Wishing You a Wonderful Holiday
‘Twas the holiday season and all through the house,
Not a creature was clicking, not even your mouse.
The stocking were hung by the “Windows” with care,
Glad that Win 7 was finally there!
My clients were sleeping, all snug in their beds,
While visions of Microsoft danced in their heads!
Elf Karen has taught you that ACT can be fun,
And the software you need for your business to run.
It’s...
ACT 2011 Road Show
It was a dark and rainy night – literally – in August of 2002.
Let me digress. I was one of the 12 consultants nationwide that had been chosen to run an ACT 6 launch event. I was given 6 weeks to secure a location, make audio/visual arrangements and run a trade show of ACT addon vendors. Attendees were invited based on a circle of Fort Lauderdale; the “powers that be”...
Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear
Gary and I attended the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert Rally on Saturday. Frankly, we were motivated more by the incentive of a $19 airfare than any political leanings. Gary jumped on the cheap fare the night the Rally was announced; we really didn’t know what we were getting into. In fact, it wasn’t until we were actually at the Rally that we fully understood the meaning of the Rally. Being...
Upgrading to ACT 2011 Will Actually Save You Money
I had a prospective client call me recently. He made it clear from the start that he had absolutely no desire to upgrade to the newest version of ACT. Not a problem as we support any and all versions of ACT. He then proceeded to send me his wish list for ACT which included finding updated information for his 4500 contacts, integrating with Outlook 2007 and bulk e-mailing. He was using ACT 5/2000,...
Synching ACT to Your Smart Phone
I ran a webinar this week on synching smart phones to your ACT database. Presenting with me was my old friend Rushang Shah of Companion Link software. Rushang looks like the guy selling replica watches out of the trunk of his car; the last time I saw him he must have had a dozen different cell phones in his brief case. Although I’ve used Palm, Blackberry and Windows Mobile devices in the past,...
ACT 2010 Will Soon be Here!
I know, I know. Another year, another upgrade. Upgrades can be expensive both in terms of money and time, but unfortunately they are a necessary evil of the computer world.
Some companies force you to upgrade every year or so. For example, Intuit’s tax tables will stop working when QuickBooks reaches a certain age, or you’ll no longer be able to access your accounts online in Quicken...
