Fast Good Cheap
I keep a poster with this saying next to my desk. It applies to almost anything: bikes, websites, and is a perfect reminder for me and for clients of the tension between quality, ambition and budget. It is not that the holy trinity of FAST, GOOD and CHEAP is impossible, but it is helpful if everyone is clear about which one they are willing to be flexible on. Put simply: PICK TWO.
FAST
GOOD and FAST
will not be CHEAP
GOOD
GOOD and CHEAP
will not be FAST
CHEAP
FAST and CHEAP
will not be GOOD
