To: All OI members and Outsourcing Professionals Around the World

Important member Update re: "Project Emergency Access"
What a trying week this has been for all of us. Chaotic and stressful for many...
even surreal for some.
If there was ever a time for a global discussion – for connecting, sharing, and the
support of a community of peers - now is indeed the time.
If you are like many of the OI members that have contacted me this past week, you are
concerned about the current economic environment. You are wondering where this is all
heading and what impact it will have on your company, your current priorities, and
even your job.
You are not alone and we are committed to helping.
Project Emergency Access -
click here to start your FREE subscription
In response to your recent request and the current historic circumstances, I have given
my team the green light to open up our new premium portal to allow all members of the
outsourcing ecosystem around the world to connect and support each other.
No one really knows how this bail-out scenario will play out. Confidence seems low –
anxiety high. However, if you believe information is power, then help yourself to this
new power source at www.outsourcing.com
(just click the large orange power button).
If you believe, as I do, that this business is just as much about who you know as what you
know then the prospect of tapping into a interactive network of over 70,000 members worldwide
should certainly perk up your Rolodex and your ability to power through this.
The innovative new outsourcing community and marketplace as well as the associated Premium
Access Membership subscription was originally planned to be completed by year end, to be
launched in January and to require a monthly fee. Our give back to the community – our way
to be there now when you need us - is to open the portal now to all –
free for the next 90 days
until the formal launch in January.
Although all the aspects of the site are not yet complete, there are several features in
place there now that will provide you the access to what you need to weather this storm.
For example:
- Access to interactive discussion forums that will allow you to keep your fingers on
the pulse of what's going on and what others are doing
- Access to a treasure trove of research white papers and opinion pieces
- Access to OTV video briefings as well as mini Powerpoint briefings and training from
the top outsourcing experts on the planet
- Access to a self-publishing capability that will allow you to post and share your
thoughts and expertise, whether it be text, recordings or even webinars, or video. If you
can provide something that will benefit the network – we will provide the global stage
- Access to interactive tools, an outsourcing concierge helpdesk and much more
It's all about access and it's there now.
Project Emergency Access is our response – it is our way of being there for our members
and providing everyone in this business the ever so critical access necessary to survive
if not thrive in these uncertain times.
So, if you are interested, simply register.
Sincerely,
Frank Casale
