Software Consulting for small businesses local to Metro Atlanta

Donating up to 200 annual hours, total, towards one-on-one software development consultations for aspiring business owners, assisting them in navigating the technology and software aspects of their businesses.

Why?

 

If you could do something for free, what would it be? For us, we choose to give back to our community by finding ways to use our expertise to assist local small businesses. Why? Sometimes, navigating the technical landscape needed to launch a project can be difficult. This can be one of the biggest blockers people face in getting to the next stage of their project.

Where’s the catch? There’s no catch, but as more small businesses launch their innovative tech ideas, there may be more need for software development services, such as those we provide.

Please note that due to limited office hours, only a select number of application entries will be chosen for free consultations, and each consultation will run for a limited amount of time.

What can I get help with?

 

This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. However, the main area we want to focus on is strategy.

 

What may be considered strategy?

 

  • cultivating your product roadmap
  • understanding what your absolute-must-haves are versus your nice-to-haves
  • formulating what your MVP (minimum viable product) will look like
  • Discovering what pre-existing tools may be useful for your goals
  • ETC.

Note that we’re not developing any software for you. Though, we can help you understand what the software development process may look like from our perspective.
