What to ask

Five questions

01
Who is actually doing the work?
Ask to meet them, not the salesperson.
02
What happens when it launches?
A project that ends at launch leaves you with an orphan.
03
Do I get the source and the accounts?
If the answer is complicated, walk.
04
What is out of scope?
A proposal that lists only inclusions is half a proposal.
05
Can I speak to someone you worked with?
Not a logo wall. A phone number.
02 / 05
Warning signs

Walk away when

The quote arrives before anyone asked what you need
Nobody wants to talk about hosting or support
The portfolio is all homepages and no inside pages
The timeline has no phases in it
You cannot get a straight answer on who owns the code
