Well, hello everyone Welcome to our podcast a

1
00:00:11.200 --> 00:00:14.800
 podcast about the world of ux UI

2
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:18.200
 design and much much more. I'm Diana

3
00:00:17.200 --> 00:00:21.100
 your host for this episode today joining

4
00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:23.800
 me is Carlos viceno. Hi Carlos.

5
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.700
 How are you? Hi, Deanna. How are you? I'm good.

6
00:00:27.700 --> 00:00:30.500
 I'm glad to be here and talk

7
00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:34.000
 to you about UI ux and much more.

8
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:36.400
 Excellent. So Carlos is

9
00:00:36.400 --> 00:00:38.400
 our project manager at cool agency.

10
00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:42.100
We'll know that one of the many tasks of a project

11
00:00:42.100 --> 00:00:45.800
 manager is to bridge the gap between the client and

12
00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:46.400
 the team.

13
00:00:47.100 --> 00:00:50.100
I want to talk a little bit about our Motel.

14
00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:53.200
Look for a new angle.

15
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:58.000
Under this motor, we always face challenges that

16
00:00:57.300 --> 00:01:01.000
 have mastered that we have mastered and

17
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.400
 that have made us grow as a

18
00:01:03.400 --> 00:01:03.600
 team.

19
00:01:04.500 --> 00:01:07.700
Every time there is a challenge to overcome. We

20
00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:10.100
 actually look for a new angle.

21
00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:14.200
Um, that's cool. We specialize in a variety

22
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.300
 of services such as UI ux design

23
00:01:17.300 --> 00:01:20.700
 CMS automations and software.

24
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.500
However from time to time we have clients

25
00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:26.500
 with a very specific need.

26
00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:30.400
Then we have to look for new angles as I

27
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:33.800
 mentioned before and even develop applications that

28
00:01:33.800 --> 00:01:35.400
 meet the needs of the client.

29
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.200
So this is the case of one of the clients that we had

30
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:43.800
 recently where we had to synchronize inventories

31
00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:45.500
 for their food business.

32
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:51.400
So Carlos, my first question is regarding what

33
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:52.500
 the client actually

34
00:01:52.500 --> 00:01:52.900
 does.

35
00:01:53.700 --> 00:01:56.700
So, can you tell me a little bit more about this

36
00:01:56.700 --> 00:01:57.900
 particular client?

37
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.800
Of course happy to tell you about it. So this

38
00:02:02.800 --> 00:02:05.900
 client specifically it's producer and

39
00:02:05.900 --> 00:02:08.500
 distributor of superfoods. They

40
00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:11.200
 produce them. So you

41
00:02:11.200 --> 00:02:14.300
 just mentioned and they pretty much

42
00:02:14.300 --> 00:02:17.300
 have their main distribution point

43
00:02:17.300 --> 00:02:20.400
 it's their Bigcommerce websites.

44
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.800
 In this case. They use this specific e-commerce platform.

45
00:02:24.700 --> 00:02:27.900
tells their wholesale and Retail websites

46
00:02:27.900 --> 00:02:28.400
 and

47
00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:30.300
they wanted to

48
00:02:31.100 --> 00:02:34.300
integrate their two websites

49
00:02:34.300 --> 00:02:35.900
 with their inventory.

50
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.600
Specifically and that's how everything

51
00:02:39.600 --> 00:02:43.700
 that started for us in terms of creating this

52
00:02:43.700 --> 00:02:46.700
 new application or custom application

53
00:02:46.700 --> 00:02:49.300
 for them. I understand. So would you say that was the

54
00:02:49.300 --> 00:02:51.500
 most important aspect of this project?

55
00:02:53.100 --> 00:02:56.900
Yeah, the most important aspect was synchronicity basically

56
00:02:56.900 --> 00:03:01.200
 been able to have this some

57
00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:02.700
 kind of triangle to

58
00:03:02.700 --> 00:03:05.800
 come somehow and it's the

59
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.600
 whole show website the retail website

60
00:03:08.600 --> 00:03:12.600
 and their inventory and those three

61
00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:14.700
 aspects aspects are very important because

62
00:03:16.600 --> 00:03:20.800
During inventory. They use it for not only.

