Rant from the CEO: Why ‘Cheap Outsourcing’ is a Race to the Bottom Mar 7, 2025

🚨 We tried. We really did. The SBA team did everything possible to stop our CEO from ranting about this one. But after one too many horror stories about businesses choosing bargain-bin outsourcing, we could not hold him back any longer.

You get what you pay for. Simple as that.

Yet, I still see businesses making the same costly mistake—chasing the cheapest outsourcing option, only to end up frustrated, redoing work, and wasting even more money.

Let me be blunt: outsourcing isn’t just about cost-cutting. It’s about efficiency, expertise, and value. When you pick the cheapest provider, here’s what often happens:
❌ Work comes back half-done—or worse, completely unusable.
❌ Communication is a nightmare.
❌ You spend more time fixing problems than focusing on growth.

And that is before even thinking about cyber risks from engaging someone on Upwork for confidential work.

At SBA, we don’t compete on price. We compete on quality.
✅ We work with highly skilled professionals.
✅ We integrate seamlessly with your team.
✅ We save you time, not just money.

Because here’s the truth: Real outsourcing success isn’t about paying less. It’s about getting more.

What’s your take? Have you ever had an outsourcing experience where “cheap” cost you more in the long run?
