Client Overview 

Client Name: Amy and Dough
Project Overview: "Find My Bartender" is a versatile app designed for business owners, bartenders, service workers, and socialites. It allows users to discover local establishments offering specials and deals, stay connected with favorite bartenders and waitresses, and explore nearby events. The app is a comprehensive tool for users to enhance their social experiences and for establishments to increase customer loyalty.

Client Dissatisfaction with Previous Development: The initial version of the app was developed by another agency, but the client was unhappy due to missing features and poor functionality. We stepped in to address these issues, focusing on delivering a robust and user-friendly experience.

Establishment and Service Worker Integration: A key challenge was integrating the establishment login/signup functionality, allowing establishments to manage their profiles, post updates, and interact with patrons. This feature was critical for the app's success and was implemented seamlessly.

Privacy and Data Tracking: Implementing the incognito mode required careful consideration of privacy concerns while ensuring that establishments could still track user metrics without compromising individual privacy.

Payment Integration: We integrated Stripe to handle various subscription plans for the pro features, ensuring a smooth and secure payment process for users.
