All good points. I also have the experience of a client leaving, twice, and using overseas developers, only to come back asking me to bail him out.
I tend to overdeliver, which is not ideal, frankly. But the developers people find overseas are sometimes prone to promise a lot and not follow through. Not all, but it's common.
So that's my edge so far, though it's painful to work myself into the ground all the time.
hey, your advice isn't wrong but I subscribe to this substack for your SEO and Reddit advice - I own an E-commerce company moving 8 figures/year top line so this kind of stuff doen't apply to me at all :)
For a large(r) brand owner, Reddit is a nightmare to handle at scale, especially because it's such a hellhole of trash/loser speak. I appreciate your posts on that.
Yep, it's tough to deal with. Also you have to actually understand the platform, so it's almost impossible to train someone else to do it unless they are already extremely familiar with Reddit
