What's your favorite quote?
- When you hire a freelance developer, it’s important to note you’re hiring one person.
- Hourly pricing results in more frequent conversations about money...it can quickly turn relationships sour.
- ...it’s very important you understand what pricing model you’re “getting into.”
- For the sake of your app (not to mention your sanity), it’s crucial you trust whomever you contract.
- ...you need to let the developers do what you hired them to do—namely, design and deliver an incredible piece of software.
- While the product should stay a priority, there are other areas that need your attention too.
#1 tip over the many years i've used contractors: ask a fuckton of questions.
if you're EVER confused or unsure of EXACTLY what's being delivered when and at what cost... you need to ASK QUESTIONS.
this will save you ton of time and countless sleepless nights.
Totally agree, questions are everything you need on the 1st stage with your contractor

i've learned the hard way!
Can't agree more!
