Developments in the field of New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) in China have exceeded all expectations. The Middle Kingdom is by far the largest market for NEVs, with 50 % of global passenger cars being sold here (International Energy Agency (IEA), 2018). The numbers for NEVs are ever increasing: in the first half of 2018, NEV sales already reached 412,000, up from 195,000 vehicles sold in the first half of the previous year (Center for Automotive Management (CAM), 2018). Overall, China has taken a pioneering role in the e-mobility sector, with numerous Chinese cities on their way to having a fully electrified bus fleet by 2020, if not sooner.
China' s quick progress in the electro-mobility field is as much a result of industrial policy considerations as environmental concerns. A comprehensive electro-mobility ecosystem is a foundational aspect of what China regards as a strategic industry in the coming decades, supported by measures implemented at national, regional and local levels. The goal is for NEVs to make up 20 % of all vehicle sales by 2025 (State Council , 2015).
China's transition to electro-mobility has led to a general reshuffling within the global automotive market, which of course has significant consequences for German car manufacturers. China is currently both the world's largest automotive production site and its largest sales market, as well as an industry leader in terms of investment and development. Hence, the country has not yet realized its full potential in terms of NEV. In 2015, the density of passenger cars was a mere 121 vehicles per 1,000 people – a figure that is estimated to increase to 200 by 2021. This is still notably less than the passenger car density in Germany, which currently stands at 555 vehicles per 1,000 people (2016). However, the situation in first-tier coastal cities such as Beijing, Shanghai or Shenzhen is markedly different. Passenger car density in Beijing, for instance, has already reached 260 vehicles per 1,000 people (2017). This has led to traffic jams and severe air pollution, which result in policies by municipal governments aimed at reducing the number of conventional vehicles while promoting the development of NEVs.
This report gives a detailed overview of the various measures by which the Chinese government seeks to promote electro-mobility. The current market situation in China is examined, and the industrial policy targets of the central government explained. The body of the report provides a detailed description of the three main incentive measures: financial incentive mechanisms (4.1), non-financial incentive mechanisms (4.2), and requirements for manufacturers (4.3). Finally, the Sino-German cooperation on electro-mobility is discussed, including an examination of charging infrastructure, as well as the outlook for future developments in China.
Sandra Retzer serves as Head of "Sustainable Mobility, Energy and Infrastructure" of GIZ in China. She is responsible for Sino-German policy dialogues and technical cooperation projects in the fields of energy, electro-mobility, low carbon transport and sustainable urbanisation.
Markus Wagner is Project Director of the develoPPP.de project "Environmentally friendly power supply of ships for air pollution control in Chinese ports". At the same time, he supports the projects "Mobility and Fuels Strategy as a Contribution to the Traffic Transition in China" and "Support and Advice of Sino-German Cooperation on Electro-Mobility – Phase II" through developing ideas for technical studies on topics relating to mobility and fuels and research on policy and market developments in the area of electro-mobility.


If You Hurt Someone You Love By Saying Horrible Things, Can This Person Be Healed?
A priest told this story about a tree and a nail to a person with a habit of saying things out of anger.. He said.. Everytime you get mad go and hammer a nail into a tree.. After awhile that tree is full of nails.. You can regret it later.. You can go out and remove all the nails.. But you can't remove the holes or the damage. yes there is forgiveness but those hurtful words still leave a scar even if it heals over. I know that even today I can remember things said to me as a child that hurt.
I can't so i wonder if others can. Thanks for the answer.
Just about anyone can be forgiving but its hard to say that you will forget, and not forgetting it will make it hard to say if you truly forgive.
I have had many bad things said to me from someone I had cared for in the past I said that I forgive them but i never forgot what was said so I have held on to those thoughts and it caused me to build a wall .with there being no trust there can be no forgiving or forgetting.
Thanks, and I very agree with you. Truly forgive is near impossible as we cant forget.
Forgiving is easy, healing takes much longer, you never forget.
If this person is a strong individual they will heal in time. They probably will forgive but not forget.
If Someone Has MRSA, Can It Be Spread By That Person Touching Food Products?
Once a person is saved, is he always saved? How would you convince me if you say yes / no? It can be by the following: Illustration Bible Scriptures Reasoning Etc.
Do you think depression and anxiety can be healed without medication or seeking professional help? can it be healed by sheer willpower?

