Happy Halloween!
It has been quite some time since my last post, and that is mostly because of urgent workload demands. One of the things I have been struggling with is finding good sub-contractors, who are reliable, professional and knowledgeable. I get asked fairly frequently by our customers and partners if we have someone who can do something... Most of the time my search turns up empty because of a small pool to draw from from. At Progentus we focus only on our core competency as we know we can't be everything to everyone. This enables us to excel at our consulting business and SaaS offerings, but leaves us and our partners in the cold when it comes to helping customers with other things. I think we would all agree, the secret to ongoing service and solution success is not to let your competitor in the door. The question is, how do you do that if you don't have the resources to handle the whole enchilada? My answer is a large pool of really well vetted sub contractors. But how do you build the pool? Asking for referrals has netted me almost zero. Thus a new function was born.
My opinions on many things about the technology industry, raising three daughters, volunteering my time and anything else that strikes my fancy.
