Simplicity Rules

Adam DuVander on keeping it simple

  • About Adam

Web developers are natural entrepreneurs

December 2, 2005 by Adam DuVander

Three reasons why web developers are natural entrepreneurs:

  1. Web developers and entrepreneurs focus on specific criteria and ignore impulses to do otherwise. Avoiding feature creep is marketing to your niche.
  2. They both can think like a customer. “For what will someone pay me?” asks the marketer. “What did a visitor come here to do?” asks the web developer.
  3. And both are able to think ahead to all possible outcomes… and plan for them. Programmers use logic to chase down bugs in software. Entrepreneurs are ready for “unforeseen circumstances.”
