RE: tippy toeing toward a conversation of Global Small Business (proactive? reactive?)

[from MM]
   On my humble opinion, companies in the US will continue to endure high cost in employment and regulations impose by the goverment when overseas is not an option. Unemployment as we all know is affecting MNCs products or services, we just need to search for the automotive industries and we will see that those companies offering smaller and greener technology are surviving this economic meltdown.
   I work closely with human resources professionals dedicated to recruit for global companies, and we all agree that high salaries and benefits offered by MNCs companies are greater than domestic companies. However, when sending an employee overseas can be cheaper as they get compensated according to the standards of the country in which the employee will be working. But still a good option for MNCs to continue to send employment overseas.
   Your approach to proactive and reactive reasons as a matter of survival, well said.

   Thanks M-. By focusing on the smallest of business I was looking to find businesses that just went Global ... and then got sidetracked. It's still a worthy pursuit, but the direction of the consideration proved meaningful enough anyway.
   However, when dealing with, as I used for an example, a business as small as a start up ad firm, or even an individual freelancer, there's little chance that one will outsource anything. In the instances when one does so, profit taking is not the motivation. At this level the planet truly becomes borderless!
