DELIVERY DATE OF End of Month, April. No slippage is possible in timeline. The communication between the developer and owner must be bi-directional. Please read this post to the end. I want to assure we are well aligned in our engagement.
As the owner of the site, I will assure you will have the tools necessary to develop, the space to do so (I will not badger you), the detail / communication to eliminate confusion or uncertainty, and my respect in your proving to be a partner in kicking off the business. This is not going to be an hourly pay rate engagement but rather delivery based pay engagement.
I expect commitment to the objectives; clear communication in progress, plans, blockers, and solutions; focus on the go-live date; daily progress of prioritized deliveries (this is a must); and an interest in the sites completion equal to personal compensation. I will provide a significant bonus for someone who delivers whilst respecting a balance of project interest and personal interest. I will take care of you (and hopefully build a working relationship for future WebMaster activities) if you take care of me. Upon completion of this requisition, we will negotiate a continued working relationship which can convert to an hourly rate.
Need a ‘take charge’ developer to build out a full-service oriented site inclusive of integrations with Zapier, BookingKoala, CRM, GoogleAds Local, and possibly click funnels. This would be a bottom-up build of the site with requirements already defined.
The backlog and sprints have been defined and need the developer to review the backlog and sprint commitments to agree to the expectation and provide feedback on feasibility.
Engagement will include daily Agile Scrum stand-ups whereby daily activity will be communicated such as: What was accomplished, yesterday; what are we working on, today; are there any blockers. Weekly demos between the developer and the owner should occur to review deliveries achieved for testing purposes to secure a continuous feedback loop. A staging site and a primary will ring fence dev work in sandbox in which promotion only occurs upon testing acceptance.
Roadmap is to have a fully functional website built with advanced / complex workflows in less than a month. Roadmap currently defined but needs approval of developer. E.g. Timeline for the skeleton delivery is two-weeks (for stage 1 and part of stage 2). Stage 1 currently is defined as the buildout of the site skeleton with basic functionality. Stage 2 will be to incorporate advanced functionality, workflows, add ons, and third party technologies. Additionally, a client / staff portal skeleton. Stage 3 should be a production testing cycle of Main, Client, and Staff sections where minor tweaks and enhancements are delivered. Additionally, the site needs to be SEO ready w/ analytics and reporting for stage 3. A backlog exists which has been built taking into account stages.
Technology competencies in the following: WordPress, Elementor, BookingKoala, GravityForms, TrustIndex, ClickCease, Yoast, RocketBrowser, WP-Rocket, JSStripe, Zapier, OptInMonster, ClickFunnels. It is not essential to be a master of all tech but rather have the disposition to either learn at fast pace or advise as to alternatives w/ substantiating benefits.
The developer must be able to deliver on a tight deadline with constant communication / attention to the go-live objectives. Issue, risk, feedback, and creative visioning communication should be raised by developer along the development cycle to inform the possibility of long term webmaster needs.
The developer should possess a confidence to clearly communicate timeline issue informing the possibility of supplementing with gap’d expertise.
A bit about myself: I am a person of deep faith who is looking to build this business for the people in my community. As a person of faith, community is the base of the Body of Christ. Without a strong community anchored in faith, the Body of Christ is weak. I am respectful, understanding, and accommodating. I want to build a team to carry this business into the future for many years to come. Additionally, this business is just the tip of the iceberg. If the senior developer being sought blends well with values and objectives, we will have many more startups to standup.