63
00:03:22.900 --> 00:03:25.100
have managed their

64
00:03:25.100 --> 00:03:28.600
 inventory of their final products,

65
00:03:28.600 --> 00:03:29.700
 but also the

66
00:03:30.500 --> 00:03:33.300
They produce their as I

67
00:03:33.300 --> 00:03:36.800
 mentioned, they produce their own superfoods. So the whole production change

68
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:40.100
 it's there on their

69
00:03:39.100 --> 00:03:43.300
 inventory. So whenever they produce new units of

70
00:03:42.300 --> 00:03:45.600
 this items of this

71
00:03:45.600 --> 00:03:45.800
 product.

72
00:03:46.500 --> 00:03:51.600
It's supposed to synchronize with their Bigcommerce

73
00:03:50.600 --> 00:03:53.500
 websites, and that's very

74
00:03:53.500 --> 00:03:53.800
 key.

75
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.600
Because again to do

76
00:03:58.600 --> 00:04:01.400
 it manually a specifically in this case

77
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:03.700
 when they have very vast.

78
00:04:05.100 --> 00:04:08.600
Variety of of catalog of different products.

79
00:04:08.600 --> 00:04:11.100
 It's key for them to to able to

80
00:04:11.100 --> 00:04:14.900
 automate part of the process and to

81
00:04:14.900 --> 00:04:17.400
 do it this way save them

82
00:04:17.400 --> 00:04:18.100
 a lot of time.

83
00:04:19.100 --> 00:04:22.300
And actually helps in the

84
00:04:22.300 --> 00:04:25.100
 lobby in that regard also, they wanted

85
00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:28.400
 to synchronize the create.

86
00:04:30.100 --> 00:04:33.500
Invoices invoices whenever they create that

87
00:04:33.500 --> 00:04:36.700
 they had got a new order on either their whole wholesale or

88
00:04:36.700 --> 00:04:37.700
 retail website.

89
00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:38.700
and

90
00:04:39.700 --> 00:04:41.200
they used to do it manually.

91
00:04:42.200 --> 00:04:45.900
Quote unquote manually exploring the information from becomers and

92
00:04:45.900 --> 00:04:49.600
 uploading it to dear and

93
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:52.400
 now it's with this integration of having the

94
00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:55.800
 synchronicity between both platforms bigcomers.

95
00:04:56.400 --> 00:04:59.600
And dear that's not necessary. It's automated.

96
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:03.000
 So whenever someone orders a

97
00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:05.600
 place and press places on the order on

98
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.200
 either the wholesale or the retail website

99
00:05:08.200 --> 00:05:12.200
 after medically. It's added to

100
00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:14.100
 their sales on.

101
00:05:15.200 --> 00:05:18.700
on their inventory and that all obviously also

102
00:05:18.700 --> 00:05:22.400
 affects the inventory there

103
00:05:21.400 --> 00:05:23.100
 and

104
00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:28.400
Yeah, I think that's pretty much sums up what the

105
00:05:27.400 --> 00:05:31.300
 process was or what are client

106
00:05:30.300 --> 00:05:33.000
 asked for and what we worked on.

107
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:34.700
absolutely, this is

108
00:05:35.300 --> 00:05:39.300
Going to be very important for those who don't know, but can

109
00:05:38.300 --> 00:05:41.500
 you tell me a little bit about the difference

110
00:05:41.500 --> 00:05:44.000
 between deer inventory and big Commerce?

111
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:47.600
Of course both well dear inventory

112
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:50.600
 set platform a third party app that allows

113
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:53.700
 users to be able to work on

114
00:05:53.700 --> 00:05:56.500
 to be able to manage their

115
00:05:56.500 --> 00:05:59.500
 inventory. Mostly that's the main focus. It's a

116
00:05:59.500 --> 00:06:03.400
 very comprehensive comprehensive app with a

117
00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:07.100
 lot of Integrations available for it and very robust

118
00:06:06.100 --> 00:06:09.600
 or while documented API.

119
00:06:10.300 --> 00:06:11.300
so

120
00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:15.400
From deer in that regard. There's a

121
00:06:15.400 --> 00:06:18.300
 lot that you can do and you can integrate with because of that.

