1 Domain Expert
The first
person I manage to come in contact would be my uncle Hector from Spain. He been
working over 20 year as manager for software company. He used to naval officer
in Venezuela and had graduate as software engineering, before he switch to a
more managerial job I came to contact with him through a Skype call. He is a
general manager for a software company. At such I count him in as domain expert,
due to him working in the general field business manager who specialized in
software programming. The call was mainly to ask him how goes around making business
deal. How much travel is required doing business internationally for his
software company. How does the company go around recruiting people and how are
they being train for the job? This question was done to get information on how
a software company should generally be run. This contact
2 Market
Expert
The second
person I manage to come in contact was an employee for company that manage app
that have been label as productivity app. Thus, hoping to come in contact with
someone who is an expert on my market This was done through use of contact option
to ask for possible interview how they operate their business. Most didn’t respond,
but one employee from those company did reply. A why I did not get any
information from any employee responsible with management of the app. The person
took pity, an while they did tell me bit on how to manage PR and deal with
customer support regarding technical problem their app user they might have. As
that what they specialized in. This contact is not particular strong and did
not provide much information regarding my market. But does provide opportunity to
get good pr hire for company once my app finally launches. An did give me
information on how to manage my app general
3 Industry Supplier
Third person
Betfred is a neighbor of mine who work as freelance software programmer. I pick
him as a supplier contact for this assignment, He had amicable relationship with
my parent, as his family has invited us to his house party that he holds a lot
in his house. Their family is very social having many friends, at such getting
a interview with him was not too hard. I mainly ask thing from a business perspective.
At such I ask thing like how much would be the app I desired could cost with the
feature I want. Sadly, I could not get estimate, as he said he need a lot more
information and what type of software engine to give those estimates. He did
give me information on the average wage per hour for software programmer that
does app. He told how get hired for a job and were too looked to hire a
software programmer. In general, this contact gave me access to some
information for how much money would be needed to invest project. Also, this
contact would allow me, when I progress my business idea have someone to hire
or ask assistance in making sure I not getting scammed in term of payment for
freelance software engineer
Overall, I
had a lot of difficult getting people specifically related my field to give assistance.
Still I was please to have been able to make some contact regarding my business
idea. For the second one I did not get much information, but it shows sending a
lot of email will provide some progress and result. At such trying to contact
people should be attempted, if there is not contact. Lastly this show me business
idea should be based on your contact circle, as if my idea were more medical
based. As do to my father mother and older sister working on medical field means
that if my idea needed people in that field. I could get them to introduce me
to their coworker or bosses for interview. As I have met them before, this will
give a much stronger contact circle for that type of business idea more easily.
Compare to contact circle for my business email that involve having to have
contact through email to contact a stranger to met one of my contact goals.
Still thing rarely start from zero and feel like the contact I made serve a
solid foundation to met more to help with my business idea.
