Check out how Useme helped GroupMedia in outsourcing marketing tasks.

A company that takes care of books

GroupMedia specializes in preparing publications for print. They collaborate with publishing houses, book-publishing institutions, and authors by taking care of cover design, formatting, text layout, as well as proofreading and editing.

Outsourcing tasks came with a lot of disappointment

Like almost every company, we need to carry out regular marketing activities, so we wanted to reach out for external support. The longer we tried to find a suitable partner for that, the larger was our disappointment associated with outsourcing marketing tasks.

We didn’t feel well taken care of while being under the wings of larger marketing agencies. They treated us in a standardized manner and without proper attention. Maybe it was because we’re not a large company, and they knew it wouldn’t be a permanent collaboration.

Summing up: Larger companies didn’t prioritize us, and it was challenging to find a reliable partner. I even remember a situation where one of our sales websites was started and left unfinished five times.

Help was waiting for us within reach

One day, we started working with a freelancer from Useme. To be honest, we didn’t have any expectations. Much to our surprise, he almost immediately completed the sales page for our book. We decided to check if we would receive equally effective assistance in fixing the form on our website. And we did!

It was very refreshing to not have to send multiple inquiries or worry about the timely completion of the task, as it was the case when assigning work to agencies. From that moment on, we consciously chose Useme freelancers, and now this is where we turn for help.

We’ll continue to use it

Recently, we used this platform to find someone to optimize our AdWords campaign. This is a challenging situation because our industry has ambiguous, difficult-to-position keywords. Two agencies couldn’t handle this task. Meanwhile, a Useme freelancer, who treated our situation very individually, handled this project excellently.

Now we fearlessly approach fresh marketing concepts 

I like that outsourcing tasks through Useme is so quick and easy: you post a job, and after a few hours, you have the first freelancer offers with a proposed budget and completion time.

Having Useme at our fingertips, we know that we can not only quickly plan but also efficiently implement our marketing ideas — without all the hassle associated with outsourcing tasks to external agencies.

A large base of freelancers that Useme offers is one thing. However, we also value that, thanks to this platform, a freelancer without a company can issue an invoice to us after completing the task. The transaction is safe for both parties.

We recommended this solution to all our partners, and we recommend it to you

Useme worked for us so well that we suggested it to our partners. Around GroupMedia, there is a community of companies, editors, proofreaders, writers, visual artists, and graphic designers. Whenever they are looking for a freelancer or a way to settle deals with subcontractors – I recommend Useme to them.

I honestly think it’s the perfect solution for smaller companies that can’t hire specialists full-time and don’t have budgets or time to wait in line at big firms. The choice of subcontractors is really vast, and the entire process from order to completion is very quick.

We know that small companies cannot afford false starts and unfinished tasks. Useme monitors the timeliness of orders. It’s our safety net in the race for the best results. Posting a job on Useme makes us feel secure, knowing that the task will always be completed.
