Software development
from:Deb St. George, Publisher, GettingToSuccess.com
Being an online marketer is probably the best job in the world. The money, the hours,
And the ability to work or live virtually anywhere you can get an internet connection. There are so many advantages to this online marketing lifestyle, I just don’t have space to write about it in this article.
In fact, today oddly, I have picked up my pen to talk to you about “hard” side of marketing and how you can overcome it, help other people overcome it and how to make tons of money doing it.
The proof lies in the machine in front of you now, and the software you are using to read this article.
The laptop, desk set or hand held device that you are reading this from and the software it utilizes are in fact simply a solution to a problem. In this case the way to share text across the world.
I don’t know what system or software you are using but rest assured it made some software development person a lot of money.
What happens when you create a solution to an existing problem?
People that have the same problem will give you money to help them solve it. The bigger the problem or the more people you can help the more money you make.
So let’s get back to the “hard” side of marketing shall we?
Think about something you do as a marketer everyday or at least for excruciating long period of time that you just don’t like to do, something boring tedious and time consuming.
It does not mater how complicated it seems because as I like to say, “As long as you can complain about it you can explain about it.”
Now, if you can indeed put into word your problem and how in your wildest dreams this could be fixed. Then you are on your way to being an awesome software developer.
Don’t get caught up in thinking what you do now and want the software to do in the future is too complicated to be done by a computer. Don’t flatter yourself that way. That is old school thinking and there are a lots and I mean lots of people shell shocked, out of a job and out on there ears because they thought the same thing.
The new economy is based on innovation.
That’s why software development is such a hot area to market.
Let’s get back to your dream the dream of not having to do that aforementioned task ever again.
Now take your dream and find a programmer, and explain it to him/her exactly the way you want it, how you envision it.
How would you like it to work?
What you would have to do to enter it in to the computer and what you’d expect to get as an outcome.
Again don’t be shy lay it all out until the programmer understand exactly what you want.
Keep in mind the sky today has no limits.
I think if I told someone 20 years ago I was going to write a note to a half million people (most of whom live on the other side of the world) and send them out in under 15 seconds and not one of my notes will get lost along the way, they’d either of hung me as liar or fitted me for a white jacket that buckled in the back. But we can and do now and take it for granted every day.
So find a programmer and solve your problem and live your dream then share it with the world and get rich!
If you don’t know where to find a programmer look at websites like rent-a-coder they tend to hang out there waiting for a problem to solve.
