For example (real world case), say you approach me to help you establish .Net development connectivity to an Oracle server, that, with mention of versions, being the specification or big picture goal for the first day. I then create a Visual Studio project in the language of your choice and verify it's operation in the context of the specified target software which I establish and configure on your server(s). The VS project, the working program it creates which works against the specified configuration is the complete deliverable for that day (plus the standard 1 week of email support). | For example (real world case), say you approach me to help you establish .Net development connectivity to an Oracle server, that, with mention of versions, being the specification or big picture goal for the first day.

Even though exemplary value has been rendered for the price paid, if the buyer slides in ir perception from the actual deliverable and task focus to their overall project goal then confusion can ensue. | ||

This example is typical of the sort of task which is a self-contained project in itself. Most projects require more than this, but this service is intended for situations where the end deliverable can be created in one to five business days, no more. | This example is typical of the sort of task which is a self-contained project in itself.
