Field Notes from Nigeria

Why this works here

Create support, maintenance, analytics, automation, content, and growth retainers from a completed software project. The Nigerian version must account for WhatsApp behavior, bank-transfer proof, mobile-first administration, support handoff, and visible trust.

Proof and risk standard

Avoid this

  • Do not include unlimited feature development in maintenance.
  • Clarify emergency response windows.
  • Separate hosting and third-party fees from your service fee.
  • Treating generated output as final legal, pricing, or technical advice
  • Using vague inputs that produce vague artifacts
  • Skipping assumptions, exclusions, and review notes
  • Letting AI calculate money or contracts without rule-based checks

Proof standard

  • Live URL or shareable artifact
  • README or operating note
  • Screenshots with sample data
  • Risk and assumption list
  • Next commercial action
  • Generated draft
  • Assumptions list
