So the game continues.
The company I am sort of working for continue to frustrate me.
At our last meeting the guy basically regurgitated a whole load of ideas, I had suggested in our previous meeting, as if they were his own and then kind of realised who he was talking to before sort of giving me a little bit of credit. Lordy this is going to be hard work.
The biggest hurdle we have with the business seems to be that the boss seems to think his contacts will be enough to provide lots of very well paid government conracts, even though we seen unable to get our own very simple site up and working. It’s not even a bespoke site it’s a program similar to wordpress so any halfwit can get a decent site live in a couple of hours! We as web experts cannot.
When I showed him via a simple google search that two of my hobby websites come up at the top of googles search page and his company website was not even to be seen on the firs ten pages, he did not appear too worried.
It would appear the company that offers SEO services to it’s clients don’t even know what SEO is!
So, why am I agreeing to work with them? Well, he want’s me, he told me so and the derisory amount he offered to pay me showed how much he values me (not!) as an Idea he offered me what I used to earn in two hours as a freelance as a monthly retainer! But, until something better come’s along I will use it to keep me busy and maybe get me some useful connection and of course who knows, maybe it could be a success.
My new boss does not seem to acknowledge his competitors, he did not seem to recognise the companies listed on page one of googles search and some of them looked to have their shit together a hell of a lot more than our lot. I do not know if living in a bubble will help or hinder us.
