I just got backfrom meeting with our software/computer guy and I am frustrated. He wants $4,000- $4,500 to write what we are looking for. It is not cost effective for us to do this now on the surface, but having these systems in place would allow us to potentially grow faster- thus it would pay for itself a lot sooner. He is willing to do flexible payments ($100/wk) but still it would eat most of our cash flow from our budding business. What to do? ...I do think his price is fair as we are asking him to automate a process that has a lot of variables. What would you do and why? I keep trying to focus on how we can afford this, as I think that may be a better question to ask. When my partner and I ask that question, we come up with the idea of trading nights at the cabins for time. The guy said he'd be willing to accept 7 nights- that's it. Any thoughts on how to make this work?
