About
*“Startup success is not a consequence of knowing everything. Whether you like it or not, the fate of your startup will rely on multiple brains, not just your own. Creating a tech startup in today’s world can be done by any smart entrepreneur – the key is knowing how to connect with the right network.” *– Eric Ries, author of The Lean StartupThis quote explains my philosophy on why "a startup's success in today’s tech world depends on its Business Technology Advisor "
Information Technology, made simple.
Founder of businesses are usually faced with fear of outsourcing its IT development need (be it building a web/mobile app, a MVP, a prototype or a product) to the wrong developers. My role is designed to help non-technical founders hire, assess and partner with developers and vetted teams to work or co-work as an extension of your in-house lean IT team. Saving time, money and the guess work that goes into wasted efforts using multiple contractors, freelancers and un-vetted offshore partners.
"Everyone can write, but not everyone is a writer."
Several of my current and past clients had the common problem of not being able critique the developer’s decision on the preference of a programming language or platform for a project or may be the time estimations. Most developers are code passionate and they forget the need of the hour or miss to envision the bigger picture and often over engineer a solution or end up not future proofing their approach. Clients overcame having a non-technical founder by hiring a technical partner who could fill the gap. The reason these clients are now a major success is due to the fact their non-technical founders found the right partner, who could help them progress with the help of right technological advice be it Tech or Talent.
