Expect more from your tech: How a good partnership can transform your business

Choosing the right tech partner can make or break your vision—here’s why it pays to work with a team you can truly trust.

If you've had a bad experience working with a tech firm, you aren't alone. It's a familiar story we hear at Pixo when clients finally find us.

It’s exciting to hear what clients are dreaming of when we first connect with them. Whether it’s an efficiency-boosting app or a website redesign to better connect with their audience, it’s always interesting to understand what brought them to Pixo. Some are eager for big changes. Others are frustrated with outdated technology. The common goal? To modernize and streamline their tech tools for greater efficiency and impact.

Often, organizations haven’t had a true partner before. They’ve lacked the guidance to create and implement new technology effectively. 

Sometimes we hear about a dedicated employee who took the lead, but their expertise eventually reached its limit. That’s when they seek outside help.

Unfortunately, Pixo more often gets called in after a previous tech partnership has soured. And as I learn more, I’m seeing that not all agencies operate with the same values. Many agencies don’t care about the people and purpose behind what they’re building. This really drives home the importance of finding a team you can trust.

  • One company felt betrayed by an agency that replicated their custom solution for competitors. At Pixo, our contracts are clear: With our work, everything is custom and owned by the client (you, not us).
  • Another company invested heavily in an app that quickly became obsolete. It lacked the scalability for their vision to grow. It broke my heart for them.

What’s your big idea?

We’ll help you build it

If you've had a bad experience working with a tech firm, you aren't alone. It's a familiar story we hear at Pixo when clients finally find us.

Here’s the point: Pixo digs deeper than immediate needs. We build solutions with room to evolve, ensuring your technology supports long-term growth.

Some agencies avoid difficult conversations about timelines and costs, but at Pixo, we embrace them. We discuss potential hurdles and offer well-informed options, empowering our clients to make the right choices with the information we have available. 

We help clients understand the possible hurdles and give them options with as much information as possible to make the best choices. Without all the information, an organization wastes valuable resources such as time and money on their technology choices, which none of us can afford to do. 

A good tech partner should be able to dream with you about the possibilities and also ground you in the reality of time and costs to make those dreams come true. That’s the difference between a vendor and a partner. A true partner helps you dream big while staying grounded in reality. 

Expect more from your technology and your tech partner. Look for a team that prioritizes honesty, transparency, and long-term success. Choose a partner who not only builds great solutions but also builds trusting relationships based on shared values. With the right tech team, your vision for your business is completely possible.
