What happens when your software developer doesn’t know you very well? You end up with a less-than-optimal solution that serves short-term needs, not long-term vision.

The quality of your relationship with your developer directly affects your solution and success. Save yourself time and headaches by building a partnership that will last for years, not months.

Like any good BFF, your custom software developer should know your biggest wins, biggest problems and cheer you on toward your long-term goals.

Ask yourself…

  • Do they listen and propose solutions that acutely solve your biggest issues as a company?
  • Do they know your long-term goals and are they a part of your strategic planning?
  • Do they understand how your company’s pain points fit into the larger picture of your systems and business goals?
  • Do they promise solutions that are cheap and fast or solutions that will last and transform?
  • Do they honestly share the best solution, even if they’re not a fit to build or execute it?

If so, they might just be a friend for life.

At CSG we’ve seen that effective partnership saves our clients valuable communication time, creates more effective solutions, and allows them to manage people less and focus on creating desired outcomes more.
