Many local businesses are held back by repetitive, manual tasks that drain employee productivity and lead to costly human error. I utilize Python to build custom scripts and internal tools that automate these workflows.
From syncing inventory across platforms to generating complex financial reports. By letting the code handle the busywork, you free up your team to focus on high-level growth and serving your local customers.
I can do this for websites via Python, or other languages. For websites, that’s known as full stack web development, along with whatever custom JavaScript it may need. Or, I can do some basic software development that’s only meant to run on your computer, all with Python, or other languages.
In a competitive market like the Chicago area, making decisions based on gut feeling isn't enough; you need hard data. I can develop Python-based data solutions that aggregate information from your various business tools, and present it in a clear, actionable format that makes sense to you.
This allows you to identify trends, optimize your spending, and understand your customers' behavior with a level of precision usually reserved for giant corporations. This will help you make targeted, proper decisions to determine the best path to grow your brand through proper marketing, and video production, as most brands require those to gain the trust of their customers.
The fear of outgrowing your software is a major concern for expanding businesses. Python is the backbone of some of the world’s largest platforms because of its incredible stability and "batteries-included" security features.
I build robust backend systems that are designed to handle your current traffic with ease while providing a clear, scalable path for your future expansion.
One of the most common frustrations for business owners is having various software that won't talk to each other. I specialize in using Python to build or connect custom "bridges" (APIs) between your different platforms, ensuring that your CRM, accounting software, and website operate as one cohesive ecosystem.
This eliminates data fragmentation and ensures that your business information is consistent and up-to-date across all channels.
IMPORTANT: everything below is subject to payments being made on time, and prompt communication. We will establish those details once we come to an agreement. Also, here is a recent video of me, for a site where I sell kefir grains, in case we meet in person for any of this.
Contract vs. Email: everything is subject to your project requirements, but HUGE projects usually require a small contract in plain English. A typical contract for a large project is about 2-5 pages, but small projects like a basic website can be done through an agreement by email (no fancy contract). It all depends on what you want, but you must pay in milestones as I describe below. Also, if something is NOT in our agreement (via contract or email), then it isn't included in my services. So be clear with what you need, because I only charge based on the specific services you ask for. Anything beyond that may increase the price (though if it's super small and within the scope anyway, I'm probably okay without increasing the price).
Payment milestones: there are usually 2-3 milestones where you pay. They're usually done in 1/2's or 1/3's of the total project price: first to start, second on first draft, and third upon completing everything in our agreement.
Payment types: I accept Cash in USD, Zelle, Credit, Debit, Check, Money Order, Cryptocurrency, Gold, and Silver.
Discounts: you get 5% off if you pay with Cash, Gold, or Silver. All others are 5% more. If you want the discount, we'll meet at a local library room or something similar, and I'll give you a receipt as proof of payment. Although if you do Gold or Silver, I will want to test them first in front of you via sound, weight, and shape.
Time to start: physical payment methods also get me to start the project immediately. Anything else may have a hold until the payment clears (usually 3-7 days).
Time to complete: subject to your project requirements. You will get this in our agreement.
