Custom Software Development - Business Owner Who Codes

Custom Software Developer Who Actually Understands Business - Not Just Code

Your Off-The-Shelf Software Doesn't Fit? Let's Build Something That Does.

Are you tired of:

• Forcing your business into software that wasn't built for your workflow?
• Developers who don't understand why deadlines and budgets matter?
• Tech consultants who've never had to make payroll or manage P&L?
• Paying enterprise prices when you need a focused, practical solution?

I'm Mike Cunningham, and I've been where you are. I ran a $2M/year business with 40 employees for 16 years before becoming a full-time developer. I know what it's like when systems fail at 2 AM, when clients are breathing down your neck, and when every dollar counts.

What Makes This Different:

Business Experience + Technical Skills = Solutions That Actually Work

• 16 years running my own company - I understand cash flow, operations, and why you can't wait 6 months for a solution
• 100% on-time delivery - Never missed payroll in 16 years, won't miss your deadline now
• 4-week typical turnaround - Most projects delivered in a month, not a year
• No tech babble - I speak business, not jargon

What You Get:

How This Works:

• Step 3: 4-week development - Most projects delivered within a month
• Step 4: You own the code - It's yours, forever, no licensing fees

Budget Range: Most projects $5K-$50K. I'm not the cheapest, but I deliver on time, on budget, and it works the first time.

Not interested in: Websites, basic WordPress, or simple brochure sites. I solve business problems with custom software.

Why Choose a Business Owner Who Codes?

Because I've been in your shoes. I've had equipment fail during critical operations. I've juggled vendor payments to make payroll. I've lost sleep over customer deadlines. When I build your software, I'm not just writing code - I'm solving the business problem behind it.

Portfolio available with 16 completed projects across manufacturing, healthcare, legal, financial, and government sectors.