122
00:06:19.500 --> 00:06:22.400
but the difference between that or managing the

123
00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:25.500
 inventory and big Commerce becomers is

124
00:06:25.500 --> 00:06:28.500
 a newcomers platform that allows you to host your

125
00:06:28.500 --> 00:06:31.500
 website your e-commerce website

126
00:06:31.500 --> 00:06:35.700
 and pretty much do whatever

127
00:06:34.700 --> 00:06:38.700
 Ecommerce does allows

128
00:06:37.700 --> 00:06:38.700
 you to

129
00:06:39.400 --> 00:06:43.200
a place your products there showcase

130
00:06:42.200 --> 00:06:47.200
 your products allow people to buy them

131
00:06:47.200 --> 00:06:51.000
 online using a different

132
00:06:50.200 --> 00:06:54.100
 kinds of payment platforms or payment gateways

133
00:06:53.100 --> 00:06:54.300
 like

134
00:06:56.400 --> 00:06:59.800
credit cards or PayPal or Apple

135
00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:02.400
 pay Google pay here and else

136
00:07:03.100 --> 00:07:03.400
and

137
00:07:05.300 --> 00:07:08.900
Pretty much. That's the difference. It's an e-comerce platform Bigcommerce

138
00:07:08.900 --> 00:07:11.500
 is an e-commerce platform and the inventory

139
00:07:11.500 --> 00:07:14.100
 is a nap that allows you to

140
00:07:14.100 --> 00:07:15.200
 manage your inventory.

141
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.400
Very nice. Let's talk about another member

142
00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:23.900
 of the team that worked

143
00:07:23.900 --> 00:07:26.700
 on this project Carlos who

144
00:07:26.700 --> 00:07:28.800
 developed the application for the client.

145
00:07:29.700 --> 00:07:32.700
The application was developed by

146
00:07:32.700 --> 00:07:35.500
 Maria from beginning to end.

147
00:07:35.500 --> 00:07:38.800
 She is a great season

148
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.800
 our full stack developer. She's amazing and she

149
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.600
 has a lot a

150
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:48.200
 lot of different projects and

151
00:07:47.200 --> 00:07:51.100
 in her resume that has

152
00:07:50.100 --> 00:07:53.200
 worked for she has worked for

153
00:07:53.200 --> 00:07:57.000
 us in different projects for almost three

154
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:59.800
 years now over three

155
00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:02.500
 years now and it's been

156
00:08:02.500 --> 00:08:05.500
 great to to be able to have her on our team

157
00:08:05.500 --> 00:08:07.700
 and she's very

158
00:08:10.300 --> 00:08:14.200
are not only responsible but also very

159
00:08:13.200 --> 00:08:17.800
 efficient and effective gravel

160
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:21.500
 Communications and it's always

161
00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:24.700
 a pleasure to work with her in any part any project

162
00:08:24.700 --> 00:08:26.600
 that we have it in store.

163
00:08:27.400 --> 00:08:31.000
Absolutely. She has done a great job Indeed

164
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:34.600
 Carlos. What is a API

165
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:36.800
 for integration between the big Commerce

166
00:08:36.800 --> 00:08:38.600
 and the deer inventory platforms?

167
00:08:39.700 --> 00:08:42.800
So we had to create an API to be

168
00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:46.200
 able to manage this integration. It's completely

169
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:48.400
 custom but I'll obviously

170
00:08:48.400 --> 00:08:51.800
 uses it calls to

171
00:08:51.800 --> 00:08:54.600
 tears and becomers apis.

172
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.600
 Both of them are very well documented

173
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:00.300
 and that's super helpful. Whenever you

174
00:09:00.300 --> 00:09:03.500
 have any kind of API integration. It's

175
00:09:03.500 --> 00:09:06.700
 key for us to be able to have the

176
00:09:06.700 --> 00:09:09.500
 recommendation available and some platforms

177
00:09:09.500 --> 00:09:12.200
 do it better than others. But in this case both of

178
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:16.500
 them big Commerce and your inventory have great. It's

179
00:09:15.500 --> 00:09:18.500
 available very easy

180
00:09:18.500 --> 00:09:19.300
 to

181
00:09:20.500 --> 00:09:24.700
to get this information and yeah, but

182
00:09:23.700 --> 00:09:26.300
 we didn't really have

183
00:09:26.300 --> 00:09:29.800
 any questions in regards to how something

184
00:09:29.800 --> 00:09:30.800
 work with and you have to

185
00:09:31.700 --> 00:09:34.900
contact support of any of the platforms or

186
00:09:34.900 --> 00:09:38.300
 anything. We had everything our disposal

187
00:09:37.300 --> 00:09:40.700
 in this case at Maria's disposal

188
00:09:40.700 --> 00:09:43.700
 for for her to to test the how

189
00:09:43.700 --> 00:09:46.200
 the apis work and begin with the work and

190
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:50.200
At the moment no complaints in that

191
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:53.700
 regard. Oh awesome. You know that it doesn't

192
00:09:53.700 --> 00:09:56.700
 really matter. What field you are working in.

