Scoping: The first & most crucial task on a project w/Tonya Aiossa

For a lot of developers, project scoping is one of the great mysteries of the Bubbleverse. How does it work? What does it look like? What do you do with your scope, once you’re done? And — importantly — how do you get paid for the big chunk of time it takes to do it? There’s no instruction manual for this process, even though it is a massively important step in a project. Today’s guest, Tonya Aiossa, is a master at not only executing the scoping process, but also communicating the value of it to clients.  Find Tonya at: * https://pronocoders.com/ [https://pronocoders.com/]  * https://x.com/ProNoCoders [https://x.com/ProNoCoders]  --- This episode is a part of a content series for a new event... 🩵 Find-a-Dev Day A "speed-dating" event connecting Bubble Developers and clients who want to hire them.

Is freelancing actually for you? w/Jon Melo

There’s an idea that freelancing means freedom. But sometimes it’s just not for you.
