The first step is always the toughest so we'll help
get you going. You're here because
you're looking for solutions. But,
you have no idea how this "outsourcing" scenario works. Well,
it's pretty simple.
-
First,
you must determine what it is that you need. We
can help with that.
-
Second,
you have to evaluate all the information you received
from the various vendors who are wanting to fulfill your needs.
-
Third,
you have to select one of these vendors.
-
And,
finally, you contact us...we mean...the desired vendor and
make arrangements!
Here
are a few more tips:
-
Ask
for a fixed rate price. You
have a budget and your vendor should be able to keep you within that budget.
-
Know
your approximate due dates. Some vendors are going to want to
"work you in" to their schedules. And, that may not fit your
needs!
If you
still aren't sure how to proceed, contact us. We'll
be happy, FREE OF CHARGE, to point you
in the "write" direction.

Step
1: Determining
Your Needs. It's
very common to have no clue as to what you need or where to begin.
Usually, we find that a client knows where they want to end up, e.g.,
with a user guide or online help system. However, getting from here to
there is a complete mystery. (Well,
maybe it’s a mystery to you, but not to us!)
That’s where our experience steps in! It allows us to quickly understand
what you want, recommend the best solution, and deliver your end product in the
fastest time possible. (And, no,
we’re not surprised that you have a deadline that sits very close on the
horizon that you’re trying to meet. That’s
typical!)
Step
2: Reviewing
Incoming Information. The information is pouring in and you
just can't get a handle on all the pieces.
So, here's what we suggest: determine the one most important factor in
your project--due date, price, final end product look, etc. Then, review your
notes and see who can deliver on this key component.
Step
3: Selecting
Your Vendor. You've now emailed and faxed
and talked to everyone under the sun, and reviewed and re-reviewed all the
"stuff." So, how do you
decide? Again, go back to the most
important factor and make your selection based on that factor alone. Still can't decide? Then call us. Even if we're not one of your choices, we only want you to
get the best results. (Remember, if
you use someone else and they don't perform as expected, you're going to come
back to us to either fix what’s already been done or come to us first the next
time around!)
Step
4: Calling Us
With the Good News! We've
guided you through the "need to find someone" process easily.
In most cases, if you’ve given us the chance to win your business, you also
found out exactly how much this “adventure” is going to cost
you. We hope that's all you require
to decide that we are the "write" choice for your project!
