Thank you for your invitation.
I realized many projects based on or including CRMs, and I learnt that each new project is new story, as each client has different workflow, a different approach to customers, different expectations from what a piece of software should do and a different style. You probably think the same, since you are looking for a custom solution instead of committing to a off the shelf software package.
I would like to know about you and your business to be able to write a more complete bid, including my thoughts about how the CRM could be built, a more precise time estimate and a precise quote.
I'm thus ready to talk or exchange information any time before you choose your freelancer.
About me: I have a 17 years experience as a freelance Filemaker developer. I realized custom applications for small and medium companies aimed at managing an wide range of different activities. I can provide samples of my work, if you desire.
I use to work alone, but in close contact with my client before a projects starts, during its development and after it is completed. My effort is to provide a clean and simple interface that let users concentrate on their 'real' work and not on figuring out how the software works. The applications that I realize are 'open' for the client, enabling future developments by anyone.
Best regards
Alessandro Barattieri
