The easiest thing we did when we needed to scale was to work with a number of other web dev shops. Some were 1 man operations and others slightly larger. Not only did this help us grow, but we also made additional revenue when they passed

Continue to work on it if your approach differs. There are not unique ideas but it depends on who executes it better.

If you are already in an apt then the need for an office space is minimal. But if getting an office space will improve productivity then when you get the $80k. In NC we have an 1100 sq ft office space to work closer together and pay $750

If you need an office because you can't live together or if there are few team members and it would be more productive to work in the same room you can get an inexpensive office for less than 4 people for a few hundred dollars a month.

Are the emails targeted toward the tech community or avg consumers? Consumers think IMHO HTML emails are pretty. The tech community would think plain text is better. It all depends on that majority target audience.

Mattresses may be marketed for a long life span but they rarely last that long. I've had a queen size $3k mattress that lasted 8 years. Bought a $1.5k replacement that lasted 1.25 years before it had noticeable body impressions. Matt

As everyone seems to agree, you're being contracted to build a web app for the client. The business model and marketing behind it, is essentially his challenge. > I'm not sure that in all good conscience I can take on a projec

I've done this before. I think sleeping allowed my brain to figure out a solution that I had struggled with for hours under pressure while awake. I can only recall this happening twice.

I was in a similar situation. For me the best time to push code into production was late night (between 1-2am). And with kids, I was still getting up 6:30am. Even on the weekends when I try to stay away from computers, I usually couldn&#

When I was wide-eyed, I built a lot of webapps that never saw the light of day -- various forms of social networks for niche groups. They were poorly written (saw some source code a few months and I nearly cringed) and I failed to do any m

For some reason I cannot work in silence especially when writing code. I tend to listen to rock, rap, drum and bass, dub step. Anything loud. Headphones on. Anything with a high bpm tends to help me.

Mistakes and failures will ultimately make you a better person. Learn to identify them and find solutions. Everyone has probably made them at some point.

You can be a mediocre programmer and do great things. You can be a great programmer and not achieve the success relative to your level. It's all completely relative. I'm an ok-to-decent programmer and turned a sizeable profit o

As a subcontractor / freelancer (and I'm not a lawyer), you owe them the code they have actually paid for based on the time you've worked. While it may be illegal to withhold all of the source code, it is not if you retain t

Depends. It can be done by one first. Typically plugins don't modify theme/design, so nothing will need to be done when you add new plugins. If you need help, let me know.
