I offer four kinds of help: building a website, automating tasks, supporting a project, or providing a ready-made tool. Depending on your situation, one of them is a better starting point than the others. Here is how to find yours.
| Your situation | Good starting point |
|---|---|
| You have no website, or it no longer represents you | Website creation |
| You lose time on repetitive tasks (files, data entry, exports) | Workflow automation |
| Your need is unclear, or several people disagree | Project support |
| You want to follow and improve your Google visibility | Articles on search visibility |
| Your need is common and simple | A first exchange by email to see whether a simple tool or script is enough |
If you have no website
Start by defining what the site must allow: introduce yourself, receive enquiries, sell. This guides the choice between WordPress and custom development (the criteria).
If you are losing time
Note the repetitive tasks and how often they happen. Part of them can be handled with a ready-made tool, the rest with a suitable automation (five telltale signs).
If your need is unclear
This is the most common case, and the best moment to pause: a short scoping prevents building the wrong thing. See the importance of specifications.
Combine in the right order
The most successful projects often follow the same sequence: scope the need, deliver in validated steps, then measure what was achieved, with indicators chosen from the start (choosing indicators).
Each service is delivered under an obligation of means, after a quote. The process is detailed in how I work.
