I have been working with Excel for over 15 years and VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) in conjunction with Excel and Office for around 10 years and I take a huge amount of pride in the solutions I deliver.
My 4 key factors when completing work are -
1 - An efficient final product - If a product is memory hungry or takes an hour to run it's not been built correctly.
2 - A quick delivery ensuring deadlines are met - If I miss a deadline, you miss a deadline which means I have let you down and I don't like doing this!
3 - A product that does what is required - I can give you exactly what you need within the confines of the applications functionality. If you don't get what you asked for I probably don't get paid.
4 - The Grandma Test - If my grandma can't use the product then it needs reworking until she can!
I believe that detail is a worthwhile investment at the outset. I will work with you to tease out your specific requirements, enabling me to change the end result from good to great and give you something truly value added.
