Hi, fastlaners!
I know that an idea by itself is nothing, and my boss at my job also tells me that it is more about "someone who can take this idea and realize it", but...
I still feel like learning about other people's opinion on this topic.
If I want to hire someone from oDesk, how do I protect my website?
For example, I'd like to hire
-A web designer.
What I'm cautious about: He will have access to my ftp, wordpress, all content. I'm actually worried about this one a lot. He might hack me or something lol. And he sees exactly what I'm tweaking on my website to get maximum ... *conversion*, if we use Internet Marketing terms .
What he won't get access to: However, he probably won't have any access to my email newsletters (but he can SPY on it!) or how I handle clients who contact me directly through email/phone/other ways.
-An ebook writer/product creator.
I don't even know how these are hired, but I'm sure it is possible, right?
What I'm cautious about: This ebook writer can write my book, and try to sell it later
However, he will not have access to my marketing plan or anything. Same goes with outsourcing any product creation.
Is there any way to minimize the risks even further?
Thanks!
