## First a merchant, then a specialist

Before eCommerce, Francesco Guiducci built important international work experience at a major multinational company, which adds to his engineering education and to everyday work in international settings.

The years as a merchant, running several stores first-hand, taught problems and decisions from the seller’s side: real results, mistakes and constraints.

English is a daily working language, for Italian and international projects.

## Understand before intervening

Every project follows the same sequence. Decisions, technical responsibility and control of the result stay with the founder: no agency, no account manager, no handovers.

- **Analysis**: Goals, data, constraints and the real state of the project.
- **Cause**: Telling symptoms, dependencies and priorities apart.
- **Design**: Choosing native configuration, theme, app or dedicated development.
- **Verification**: Checking the result and the relevant regressions.

## Tools, not shortcuts

AI tools and agents support analysis, development, verification and organisation. Decisions, technical responsibility and control of the result remain with Francesco Guiducci.
