Why Build-Operate-Transfer – BOT Model?

One Man Army is not Scalable but the effective BOT-Model based team gives you required scalability.

Yeah, you heard it right and it is a hard-learned harsh reality. You are definitely super-CEO, but you need a partner for everything like Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Engineering. The BOT-Model provides you offshore engineering partner.

Saves Time and Money

It is just not the fact of low-cost resources are available away from home location, but you are able to delegate the tasks to your effective partner and team so that:

– Tasks are executed round the clock and in-parallel. Essentially you can achieve more in less time.
– Your own time is saved to do other required and important tasks.
– It is YOUR team modeled into your CULTURE just working away from your home location.

Above is a change in mindset and attitude toward the Product Startup Execution, but it is very crucial change to be done by sharing the trust, sense of ownership and accountability with your BOT Model Partner.

Backup gives you stress-relief
It sounds like more weird reason and why BOT Model releases your stress – especially you have also built the team near you i.e. home location team. Startup goes in different stages and each stage is different & requires you to take corrective steps. During such course of correction, your home location team may be compromised due to multiple valid situations like business does not go expected way & you need to take a different route by reducing the team, competitors are pulling your own resources and financially you may not be in a position to grow engineering more at your home location. While facing all the above-mentioned situations after spending at least couple of years with your BOT Model Partner, you have a backup for engineering team away from your home location, which gives enough stress-relief to focus more on Sales & Marketing.
