According to a report from International Data Corporation, the global outsourcing market will exceed $121 billion by the year 2000. Many companies that downsize, re-prioritize or expand find outsourcing a cost-effective decision for fulfilling corporate functions. Outsourcing is often an essential aspect of their business strategy. By outsourcing, companies can focus on functions, such as product development, that give them a competitive advantage.

Outsourcing often eliminates or delays the need to hire full-time staff and avoids tasking overworked staff. Stahr Design helps companies with their print and web design needs without extending their in-house marketing staff. We are your incremental resource. We provide the same service as an in-house design department at a fraction of the cost.

Lower cost
The base salary paid to employees does not represent the total cost to the company. There is the cost of benefits such as FICA, insurance, workmen's compensation, pension plans and profit sharing plans. Many employees also enjoy incentive and bonus plans. In addition, employers must also pay employees for holidays and vacation days. Typically, there are 10 paid holidays each year and a minimum of 2 weeks of vacation. There are also costs associated with hiring staff, such as job posting and advertising, resume reviews and interviewing expense. When you outsource your design needs to Stahr Design you pay only for the work performed.

Availability
Maintaining in-house expertise in all facets of print and web design may not be economically feasible. Balancing the requirements of your company with the workload and skills of your staff may be impossible. We smooth the demands placed on your internal staff. You hire us only when you need us. There is no long-term commitment, when the job is complete or your business declines we move on.

Talent
When you hire Stahr Design you hire experienced professionals with more than fifteen years experience in all print and web design functions. We have extensive experience and provide complete project management throughout each stage of strategy and planning, concept development, design and production to meet your needs. We take our extensive experience and apply it to your marketing plans, processes and initiatives.

Objectivity
A fresh, objective perspective often helps companies overcome obstacles. Sometimes developers and in-house staff are so close to a product or service they miss important marketing opportunities. We ask questions, we probe product plans and we translate technical features into customer benefits.

Speed
Sometimes the quickest way to get something done is to give it to an outside vendor. We are productive from the start. We build on your strengths by leveraging our experience with the core competencies of your staff. You can dedicate your precious internal resources to activities that generate the highest return. Together we maximize your investment.
