The current crisis forcing many companies to work remotely has made companies look at alternatives for doing business. We have gotten dozens of calls on how to set up CRM access, and how to manage quoting. For many customers, this has caused them to take a really hard look at their current quoting process, especially […]
Back in 2018 I blogged about warm calls. Reese, one of my long time customers, and now dear friend, called me recently to check in on us. That’s how he is. You can always count on a fun call that lifts your spirits. While we were chatting he said it’s time for another one of […]

Many of you know we are a computer consulting practice. We also do process improvement (on a small scale) and give advice on sales processes (again on a small scale).

After I sent out a Tweet about the video I got back quite a few interesting comments but one in particular inspired this blog post. This follower liked the video and said that the Act! […]
We’re starting Quotewerks Tip of the Week blog posts and today’s is about a trick a lot of people may not realize exists. Quotewerks has so much power it’s easy to not know every single feature or nuance. A client wanted to be able to export Quotes to Excel so they could import them into […]
Today’s blog post is the first “official” entry for my Reese’s Southern Wisdom series. During my conversations with Reese he kept referring to maximizing his strengths and “strategizing” his weaknesses. This phrasing is a bit different than you will typically see when you research this concept. And that is on purpose for Reese. It’s classic […]
