When trying to offer everything under one roof, it’s virtually impossible, especially in the digital sector, where skills are incredibly varied. It is becoming increasingly popular for businesses to tailor their packages to other companies, allowing them to subcontract their work. The process, which is known as white-labelling, is when a company works on a project for another company who then give it to their client. Meaning the company doing the work doesn’t put their name to the product or service.
Why white-labelling?
It’s impossible to be good at everything. In fact, it’s an outright lousy business decision to try to do everything. However, it will often unfold that one of your customers may need a service that’s complementary to what you offer. If in this scenario, you feel you’re unable to complete the job to the necessary standard. You may elect to hire another company to do the work for you. However, rather than fully outsourcing the work, you pay for the service provided and sell it on with your branding.
How it could work for you
So, you’re a kick-ass graphic designer, your branding design work and graphics are second to none. However, your latest customer doesn’t just want a rebrand, they want a complete rebuild of their website too. In these increasingly challenging times, do you want to miss out on that work, simply because you don’t feel comfortable building the website? Well, if you do, you shouldn’t, because white-labelling is here to help.
More to offer!
One of the key reasons why companies choose to white-label is because it increases their offering and capabilities. When it comes to white-labelling services, if your company offers SEO, PPC and marketing management, you could add graphic design, web design and plenty more to that list.
As a business, the more you can offer, the more of an expert you become within your sector. This, in turn, can lead to increased customer loyalty as well as more business, which is a win-win for everyone involved, including your clients.
Saves on labour overheads
When you decide to work with an outside team, it doesn’t just eradicate the extra wage you would have to pay if you recruited for that job. It also means the cost of the recruitment itself is removed.
