On Thursday, June 18th, 2015, Solutions Resource’s founder, managing director, and principal consultant, Jet Castro, will speak at the International Business Strategies Panel at the University of Washington. The event will occur in the Bank of America Center and will begin at 11:15 AM in the morning and end at 12:15 PM in the afternoon.
During this panel, participants in the Minority Business Executive Program will learn about the years of success that Solutions Resource has had with its markets and why it has been successful with those audiences. Jet will provide insights into these achievements and share valuable lessons with the group.
Solutions Resource’s staff members also work in the Philippines because its parent company, Solutions Resource IT, is based there. This means Jet must manage a large team overseas from the United States. He will explain the challenges of managing international operations and how the company addresses them.
In addition, Jet will discuss why Solutions Resource’s clients benefit from outsourcing their website, search engine optimization, and software development needs to the Solutions Resource IT staff in the Philippines. These benefits include cost savings and access to skilled professionals.
For example, wages for non-agriculture jobs in the Philippines are 481 Pesos (“National Wages and Productivity Commission. 6 May 2015.”), which equals $10.62 in US dollars (“Exchangerate.com. Inc. 1998-2012.”). This is significantly more affordable than the $33.02 wage that a website development professional would receive in the United States (“U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. March 25, 2015.”). As a result, organizations save money by outsourcing projects to Solutions Resource IT in the Philippines rather than hiring US-based firms.
Furthermore, if the Solutions Resource IT staff in the Philippines possess high levels of expertise in technological skills such as mobile application and website development, the firm can highlight these advantages to the Minority Business Executive Program. This demonstrates how clients benefit from outsourcing projects like search engine optimization to a team capable of addressing diverse technological needs.
Solutions Resource also recognizes that many business owners in the Minority Business Executive Program face challenges such as developing mobile-friendly websites but may lack the financial resources to hire expensive US-based firms. Some may also feel that certain web development companies lack the necessary expertise. Jet will emphasize how Solutions Resource’s staff can meet these needs effectively and affordably, helping organizations save money while achieving high-quality results.
By sharing this information, Solutions Resource enables participants to understand how the company addresses diverse technological challenges, including software development. Attendees can then decide whether to work with Solutions Resource directly or refer the company to other organizations facing similar challenges.
Importance of the International Business Strategies Panel
The International Business Strategies Panel is an important event for Solutions Resource because it provides an opportunity to showcase how the firm meets the technological needs of its markets. It also highlights the benefits audiences receive from outsourcing projects such as software development and the success Solutions Resource has achieved in serving its clients.
This information helps attendees decide whether to conduct business with Solutions Resource or refer other organizations to the company. If enterprises determine that Solutions Resource can address complex technology challenges that other firms cannot, they may choose to outsource projects like website design and development to the company.
Additionally, attendees may refer other organizations to Solutions Resource, leading to more outsourcing opportunities in areas such as search engine optimization. This would allow Solutions Resource to expand its reach, serve additional markets, and continue its success in both the present and future.
