A List of Startup Outsource Designed and Other Virtual Services

So as a follow up to my last blog... I figured I'll put together a bit of a list of my favorite resources from around the web for bootstrap startups that want to get access to some great outsource/virtual services (esp. on the design side).

So I thought I'd share some of my favorite (startup/outsourced design) resources are:
  • iStockphoto.com - the standard in cheap stock photos)
  • fotolia.com - run by my friend Patrick Lor, formerly of iStockphoto, this is his new gig
There are others of course, and please feel free to let me know.

I have also discovered (and heard great things about):
  • Shoeboxed - which seems like an awesome service to get your recipets and business cards scanned for a pretty reasonable price (and has a netflix like subscription/mail in monthly model).
  • eLance - everything from transcription services (tried putting a bid out) to outsourced developers (no experience yet)

  1. odesk.com is a good resource (marketplace for small and medium sized business to hire, manage, and pay remote freelancers or teams).
    Also my company 24-7 INtouch (www.24-7intouch.com) is a call center outsourcer that specializes in providing services like ordertaking, and customer service support to online businesses.
