We had to do a lot of up-front setup. Companies can go out of business if they have a fire and haven't prepared themselves.

We never really paid attention to the business side of it (before).

There's no way we can hand-write all of the checks we have to write to vendors without the computers. We couldn't conduct business the way we do now.

We're totally dependent on computer accounting and record keeping.

We have to figure it in the cost of doing business.

Often the business side has a good idea of what they want to do, but they might not understand the limitations, and they might not understand the possibilities. Have development and business get together at a very early stage so that you're not investing time and energy going down a wrong path.
