Hi everyone, this is my first post on this forum although I’ve been lurking around for a long time.
I’ve been working a 9-5 job at a digital agency for 3 years. I’m still working at the same company, I didn’t quit, but I want to take a leap and grow a pair of wings on the way. For that reason I have talked to some of my friends who are experienced in web design & SEO about starting our own thing. My team are from Turkey, where the cost of labor is pretty cheap. In Turkey, because of the bad economy, landing clients is a bit more difficult than it is in most other countries. People are not interested in paying the developers what their work deserves. And a website worth 5k$ can be done for 5k Turkish liras, or even cheaper. And that would make about 900$, which is nothing in terms of price & performance evaluation. Because that money is more than enough to hire the most talented people this country has to offer, and believe me we have quite a lot of talent. Therefore we have decided to seek for outsourced jobs from the European and American digital agencies, which I hope will be a win-win situation for both parties.
For the moment I’m hoping to collect enough progress on this journey to make the follow-up post here.
Wish us good luck!
