After 20 years of watching software projects blow up because the agency optimised for the contract, not the outcome, I started HELLO PEOPLE to do it differently. Fixed prices in writing. On-time delivery, every sprint. Direct line to me, not an account manager.
What I've helped clients build
A snapshot of the kinds of problems I solve — usually fixing software that has stopped serving the business that runs on it.
System Integration
Connected job, accounting and CRM data to remove double entry and improve visibility across the business.
Data Migration
Moved historical customers, suppliers, invoices, bills and transaction history into a cleaner system structure.
Legacy Software Upgrade
Rebuilt an old internal system into a secure web app while preserving important business logic and data.
