However, it\u2019s not without pitfalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article we\u2019ll explain how to go about interacting\u00a0with\u00a0developers in order to bridge the communication gap between yourself and your team. If you can learn to communicate effectively, your chances of receiving just what you want are greatly improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Tips_for_Communicating_What_You_Want_to_Developers\"><\/span>7 dicas para comunicar o que voc\u00ea deseja aos desenvolvedores<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Know_What_You_Want\"><\/span>1) Saiba o que voc\u00ea quer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe.png\" alt=\"Comunicando o que voc\u00ea deseja para os desenvolvedores Wireframe\" class=\"wp-image-12312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe.png 740w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe-359x170.png 359w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe-700x331.png 700w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Wireframe-156x74.png 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you even think about approaching a developer to help you with your project, it\u2019s vital you have a clear idea of what you want. We\u2019re not just talking about the big picture here. You need to have\u00a0the finer details and small print that describe and define your project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Esteja preparado para documentar claramente seus objetivos e criar instru\u00e7\u00f5es e diretrizes detalhadas que todos possam seguir para realizar o trabalho. Imagine que voc\u00ea fosse subitamente removido do trabalho. Sua equipe conseguiria concluir o projeto?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the project, this documentation might include a style guide, mock-ups, and\/or flowcharts. If you don\u2019t know exactly what you want, there\u2019s little chance even the best developer will deliver something you\u2019re happy with. Time spent up front hammering out the details is never time wasted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quanto menos voc\u00ea presumir e quanto mais documentar, mais tranquilo ser\u00e1 o andamento do projeto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Do_Your_Research\"><\/span>2) Fa\u00e7a sua pesquisa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So you need some customized programming for your existing website. What program language will your developer need to be proficient in? If you want to hire a developer to add a members-only section to your WordPress website, what plugin should they use? These are the types of questions you\u2019ll want to ask yourself\u00a0before you approach a developer about your project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to have <em>todos<\/em> the answers; after all, you\u2019re hiring a developer for their expertise. However, doing a bit of research on what you hope to achieve and how the project can be completed\u00a0makes\u00a0it easier to find someone with the right skills and to ensure the work is completed in the way that you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just remember not to go too far the other way and try to bluff your way through conversations. Be comfortable with exposing your ignorance. You\u2019re the expert at\u00a0what you do, and the developer is the expert at\u00a0what they do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Choose_Your_Tools_and_Methodologies\"><\/span>3) Escolha suas ferramentas e metodologias<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"412\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello.jpg\" alt=\"Comunicando o que voc\u00ea quer para os desenvolvedores Trello\" class=\"wp-image-12313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello.jpg 740w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello-305x170.jpg 305w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello-700x390.jpg 700w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Communicating-What-You-Want-to-Developers-Trello-156x87.jpg 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Managing a project through email may have been a viable option in the past, but times have changed. Using your inbox as a check-off list isn\u2019t the most productive way to get things done. There are now countless powerful, free tools like Slack and Trello that make managing a project and communicating with your team much more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you get started, spend a bit of time deciding how your team will communicate and what, if any, methodology you\u2019ll be following, from David Allen\u2019s <em>Realiza\u00e7\u00e3o de tarefas<\/em> (GTD) ou uma abordagem estruturada para o gerenciamento de projetos, como o PRINCE2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to define a communication schedule to let your developer know what to expect. Include the turnaround time you expect for communications and what format you\u2019d like reports to be in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4) N\u00e3o tenha medo de fazer perguntas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure why your developer has done something in a certain way, ask. Again, there\u2019s no need to try to hide your lack of knowledge, so don\u2019t be afraid to respectfully question their decisions \u2013 within reason of course!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your developer can\u2019t give an adequate answer for something\u00a0they\u2019re proposing or something they\u2019ve done, they might not be the right person for the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Stick_to_Your_Guns\"><\/span>5) Mantenha suas armas<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Often the reason you\u2019re hiring a developer is because they can do something you can\u2019t or have a higher level of expertise in the field they\u2019re working in. However, this doesn\u2019t mean you should let them talk you into changing your mind or adjusting your project to suit their needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good developer should be trusted to use their expertise to get the job done in the way they think best, but remember, it\u2019s your project and your vision they\u2019re working to realize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Give_Useful_Feedback\"><\/span>6) D\u00ea feedback \u00fatil<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, your project plan should include ongoing communication with frequent updates from your developer. This ensures your project stays on track and that you don\u2019t find yourself with something totally different than what you initially expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the most of regular updates, be sure to provide useful feedback to your developer. If you don\u2019t like something, let them know why. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nothing is more frustrating than being told something is wrong and not knowing why. And demoralizing your developer is not the way to get what you want. Make sure your feedback is meaningful and actionable at all times\u2014even when you\u2019re happy with the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7) N\u00e3o queime suas pontes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you never know when you might need to work together again, it\u2019s vital that you keep on good terms with your developer as the project is wrapping up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost all software will need updating and improving over time, so make sure you keep to your end of the deal after the project is signed off \u2013 whether that\u2019s settling the invoice on time, leaving feedback on a freelancer website, or writing a testimonial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Considera\u00e7\u00f5es finais<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Embora voc\u00ea possa ter a sorte de <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/go\/fiverr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\">encontrar um desenvolvedor<\/a> who understands your vision from the outset, most of the time that\u2019s not the case.
