Estimate team composition and timeline for MyEasyLead

Budget Considerations

  Monthly Team Cost (estimated):
  - 2 Senior Backend Developers: $24,000-32,000
  - 1 Senior Frontend Developer: $12,000-16,000
  - 1 Full-Stack Developer: $10,000-14,000
  - 1 Project Manager: $10,000-14,000
  - 1 DevOps (part-time): $6,000-8,000
  - 1 QA (part-time): $4,000-6,000

  Total Monthly: $66,000-90,000
  Total Project Cost: $726,000-1,170,000

  Risk Factors That Could Extend Timeline:

  1. LinkedIn API Changes: LinkedIn frequently updates their
  anti-automation measures
  2. Proxy Management Complexity: Managing thousands of proxies
  reliably
  3. Scale Testing: Ensuring system works with 20k+ connections
  per user
  4. Integration Challenges: Complex interactions between 20+
  modules
  5. Drupal Learning Curve: If team isn't deeply familiar with
  Drupal 11

  Alternative Approach - MVP First:

  Phase 1 MVP (4-5 months):
  - Core modules only
  - Basic connection management
  - Simple messaging
  - Essential dashboard
  - ~300-400 story points

  Phase 2 Enhancement (3-4 months):
  - Flow builder
  - Advanced analytics
  - Sales Navigator
  - ~250-300 story points

  Phase 3 Scale & Polish (3-4 months):
  - Performance optimization
  - Advanced features
  - Full automation
  - ~200-250 story points

  This phased approach allows for:
  - Earlier market validation
  - Reduced initial investment
  - Iterative improvement based on user feedback
  - Lower risk profile
