But we've all seen the consequences on numerous great software products. You know, you grow to love something, then it is ruined by these professional marketers and managers. These people can't make good software, that's been proven. Only FREE developers make good software. That's because they care more about the code than the bottom line.
Well, I'm not selling out. Now, that may make me a fool and jeopardize my personal wealth, but it 'feels' right. I develop my software because it is my contribution to society, and an extension of me. I am not going to hand over control to anyone else, as they simply won't care as much (by default, no matter who the person/organization).
So, here's to hoping and praying Bitsum Technologies continues to remain profitable. I'll, at least, have low overhead staying a one man show. At some point I do need to develop more business alliances, which I've been working on, to help market the software in other countries. After all, I can't speak anything but English, so can't provide adequate support to non-English speaking customers.
At present our proud partners are:
- NetTool, Japanese translator and reseller
- dadagoo, inc., German, Swiss, and Austrian translator and reseller
- Volker Imre, Commercial German Sales
- All the individual level translators that have stepped up to the plate
- Join the list by emailing us - We need more partners to offload my work without signing my soul away! It may not make you rich, but it might be a fun endeavor.. and who knows what the future holds.
To those waiting for me to finish our relationship; I'm sorry and please be patient. Business development is yet another full time job that I must take on myself ;o. Please do not hesitate to remind me if you've not heard from me on any outstanding issue.
