And relationships matter.This series documents the real lessons behind projects in small markets—the decisions that operators make (or miss) that determine whether projects deliver or drift.
Bonus when you subscribe: How Weather Quietly Decides Return on Cost —the 32-week hurricane delay case lesson that explains how seasonal timing is a financial decision, not just a scheduling one.

Delete it or save it.I don't operate in these markets—is this relevant to me?: If you're building in any small market—Caribbean, Pacific Islands, even secondary markets in Latin America—the operational principles are the same.What's the catch? Why is this free?: Why am I giving this away? Simple. I've watched too many competent developers get burned in Caribbean markets—not because they lack skill, but because they lack context.

Just weekly intelligence for people who operate in markets where judgment matters more than hype. If this helps you avoid one $200K mistake, it's worth your inbox space.
