Not Nascent

Potential Client: “We hear you offer pro bono work for nascent start-ups. We have an MVP we were wondering if you’d be willing to help build. We need a full-time mobile engineer for about four months to help us get this thing launched.”

Me: “You are a 12-yr old real-estate company with revenues somewhere North of $400M+ a year and a team of 40 people working on the problem. Nascent and start-up are two words that should not be in your vocabulary.”
