Website development

If a manager decides to hire system administrator, maintenance programmer, copywriter/editor, designer, and Webmaster to develop a new business Website rather than outsourcing the project. How is it best for the manager to approach the issue taking in consideration that the human resources to be hired must be fully utilized in order to generate profits. Will the decision have any effect on the package of features that may be offered on the website?

Total cost - $ (17,000+250+125)x 3 + 250 = $ 52,375/-
Note: Salary+Facilities+Software Depreciation for 3 months + Training Cost