Upon arrival, meet your guide and transfer to your hotel, before enjoying a guided introduction to this amazing city. The colonial grandeur of the buildings that line the west bank of the Huangpu River, on the famous Bund, hint at past glories, and are now surrounded by the modern city's gigantic skyscrapers. Your tour will include a visit to the rocket-shaped Pearl TV Tower, which surveys the city, and the fascinating Shanghai City History Museum.
This morning, tour Shanghai's Old City, at the heart of which is the 16th-century Yuyuan classical Chinese garden, with its pools, walkways and bridges - a haven amongst the bustling bazaars and street markets. After a fascinating morning, board the coach for the 90-minute journey to the ancient city of Suzhou and your next overnight stay.
With its silk trade associations, tree-lined waterways and thousand-year-old classical gardens, Suzhuo, set on the Grand Canal, is a breathtaking gem. Discover the Old City's charms, visit the beautiful Lingering Garden and the Silk Embroidery Institute, and enjoy a canal cruise as this fascinating place is brought to life by your guide. Late this afternoon, board a high-speed train for the journey north to Beijing, where you'll spend three nights.
Tour the Chinese capital with your guide, visiting some of its most famous attractions. You'll see Tiananmen Square, site of Chairman Mao's tomb and gateway to the great Imperial Palace (the iconic Forbidden City). In the Palace's ceremonial halls and living quarters, as well as in part of the vast museum, you'll gain an insight into the extraordinary lives led by its privileged occupants - 24 Chinese emperors. You'll end your day in Beijing with a traditional 'Peking Duck' dinner.
The Great Wall of China is famously (though not entirely accurately) the only man-made structure visible from space. Travel to Badaling, where, amid steep, forested hills, part of the wall has been lovingly restored, and it's easy to appreciate the immensity of this marvellous feat of engineering. Your day will also include the opportunity to see the exterior of the amazing 'Bird's Nest' stadium from the 2008 Olympic Games for yourself. This evening, you might choose to join an optional excursion to the world-famous Beijing Opera, to discover its mix of song, dance and acrobatics.
The majestic and tranquil Summer Palace at Yiheyuan is today's destination. You'll also have the opportunity to step back in time on a rickshaw tour of the ancient hutongs, Old Peking's fast-disappearing labyrinth of narrow alleyways. Bid farewell to Beijing, transferring to the airport to fly to the port of Yichang. There you'll meet a five-star ship for your cruise on the Yangtze, the third longest river in the world. The journey upstream is highly enjoyable, not least for the change of pace.
Spend three unforgettable days enjoying the ever-changing vistas from your ship, as you cruise the mighty Yangtze River. Rest and relax on board, join early morning Tai-Chi sessions and hear the legends of the Three Kingdoms. First off, you'll visit the immense Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest hydroelectricity project - a controversial feat of engineering that has wrought drastic change on the riverscape. You'll then sail through Xiling Gorge, the longest and deepest of the Three Gorges, which together stretch over 200km and vary from 100 to 300 metres in width.
The 'Small Three Gorges' on the Daling River are a stunning backdrop for an excursion by boat. Sail through Wu Gorge and Qutang Gorge, admiring the sights of one of China's most dramatic regions. Though changed forever by the famous dam's construction, the landscape retains the spectacular grandeur of its 900-metre cliffs and jagged peaks.
Early risers can join in the on-deck Tai Chi session before a buffet breakfast. This morning's port of call is the 2000-year-old 'Ghost City' of Fengdu, a place shrouded in ancient legend and Taoist teachings about the afterlife. For your last evening on board, join the Captain for a Farewell Dinner and crew show.
Disembark in Chongqing, and enjoy a guided introduction to one of modern China's fastest-growing cities. Visit the contrasting 100-year-old streets of Ciqi Kou and explore beautiful Goose Neck Park, before boarding a fast train into Sichuan province and the relaxed, modern city of Chengdu, where you'll stay for the next two nights.
In Eastern Sichuan's capital, modern developments contrast with the traditional tea-houses and colourful shops of old Jinli Street. One of the highlights of your stay in Chengdu will be a visit to the Giant Panda Breeding Research Centre - learn about these wonderful creatures and the steps being taken to ensure their future survival. Dinner this evening will give you an opportunity to sample traditional Sichuan cuisine.
Today you'll fly to China's ancient capital, Xi'an, for a two-night stay. You'll visit the ancient city walls of this fascinating treasure trove, with its Great Mosque in the Muslim Quarter and its Tang dynasty monuments. This evening, enjoy a traditional Dumpling Dinner.
An unforgettable day awaits, as today brings a chance to marvel at the legendary Terracotta Army - some 8,000 lifelike foot-soldiers, horsemen and charioteers discovered in 1974 - now one of the world's greatest tourist attractions. Close by, the yet-to-be-excavated tomb of emperor Qin Shi Huang is said to contain a vast underground city. You'll complete your tour of Xi'an's ancient treasures with a visit to the Small Goose Pagoda, before an evening in the city.
You'll fly back to Shanghai for a final evening in modern China's most vibrant metropolis. Discover the preserved streets of the former French Concession, also home to some of Shanghai's most chic boutiques. This evening, complete your visit to China with an optional City Nightscape Cruise.
Join us for a mesmerising mix of man-made sights and astounding natural wonders. From Shanghai's glass and steel to centuries-old Beijing, this tour takes in Giant Pandas, Xi'an's legendary Terracotta Warriors and the 'silk city' of Suzhou. On a cruise down the ageless Yangtze, you'll witness the spectacular Three Gorges Dam - an engineering marvel - and discover a land rich in myth, legend and stunning scenery.
You will be staying in a series of good hotels, of at least a European three-star standard.
Within walking distance of the famous riverfront Bund and downtown shopping, this modern hotel has several restaurants and a bar. All of the rooms have great views over the city, as well as TV, mini-bars, tea- and coffee-making facilities, hairdryers and safes.
Located a short walk from ancient Guan Qian Street, this cleverly designed boutique hotel is full of local art and combines old Chinese tradition with the new modern China. There are two restaurants, a bar and a gym. Rooms are modern and warm and all have TV and safes.
Close to many restaurants and opposite the Temple of Sun Park, this modern hotel has two restaurants plus a sauna and spa. Rooms are large and comfortable with TV, mini-bars and tea and coffee makers.
Specially designed to navigate the Yangtze River, the ships we use are officially rated five stars - the highest rating awarded by the China National Tourism Administration. Enjoy all the comfort and elegance of river cruising, including attentive and professional staff, delicious meals and spectacular scenery from every stateroom and public area. Shore excursions are bookable during the cruise.
Centrally located close to shops, this modern hotel has a restaurant and bar, a tea and cake shop, and a seasonal outdoor swimming pool. All rooms have TV, mini-bars, safes, and tea- and coffee-making facilities.
A centrally located hotel with a restaurant and bar, an indoor swimming pool and a gym. All rooms have TV, mini-bars, tea- and coffee-making facilities, and air conditioning.

