occasional consulting hours anyone?
I'm looking for someone who can help me when I get stuck on a project. I am thinking a half hour one day maybe an hour on another day. Maybe a web-conference is all that is needed, maybe I need to pay for an hour of research.
I am a sales engineer for a product that is the "master system of record for nothing". As a result, I use SOAP UI Pro to serve as middleware for the purpose of a demo.
I generally keep to the simple stuff because I'm not a programmer and I'm relatively new to APIs. I get stuck and, as I get better, I get stuck at points that are beyond where my colleagues can help me. I have projects that have timelines (as we all do) and, after I search the web, I'm sometimes left with just a little bit more to do but unable to finish because I can't figure out the last step or two. Very frustrating.
Currently, I'm looking for help with getting the Google API Key added to a call (or some legitimate Google authentication method into maps). I also have a 5-line Groovy script if/then statement that I need to define and additional property in. That's my need today but I will probably get stuck again in a week or two with another problem. As a sales engineer, every project I have has different needs and there is always a project or two or three that I've got on my plate. Getting stuck is part of the game but I now need someone outside my group to help me out.
Thanks,
Will
