Overview

This was a interesting project, in that the original brief from the sales guys was that he wanted a Blog with subscriptions, a page for customers to make general payments, via credit card, and the ability to sell some of his products.

So the project was quoted based on those specifications and the project when into build. But due to some very loose documentation in the sales proposal, large amounts of additional features and specification continued to kreep into the project and blowing it out. This Project ended up being a great example of important a well documented list of deliverable is to any medium to large project and a type of client to possibly avoid in the future.