Please note that optional excursions during your cruise can be booked on board, and are not available in advance.
The water level of the Yangtze can change. If the level becomes too high or too low your ship's sailing schedule may have to change, and the ship's crew reserve the right to do this at any time.

I love everything about Wingers. I love the popcorn you get to munch on when you sit down, the yummy vanilla rootbeer, the yummy salads, sandwiches, fries and asphalt pie, but most of all I love their wings. They are definitely best known for their yummy wings. I was thrilled when they came out with Sticky Fingers. They have the same great taste of the wings, but no bone to deal with. Every time I go there, even if I order a salad, I always order two sticky fingers on the side. So, I was thrilled to try this recipe. And let me just tell you, it is pretty darn close to the real deal. In fact, I bet if you served these for dinner and told everyone you stopped by Winger's on the way home, they wouldn't even notice the difference. This recipe is definitely a keeper! It is spicy yet sweet. So yummy. Now, you can have Winger's anytime you want. I made five sticky fingers and served with curly fries. I did double the sauce recipe and I had plenty for coating the tenders and extra for dipping.
Heat hot sauce, brown sugar and water in a medium saucepan until sugar dissolves. Meanwhile, heat 1 cup oil in medium skillet. Add 2-3 tenders at a time, cooking about 3 minutes per side or until crispy. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and continue with remaining tenders. When they are all cooked, put tenders in a tupperware bowl with the sauce and shake until completely coated. Serve with additional sauce and Ranch. Note: If you want their creamy amazing dressing, just mix the sauce with Ranch. *Double the sauce recipe if you like extra.
Oh my Jenn. I saw these and my mouth started to water! I swear!!! I will soooo have to make these!

For nearly a decade, Energy Fairness has brought together consumers, policymakers and other stakeholders to discuss energy policy in a fact-based, non-partisan manner.
The group's commentary and perspective has been featured in publications such as the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The Hill, Morning Consult and the National Journal.
Energy Fairness believes that the national conversation about the future of energy must include discussions about the cost of energy choices, as well as their benefits. In the end, America's working families and businesses pay for the energy future we create today. That future must be affordable and based on rational decisions, rather than rhetoric.
Paul Griffin serves as the Executive Director of Energy Fairness.

