be challenging.
Dedicated staff from Relay Human Cloud are carefully selected to meet your specific requirements. They work under your guidance and standards, ensuring consistent quality and alignment with your objectives. Additionally, our staff are equipped with the tools and resources they need to excel in their roles.
Scalability and Long-Term Value
Freelancers excel in handling one-off projects but may not be the best option for scaling your business. The process of finding, onboarding, and managing multiple freelancers can become cumbersome and inefficient.
Dedicated staff offer a scalable solution. With Relay Human Cloud, expanding your team is seamless. Our model allows you to quickly onboard skilled professionals, ensuring your team grows alongside your business. This long-term investment fosters loyalty, knowledge retention, and sustained productivity.
