From startup to success (the different story)
This is a story about startups. A different story. A story about all you startup founders. AppSumo, Fab.com, Klout, Branchout, Staff.com. What do they have in common except they are all success stories? Being the same as you – passionate, hard-working, risk takers, they also struggled finding good tech people locally, raising more money and generating new leads. The common is that they all either have hired people who work virtually from home, outsource or nearshore their development. Here you – the startup founder- will say “NO WAY. But AppSumo, Fab.com, Klout, Branchout, Staff.com also had the same concerns as you about intellectual property, quality control, focus, communication, tech competence, visibility and agility impediment. However, they also experienced the benefits such as increased efficiency & quality, access to great tech people, faster product release, decreased costs, risk hedging and improved competitive agility. We at Dreamix can answer your concerns. Bulgaria is an EU member which means common laws and practices, and protection for intellectual theft and fraud.
