Business Philosophy? - The basis for my business, no matter what the project, is a satisfied and happy customer. Other than getting the business side of things tied down I also believe in a healthy relationship with clients so that the project (which most of the time will require a lot of interaction with the client) can be easier implemented and accomplished in a faster paced, low stress timeframe. The happy and satisfied customer, plus a healthy, dedicated, communicative, and low stress business relationship with that customer will result in the best product possible. I stand firmly on these beliefs and base all of my projects on that basis.
