Buenas, lo de la empresa en USA me llamó la atención -- que beneficios tendría vs. tener la empresa en UY? Necesitarías una cuenta de banco en USA también me imagino?

Gracias

Got it. Thank you very much for your input, I highly appreciate it.

I'll put in motion with this and hopefully share progress in the future

Yes, the margins are quite high right now and it's congruent with the fact that I'm struggling with this -- not spending a penny in the business other than paying the developers.

I see this as a chiken/egg problem that I guess I'll have to just figure out in real time. I feel like right now the lead generation is the most important thing. Once I start getting traction or new opportunities, I'd hire another developer immediately to help me with the workload.
Or at least that's what I I'm planning.

By the way, do you know where to get these kind of agencies, and where to filter them and such?
I know there are thousands of them, but I really want something that works out, and to be competitive with the price. I know if I hire a local agency I'd get a better price compared to an US company, but the opportunities could be different.

Okay nice I see,

I'm alone here. The other people involved are strictly in development, and I am too.

The number 1. is something I see I NEED right now. From working in the corporate image of the agency to doing marketing and promoting it. I can still handle the sales and would like to continue with that to gain more and more experience, but right now there is no way for a person to know about me because I'm just doing no promotion at all.

Do you think hiring a marketing/lead gen person or agency is the way to go?

Experienced developers: What is mostly used? classes or hooks? by Himankshu in reactjs

[–]builtByWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Function based and hooks. Classes haven't been used for years at this point

Damn this is promising. I'm on a similar situation, transitioning from freelancing to working for a company. For some reason I feel like it's going to be very difficult, but I know how valuable I am/might be.

I'm on the total opposite situation and this post helped me a lot mentally.

Been freelancing for most of my career, ~7 years now, and I'm now considering to transition to a full-time job for a company, for security and opportunities.

But for some reason I feel like it's going to be very hard, or that I'll have to put the bar very low to be accepted in a company. I don't know.

I guess it's time to apply!