193
00:09:57.700 --> 00:10:01.700
Working on something new facing challenges

194
00:10:01.700 --> 00:10:06.100
 new challenges and overcoming them. It's necessary

195
00:10:05.100 --> 00:10:08.300
 because it makes you better

196
00:10:08.300 --> 00:10:11.700
 and it actually enrich you not only as a

197
00:10:11.700 --> 00:10:14.400
 person not only as a member of a team

198
00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:17.400
 but also as a whole unit as an agency,

199
00:10:17.400 --> 00:10:20.500
 so my last question for you would be how do

200
00:10:20.500 --> 00:10:23.900
 you think the experience enriched us as an

201
00:10:23.900 --> 00:10:24.600
 agency overall?

202
00:10:26.100 --> 00:10:29.400
There was an interesting Tech Challenge to work with

203
00:10:29.400 --> 00:10:32.900
 this specific integration because it

204
00:10:32.900 --> 00:10:36.500
 has special requirements one of

205
00:10:36.500 --> 00:10:39.600
 them that I didn't talk about earlier. I forgot

206
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:42.400
 to mention but I'm going to talk about it. Now. It's that

207
00:10:43.900 --> 00:10:47.800
our clients needed to have some kind of cushion of

208
00:10:46.800 --> 00:10:50.400
 inventory like I

209
00:10:49.400 --> 00:10:52.100
 mentioned before that these three.

210
00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:54.600
key aspects or

211
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.000
how do I call them?

212
00:11:00.700 --> 00:11:01.500
well

213
00:11:02.900 --> 00:11:05.000
this specific elements

214
00:11:05.800 --> 00:11:08.200
Are the e-commerce?

215
00:11:08.900 --> 00:11:11.500
Wholesale e-commerce their retail e-commerce

216
00:11:11.500 --> 00:11:15.600
 and tier inventory. These are supposed to be in sync.

217
00:11:16.100 --> 00:11:19.200
And part of that obviously is

218
00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:22.500
 because they want everything

219
00:11:22.500 --> 00:11:25.500
 to work as a unit like if

220
00:11:25.500 --> 00:11:28.300
 someone buys something from the wholesale.

221
00:11:29.800 --> 00:11:33.100
Website then it's supposed to also affect

222
00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:36.000
 the retail website

223
00:11:35.300 --> 00:11:38.200
 as well because they have the root

224
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:41.500
 of everything the where the warehouse where

225
00:11:41.500 --> 00:11:44.500
 they inventory is. It's the same for both websites for

226
00:11:44.500 --> 00:11:46.100
 the wholesale or the retail.

227
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.200
So before he had to be done

228
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:52.300
 manually to have it some kind of synchronizing and

229
00:11:52.300 --> 00:11:53.000
 now it's automatic.

230
00:11:53.900 --> 00:11:57.100
But also it's very important that whenever they

231
00:11:56.100 --> 00:12:00.200
 create a new products or yeah,

232
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:02.300
 whenever they create a new products and it's part

233
00:12:02.300 --> 00:12:05.300
 of their website or they their inventory.

234
00:12:05.300 --> 00:12:08.700
 It's also available on their website without they having

235
00:12:08.700 --> 00:12:13.000
 to do that manually because they have a very a fast

236
00:12:12.500 --> 00:12:15.700
 inventory or different kinds

237
00:12:15.700 --> 00:12:17.500
 of products in their catalog.

238
00:12:18.300 --> 00:12:23.000
With that said they want to have a cushion for their inventory

239
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:25.300
 because you never know whenever you

240
00:12:25.300 --> 00:12:28.400
 have any kind of damage product or anything

241
00:12:28.400 --> 00:12:30.600
 like that and you don't want to oversell.

242
00:12:31.300 --> 00:12:35.400
In that regard and then having an unsatisfied unsatisfied

243
00:12:34.400 --> 00:12:37.800
 client exactly Customer because they

244
00:12:37.800 --> 00:12:39.500
 receive something that wasn't.

