Not create new ones
Focus on growing your business and stop trying to organize the chaos of applications
Because you should be enjoying your son’s match instead of copying data from a bloody Excel sheet.
Because it’s lunchtime, and you still haven’t finished the tasks your computer tells you to do. Shouldn’t it be the other way around?
Because Murphy has already shown you 24345 times that he’s still lurking.
Because you have better things to do than to understand what SELECT COUNT(*) FROM STUPIDCLIENTS WHERE STATUS=“PEST” means.
Because the “Project Manager” of the “Development Team” assures you that, after delaying the delivery of your new software for the eighteenth time, you will have it ready in another fortnight. For sure. Let me die if it’s not true!
Because you don’t want your heart to skip a beat every time you get an email that says “I have access to your computer”. Even though you know it’s impossible, isn’t it?
Because you hate being made to feel stupid by deciphering hieroglyphics like SEO, CRM, API, ERP, ETL, VR, AI or LOL.
Because you’re sick of paying 47 bills month after month after month for services that you’re ab-so-lu-te-ly convinced no one on your team uses at all. But no one dares to confirm it.
Because your employees don’t deserve to have to spend 39 minutes 24 seconds filling in a form after every 2-minute conversation with a customer.
Because you are depressed to discover, after 7 days without any fu*** new online order, that mysteriously the button to confirm the purchase has disappeared from your sales website. And no one has noticed. For the third time this month.
Because you still have to pay for and maintain that software that you supposedly replaced with a more powerful and modern one 5 years ago. Just in case.
Because no one would believe that the website that appears on the thousands of business cards you have distributed over the years has stopped working. Since when?
Because after updating seven applications and restarting your computer three times, you have already forgotten about the important and urgent thing you wanted to do.
Because here’s a notice of another legal change that will force you to talk to (and pay for) your advisors to review your website’s cookie notices, terms and conditions and all the legal mumbo-jumbo.
Because you cried tears of joy when you rescued your post-it with all your passwords that had mysteriously ended up in the paper basket. Hallelujah! Where are you going to keep it now?
Because for the third time in two years the new “expert” recommends you to throw away everything you have already developed (and paid for) and start all over again.
Because, in theory, you are responsible for your clients’ information, but, in practice, you have no f***ing idea where it is stored or who has access to it.
Because Google sends you the final warning that that software is going to stop working, that you don’t know what it’s for, but it looks like you have to replace it before the end of the month.
Because you’ve been holding your car keys in your hand for 3 hours while the system update progress bar is still at 99% with a “don’t shut me down or reboot” message.
Because you deserve better than that.
The bad news is that cases like this are more common than people want to believe.
The good news is that they can be solved.
Leave me your email address and I will tell you from my experience:
- How a simple automation allowed a company to validate if their business idea was profitable, saving them from paying for hundreds of content and bringing forward months of having an appetizing product.
- Why it is important to assemble the IT Frankenstein with the right pieces so that your business is agile and the monster doesn’t eat it.
- What do the different consultancy firms have in common to understand if what they are advising you is what you need or what is convenient for them.
- Finally, when you should rethink whether the parts of your IT system are still the help you hired when you selected them.
And best of all
- What are the steps you need to take to avoid your love affair relationship with your developer ending up like Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s marriage.
