Swiftscan maybe the solution! They are still not well in the organizing segment,but seems to do the job on the digitizing part at least. I'll check,thanks a lot for making me aware.
Google seeing it is also not my concern, my main problem is that it is not user friendly. I have to organize things as albums and have a structure in place to be able to find them back easily. This structure is implicit, so I have to talk to my SO everytime I have to change something and/or reeducate her.
This is a great system, I have something similar on OneDrive. But it is still a hell even for me, let alone my SO who's not a geek.
It works OK for archiving - if you really won't ever need it often, like flood insurance etc. and for those I don't complain at all. However i do have items I access frequently: i.e: Tickets, passes etc. I also wouldn't mind paying an app for reminders (fines, event dates, appliance warranty expiration -or even maintenance checks, ...)
I don't have OCR for free with Onedrive but I'll look if that's indeed a difference, I could move to GCloud. But then again, I'm stuck with my nerdy setup (no offense, I love it :) )
Hi, an independent contractor who helps others to become independent too. Congratulations on this life changing journey, a difficult decision to make.
Before COVID when I was more active I wrote a comprehensive free guide on this. It's titled for project managers but it really applies to a lot of independent consultants. Here's the link: https://iqoach.com/ultimate-guide-to-becoming-a-well-paid-in...
I tried to distill my experiences from myself and my clients, hope you find it useful.
He has no legitimate concern. You have already come down to a very fair percentage, IMHO. 10% with no protection is fair, his will to throw you off the company with a very low evaluation is opportunistic.
Serious investors will look at the potential of the company and the potential of their return, the amount of time another shareholder spends is secondary to it.
It will make indeed their lives not only easier but also will let them find more clients, and for clients more coaches.
But on the other hand without the users the value of the platform is next to nothing.
That's why in the MVP I have developed all the social features that are commonly available - A professional profile (linkedin) live chat and messaging, notifications (facebook) and groups for forum chat.
My aim was to develop a community first to whom I can sell the further services much easier.
On the other hand the interviewing company should avoid such situations too because of the information secrecy - unless they are mandating an NDA with each and every candidate.
When they are very small you would like to look at platforms who provide the least coding and the most plug & play capability. There are a bunch out there I won't go into the detail, so long story short this should be WordPress + PHP.
There are tons of tutorials and zillions of free plugins, resources etc. If somebody has not done what you are trying to do may be it shouldn't exist in the first place :)
With your C knowledge you wont be alienated to PHP.
If you want one of them go big and provide a solid base for that, and grow the company, hire somebody else to do that etc - learn RoR (Ruby on Rails) . It is an intuitive language and you can develop stuff really fast. Plus, it will be easier to find devs if you want to enlarge your project.
Currently the site is completely free and not even launched yet.
The dilemma I am having is to continue implementing features to charge for vs. launching it as it is and seeing what happens, what user feedbacks are - and then develop those services.
