Money Making Business Solution #4 from Softech Solutions – Using Your Data!

February 16, 2015 by Jill Gibson

data solutions with buttonIf you’ve been reading our blogs you’ve probably heard the word ‘Data’ from us oh, about a jillion times by now.  Well guess what, that’s because your data really IS that integral to the success of your business.  Our team of business consultants would tell you that the way you use the data you gather can mean the difference between playing dress-up with your dad’s ties, walking around the house with an over-sized briefcase and actually going into work and making a profit.

data in the shape of a squirrelThe first step, of course, is to act like a squirrel getting ready for winter; gathering any and all bits of data associated with your company.  This includes anything and everything from customer contact information, project statuses, client histories, financial statistics, sales records and so much more depending on your type of business.  Much of this data can be gathered as you answer phone calls, and go about your daily operations.  It may mean some extra effort on your part as well as your staff but will certainly pay off once you’re able to turn all that data into valuable information that can make you money.

The process may go something like this:  Your latest prospect, we’ll call him Bob, has just made a phone call asking for information about your business.  Before hanging up the phone you should not only know what Bob needed information about but you should also have, at the very least, his contact information as well as permission to follow up.  From there, you can now track any and all of Bob’s involvement with your company and even include him in your next Emarketing campaign or Newsletter.

Putting your data to use may be one of the most important aspects of running your business which is why our data analysis and business strategy experts at Softech Solutions are here to help.  We will work with you to streamline the way you gather and use your data so you can increase sales and retain more customers.

Testimonials

Our relationship with Softech Solutions began after we were frustrated with the lack of support that we received from ACT directly. We knew the software had the capabilities we needed, but we were not sure how to access them. This is where Jill came in. With her expertise and experience, we were able to design custom reports that allowed us to measure factors critical in our day to day business. In the long run, it was more compelling both financially and emotionally using Jill as our lead designer for ACT. She posses a skill set that is not easily replicated and would have taken us years to build in house. While people who read testimonials are sometimes skeptical, myself included, I can say this. Without Softech Solutions' help, the software would have been rarely used in our office and we would still be searching for a system to design custom functionality. We have Jill to thank for being incredibly accommodating and making our daily lives easier.