245
00:12:41.100 --> 00:12:45.200
a working or or it wasn't high quality

246
00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:47.500
 or the quality they expected

247
00:12:47.500 --> 00:12:50.500
 or they had to get a refund because

248
00:12:50.500 --> 00:12:53.500
 they weren't enough units in

249
00:12:53.500 --> 00:12:54.500
 their inventory to

250
00:12:55.400 --> 00:12:59.100
to satisfy this demand and they always

251
00:12:58.100 --> 00:13:02.300
 wanted to have a cushion. So whenever something the

252
00:13:01.300 --> 00:13:04.700
 synchronized on their same

253
00:13:04.700 --> 00:13:05.000
 inventory.

254
00:13:05.800 --> 00:13:08.300
From dear inventory to the big

255
00:13:08.300 --> 00:13:11.800
 Commerce websites, they have less units. They

256
00:13:11.800 --> 00:13:14.700
 have a cushion. So the they

257
00:13:14.700 --> 00:13:17.600
 always show less units in their inventory and on

258
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.900
 bigcomers compared to what they have on deer to

259
00:13:20.900 --> 00:13:24.000
 make sure that they have this kind of cushion for

260
00:13:23.500 --> 00:13:27.500
 whenever try to know not oursel.

261
00:13:28.300 --> 00:13:31.400
And have to refund clients or have unsatisfied clients

262
00:13:31.400 --> 00:13:32.500
 or customers.

263
00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:37.600
So that's something that that was very important. And so each

264
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:40.600
 of the requirements going back to to your question. I

265
00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:43.100
 didn't forget about it each of

266
00:13:43.100 --> 00:13:47.200
 the personalized and requirements that

267
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:51.100
 we have for the project. It was a challenge itself because we

268
00:13:50.100 --> 00:13:53.500
 have to make something custom to

269
00:13:53.500 --> 00:13:57.200
 satisfy the needs of the client and you seem

270
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:59.400
 to platforms that we were familiar with

271
00:13:59.400 --> 00:14:02.600
 but what we were familiar with Bigcommerce not

272
00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:03.800
 with deer until then.

273
00:14:04.500 --> 00:14:09.100
And we have to get from here race with this platform and get

274
00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:10.600
 as I

275
00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:14.200
 mentioned before we were lucky enough that the API documentation

276
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:16.500
 was pretty clear and available. Yeah

277
00:14:16.500 --> 00:14:17.000
 for us.

278
00:14:17.800 --> 00:14:20.400
but it was a challenge itself because

279
00:14:20.400 --> 00:14:23.200
 it was like making sure that

280
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.200
What is in paper the theory of

281
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:31.200
 the API recommendation, it actually worked that way

282
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:34.400
 and the custom API that we created

283
00:14:34.400 --> 00:14:38.000
 worse works as declining expected

284
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:40.500
 and that they were completely satisfied with

285
00:14:40.500 --> 00:14:44.700
 the results at the end of the day. That's was our main

286
00:14:43.700 --> 00:14:46.500
 Challenge and I'm Maria

287
00:14:46.500 --> 00:14:46.900
 accomplish it.

288
00:14:48.400 --> 00:14:51.500
And she did great in the application

289
00:14:51.500 --> 00:14:53.800
 works amazingly. Yeah and

290
00:14:55.100 --> 00:14:58.100
Yeah, and it's something something else that I

291
00:14:58.100 --> 00:15:03.800
 wanted to mention. It's that obviously there are options like

292
00:15:02.800 --> 00:15:05.200
 just having

293
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:08.300
 a software like Parabola or third party like

294
00:15:08.300 --> 00:15:11.400
 Parabola or zapier or make which

295
00:15:11.400 --> 00:15:13.100
 was integromat in the past.

296
00:15:15.100 --> 00:15:18.300
But in this case for the specifics that the

297
00:15:18.300 --> 00:15:21.400
 client or the specific requirements that the client

298
00:15:21.400 --> 00:15:21.600
 had

299
00:15:23.300 --> 00:15:27.000
It was key that it was something custom and there are other advantages

300
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:29.300
 to having something custom. Obviously there's

301
00:15:29.300 --> 00:15:32.800
 a little bit more of time in terms of my maintenance

302
00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:34.800
 because you don't don't depend on

303
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:38.400
On a third party to to maintain everything

304
00:15:38.400 --> 00:15:39.500
 exactly absolutely.

