A company’s website should reflect their personal branding and contain messaging targeted toward their intended audiences. Getting this just right can be a daunting task. With more and more people accessing the internet, it is important to ensure your business has a well-kept website that truly mirrors the message you are wanting consumers to receive. To avoid mishaps or loose-ends, many companies outsource their website design and development to ensure that a professional and capable partner can meet all their requirements. When architecting and building a web presence, the overall success and professionalism is a direct function of the capabilities and experience of your technology partner. At the other end of the spectrum, having a poorly made website can damage a company’s credibility and confuse prospects and customers. It is important to trust and have a sufficient understanding of your technology partner for this reason.
When the time comes for your company to hire a web partner, it is important to do thorough research on those you are considering. Verify their capabilities by asking questions relevant to you and your project; ask about their prices, take a look at the company’s website, look at their previous clients as well as their websites, and ask for relevant references. Before you commit to one team you want to be sure they are the best fit for your company, so don’t be afraid to ask questions and demand examples. Also, assess the “cultural” fit of the organization and their communication mechanisms, frequency, etc. to make certain the partner you choose represents your company well.
At V-Soft Consulting, we like to partner with clients that value an open and transparent relationship. Our daily, short “Scrum” calls are open to customers and we have very wide participation from our clients. Even though there are frequently a large number of individuals involved globally in a project at any given time, our customers are provided with a single point of contact, a member of our Louisville, Kentucky based Project Management staff. With a well-developed yet flexible process, our Project Managers bring and foster a culture of openness and trust as we find this critical to managing projects and keeping everyone on the team aligned.
Regarding capabilities, V-Soft relishes a full-time staff of professionals across a number of offices in the U.S. as well as our development center in India, which we fully own and manage. This, coupled with our recruiting business team, gives us access and visibility into the best and brightest technical resources on the market. Our ability to very quickly ramp up a team, even if it requires assembling additional staff to assist, is a key market differentiator for us.
Even after a project is complete, we have engagement models and options for ongoing maintenance as well as feature development support. These can be very flexibly and cost effectively structured, and can be quickly ramped up and down as market dynamics and customer needs evolve.
Websites are a commodity in this day and age, therefore it is important to trust and wholeheartedly accept your website partner’s company dynamic. V-Soft has an array of capabilities to make all website projects we prepare customized for each and every customer we obtain. If you are needing a website revamp, or even a complete redesign, look no further than V-Soft Consulting.
