Hello folks,
This is rather a continuation of the Query emails I sent a few days back.
Looking over the responses prompts me to ask this -
If most of my commerce will involve commercial software users shouldn't
I really expect to expend more effort/money reaching out to commercial
software users versys FOSS users - shouldn't I?
Let's take as a given:
Reading/posting to OO.o only mailing lists, forums, blogs. In other
words generally active in the extended OO.o community.
Participation within a broader selection of FOSS projects. Those
projects which I would expect to also use in offer ing services.
OK - but I'm thinking at this moment of the question - Is that alone
going to get me to the largest numbers of perspective clients?
Leading back to my first question then - Where should I be putting my
personal capital of time and money to reach those individuals/firms
looking to engage someone doing my type of business? (Type of business:
Support in conversting from MSO to OO.o - Custom development of office
automation processes for SOHO/SMB.)
I have a few ideas on this, but before putting mine up could I ask what
others think about this.
1) Am I thinking clearly here, or am I just 'wrong headed'.
2) What channels are people looking towards to get out the message - to
the commercial software user world?
Thanks
Drew