305
00:15:40.300 --> 00:15:42.700
But there's definitely more control over it.

306
00:15:44.700 --> 00:15:48.200
How everything works it's it's you

307
00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:50.100
 can scale it up. If you

308
00:15:50.100 --> 00:15:53.900
 want to if you want this app or

309
00:15:53.900 --> 00:15:57.100
 specific custom application to grow in the future make

310
00:15:56.100 --> 00:15:59.400
 it to other scenes or synchronize it

311
00:15:59.400 --> 00:16:02.500
 with other platforms or anything like that. It's easier

312
00:16:02.500 --> 00:16:07.600
 to do so now that there's some kind of base or

313
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:08.200
 or

314
00:16:10.900 --> 00:16:13.500
Yeah, I don't know how to call it. There's like.

315
00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.400
The the base of the app or destruct the

316
00:16:20.400 --> 00:16:22.100
 base of the structure of the habits there.

317
00:16:22.800 --> 00:16:23.000
and

318
00:16:24.300 --> 00:16:27.300
that's that's very important and you can scale it

319
00:16:27.300 --> 00:16:30.300
 up you the foundations of the other foundation of the

320
00:16:30.300 --> 00:16:33.500
 app. Yeah. Sorry. Yeah, the foundations of that are

321
00:16:33.500 --> 00:16:36.700
 there the structure of that is there and

322
00:16:36.700 --> 00:16:39.200
 you can scale up in the future if you

323
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:42.600
 want to and you pretty much have complete control

324
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.400
 over it. It's you don't have to pay us.

325
00:16:46.900 --> 00:16:50.000
Monthly subscription that for some of these third-party absolutes

326
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.500
 it can get pretty expensive especially if

327
00:16:52.500 --> 00:16:56.000
 you have something like this which is process as

328
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:58.200
 a process of the process with every single

329
00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:01.200
 sale that you make whenever you

330
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:02.400
 update the inventory.

331
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.500
There's several times especially if you have a lot

332
00:17:06.500 --> 00:17:09.600
 of traffic on your website and well a

333
00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:12.900
 bunch of sales a day. It can get pretty expensive

334
00:17:12.900 --> 00:17:15.300
 whenever you are paying for a

335
00:17:15.300 --> 00:17:18.300
 subscription or to zapier or make or something

336
00:17:18.300 --> 00:17:18.700
 like that.

337
00:17:19.500 --> 00:17:22.600
In this case, you're paying for a server, obviously where the

338
00:17:22.600 --> 00:17:25.700
 app is hosted but it's way

339
00:17:25.700 --> 00:17:28.400
 less expensive like a 10th of what

340
00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:30.300
 you will be paying more or less on.

341
00:17:31.100 --> 00:17:34.500
On zapier or any of the other apps

342
00:17:34.500 --> 00:17:37.400
 which by the way are really useful and we use

343
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:40.600
 them all the time, but for specific cases

344
00:17:40.600 --> 00:17:43.200
 like this one, it was required for

345
00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:47.200
 us to have a custom application. Yeah,

346
00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:49.200
 and it's only beneficial for the client to

347
00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:52.200
 to find ways not to pay.

348
00:17:55.200 --> 00:17:58.200
Oh not too over overflow your budget.

349
00:17:58.200 --> 00:18:01.400
 Okay not to spend more than you are expected

350
00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:05.100
 to spend in your initial

351
00:18:04.100 --> 00:18:08.300
 or your annual budget for

352
00:18:08.300 --> 00:18:11.300
 example Carlos. Thank

353
00:18:11.300 --> 00:18:14.600
 you very much for joining me in this conversation. I

354
00:18:14.600 --> 00:18:17.500
 really hope to talk to you again in the foreseeable future

355
00:18:17.500 --> 00:18:20.100
 talking to you as always

356
00:18:20.100 --> 00:18:23.500
 wonderful. So that's it for today everybody. Thank

357
00:18:23.500 --> 00:18:26.500
 you so much for listening to us and being part

358
00:18:26.500 --> 00:18:29.900
 of these experience. So I will see you next time.

359
00:18:29.900 --> 00:18:32.700
 Okay. Bye. Bye.

360
00:18:33.300 --> 00:18:33.700
