We just recently had a phone meeting with a potential client about their need for a new website. one of our newest clients. You see they knew that they need to get a website and have tried various times. Yet they were very leery about the whole process. This is because of some extremely bad experiences they have had. The biggest challenge that this company faces with their new website project is LOCKIN!
There are some website and technology related companies that lock onto a vital part of your business. They then use their knowledge as a weapon to take complete control of that area. The challenge in all of this is that you may not know enough about the particular technology to understand that you are being locked in. It is due time to shed some light on this dark subject. :)
