What vendors do They can’t do everything by themselves! – Too many countries – Too many people to hire from day one They start with a small team (2 to 6) They decide to scale through partners They outsource most of the tasks to an external company: – To accelerate the process – Minimize the cost – Minimize the risks
106
We are an extension of the vendor team! Benefits for the vendor – Ready made team of experts – Less Cost – Faster Go To Market – variable cost – It’s much less risky – scales up or down as needed
