Staffing Size for Web Team?

Mark

One of the other way's of making sure you get the right size team is to be clear on what you are NOT responsible for.  You mention other "smaller time consuming tasks".

If these are related to the core work you do then perhaps you are doing them down ie if they are housekeeping tasks to keep databases running or uptodate, or reporting tasks to provide management information.  Should those be properly included in the work of your "team"? would that help show why you need another person?

ON the other hand if they are not really to do with your work, maybe inherited from a previous post or skill set, or dumped with you cos noone else would take it on, should you flag up that these don't require your skills and should move somewhere else?

Hope you get it sorted out, it's hard to get extra resources, particularly if you are doing a good job and actually getting everything done!

Can anyone offer me some guidance on how many people are employeed in your web and/or emarketing department.

I work for a large global company and I'm the sole person responsible for maintaining our website along with overseeing email marketing campaigns. And in addition, I'm tasked with many smaller time consuming tasks.

I am trying to build a case for additional employees/resources to help create a solid web/emarketing team, but I don't have any information to back up my request.

Getting some information about the number of employees that make up a web team or emarketing team in other companies along with a list of associated job titles/functions would help me build a better case by knowing what other companies are doing.

Any information or help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
