so how do you start a tech company or a software company
without you know coding skills is it possible
it is kind of okay we can do it so pretty much
whenever you have a software company idea pretty much usually it means
you want to start let's say a sas business meaning software or service
business or you want to create a tool or you might
want to create a wordpress theme or plugins or add-ons
or shopify add-ons and things like that right so how do you go about it so
the first thing is to come up with an idea now i won't discuss too much
at this time you should have a good idea on what you want to create now
next up is you want to create something called documentation now
pretty much a documentation a real documentation
might look a little complicated right because pretty much documentation tells
you what what is what is that you're
creating and it also tells you you know what should people see whenever
they're using your software that's pretty much the idea
of a documentation now can you do you have to be an
expert on a documentation not really so pretty much
you probably have a documentation so documentation
is just type out what are you expecting out of a developer okay let me show you
that so i'm going to show you that really easy
way to do it so for example okay so i'm gonna go at the bottom pretty
much so pretty much i keep i pretty much go
ahead and just you know give people and give somebody an example i want
something like this i give example of my competitors
i tell people to add like do this do this do that
do that it's a war it's a it's a you know it's a uh it's a dropbox document
that has like one two three four ui should look like this you
are so i'm pretty much giving out ideas right
typing up what should happen whenever people click on the login button
how should the payments work it's pretty much put it into
a document now once you do have that next up is to pretty much go ahead and
hire somebody now the way you do that is you can go to upwork.com or
freelancer.com i recommend up work but freelancer is
also pretty good okay now once you go ahead and post that
documentation in you're gonna start getting bids now the
first thing that i want you to do is number one number one is you need to
pretty much have an interview so pretty much don't hire the first
first or second or third person that you speak to first go and have a
conversation right and you should ask them you know ask
them to show some demos of softwares that they have built in the
past and you know just go ahead and investigate more
and make sure to check the reviews right make sure they can do the job
now once you go ahead and figure out okay this is the person
you also want to do something called milestones pretty much
milestones means that you want to break up the work
in like seven pieces and divide the money into seven pieces never
ever i would not uh depo people are like oh you're gonna deposit 50
that's don't do that you will get you'll get scammed okay
not always but most likely okay keep that in mind
also if you are if you don't have a brown skin color
trust me trust me you are people are out there
to get you okay i'll tell you that right now because the software industry
programming industry is pretty much it's it's with people that look something
like me right brown people from like you know india
pakistan and you know there are people from other countries as well but
usually you will see brown people on upwork and freelancer
offering you the best deals and you do want to take those deals
but you also want to make sure that you negotiate your way
for example let's say they say okay it's going to cost you 5k
don't agree okay haggle up and down haggle so pretty much if they say 5k
offer a start off with like you know 2k it doesn't hurt okay you can always go
up 2k is a low ball but still okay it's
always easy to go up but you can't go back right it's hard
so for that reason you know you know just just do
if they say 5k just drop like 50 percent up then negotiate okay then negotiate
because these people can get the job done for
you but they're expecting you know like a usp and if you're hiring
remotely then you know doesn't make any
difference so keep that in mind or the other option is to find somebody
here in the us or your country which might be much much expensive for
example let's say i was building a wordpress plugin right
normally here in the us it would cost me at least couple grand right
and if i had somebody on up work i'm gonna get the job done for 200 bucks
that's it that's all i need now keep in mind that you do
have to sometimes and sometimes right sometimes even if it's cheap
then in that case you you keep in mind that
the work might not be as good that's where your documentation comes in to
make sure you outline exactly what you want and
how you want it make sure to check people's review
and how did they perform and asked to if you're spending a lot of money like 10
15 k plus i would ask to speak to like a
previous client or things like that okay always make
sure to check their work let's move on so once you i have started
working with them you're on the milestone what you want to
do is for example okay this is one of my projects i'm working on right so
uh let's say they're building the product right your product
you want to go ahead and you know just have a conversation on the documentation
they're going to say done you're going to say there's a problem
you go back and forth on the documentation
itself and that's really really useful because you can always go back and check
what was expected out of them and did they do it and did they do it correctly
yeah so that's the overview of you know how to start a software company
without being so techy or a programmer now