I am honoured that you have agreed to serve Canadians as Minister of Indigenous Services.
As you are aware, I recently announced our government's intention to dissolve the Department of Indigenous and Northern Affairs and to replace it with two distinct, though complementary, departments, each with its own minister. I expect that you and your colleague, the Minister of Crown‑Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs, will collaborate closely to advance the Government's ambitious agenda.
As Minister of Indigenous Services, your overarching goal will be to ensure a consistent, high quality, and distinctions-based approach to the delivery of services to Indigenous Peoples. I expect you to continue the progress that has been made on improving the delivery of services to First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples. You should adopt a rigorous results and delivery approach. This work will require delivering real and improved results in the short term, improving outcomes over the longer term, and supporting the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs to modernize our institutional structures and governance so that First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples can build capacity that supports implementation of their vision of self-determination.
ensure that we are working with Indigenous Peoples to measure progress and improve service delivery on an ongoing basis. Please work across government and with the Privy Council Office's Central Innovation Hub to co-create new and meaningful partnership models with Indigenous communities and civil society partners.
As we move towards greater Indigenous self-government, continue to oversee the provision of existing services to Indigenous Peoples, and particularly First Nations under the Indian Act, including the provision of community infrastructure, emergency management, water, education, moneys and trusts, and registration.
Ensure the successful delivery of the significant investments made in Indigenous services through Budget 2016 and Budget 2017. This includes new and repaired housing, ensuring First Nations children on reserve receive a quality education, and eliminating all long-term boil water advisories by 2021 as a key measure in ensuring First Nations people on reserve have access to clean drinking water.
Support the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs' consultations as we adopt machinery of government changes to renew the relationship with Indigenous Peoples. This will include the dissolution of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, and the creation of two new departments. This work should increase our capacity to function on a distinctions basis, ensure we implement agreements with Indigenous Peoples, and identify those services across the Government of Canada that are best delivered by a Department of Indigenous Services. Please provide recommendations to me, under my prerogative for the machinery of government, on the division of responsibilities between you and the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs and your respective departments.
So that we can swiftly benefit from the engagement of Indigenous Peoples, public service leadership, public sector unions, and external expertise on this specific change, I have asked the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs to prioritize her consultation efforts in relation to the anticipated transfer of responsibility for the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch from the Minister of Health to yourself. You should support her in these important efforts.
You will be a member of the Working Group of Ministers on the Review of Laws and Policies Related to Indigenous Peoples, chaired by the Minister of Justice. Drawing on the Principles respecting the Government of Canada's relationship with Indigenous Peoples, and in full partnership and consultation with First Nations, Inuit, and the Métis Nation, the Working Group is developing recognition of rights framework and ensuring the Crown is fully executing its legal, constitutional, and international human rights obligations and commitments, including constitutionally protected treaty rights.
Lead work to create systemic change in how the federal government delivers health services to Indigenous Peoples in collaboration with the Minister of Health and the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs. Specifically, I would ask that you take an approach to service delivery that is patient-centred, focused on community wellness, links effectively to provincial and territorial health care systems, and that considers the connection between health care and the social determinants of health. You should also work with the Minister of Crown‑Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs to develop governance models that bring control and jurisdiction back to Indigenous communities.
Develop and implement an improved response to the provision of child welfare and health care under Jordan's Principle that focuses on the best interests of the child. This will require a holistic approach to the delivery of services that focuses on prevention, family preservation and well-being, and community wellness. It should include responding to immediate pressures to deliver health, child, and family services while working with the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs on self-governance frameworks.
Work in collaboration with the Minister of Infrastructure and Communities, and in consultation with First Nations, Inuit, and the Métis Nation, as well as provinces and territories, to improve essential physical infrastructure for Indigenous communities, including improving housing outcomes.
Work with the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development to support the implementation of a distinct Indigenous framework as part of the National Early Learning and Childcare Framework that will take into consideration the unique needs of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis children as a step towards delivering affordable, high-quality, flexible, and fully inclusive child care.
Continue work with the Minister of Status of Women to support the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development in ensuring that no one fleeing domestic violence is left without a place to turn by continuing to grow and maintain Canada's network of shelters and transition houses.
Implement Budget 2017 enhancements to the Post-Secondary Student Support Program, and work with the Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Labour as well as Indigenous partners to undertake a review of all current federal programs that support Indigenous students choosing to pursue post-secondary education. The purpose of the review is to ensure these programs meet the needs of individual students while supporting completion of a post-secondary credential.
Work with the Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Labour and the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development to promote economic development and create jobs for Indigenous Peoples.
Support the Minister of Sport and Persons with Disabilities to leverage investments in Indigenous youth and sport and ensure promotion of culturally relevant sport as an important means to strengthen Indigenous identity and cultural pride.

Home » Forum » Business Discussion » Marketing & Sales » What CRM Do You Use?
I'm looking to expand my business and the first thing I want to do is build my online presence. I was contacted by Signpost and was impressed with their sales pitch, but know there are other, better options out there based on my quick internet search.
Just curious to hear what CRM platform you use and your feedback on it? Do you like your CRM? Why or why not?
Bonus: If you are familiar with Reputation Management Software, which platform do you use or which would you recommend?

Re: What CRM Do You Use?
Let me give you what I know since I have limited knowledge, but good experience with this company I am recommending.
Just a warning when looking for a CRM since the industry targets are important for you to make use of a CRM for the right price point. I needed two separate customer referrals to understand this better.
I run MyOnlineToolbox that focuses on helping contractors with their Online Marketing to Get More Quality Leads. I was a speaker at the recent remodeling show in Baltimore and also was in search of a CRM package that I could refer. I met a company that is completely focused in this space and had a lot of references. Really nice group of people. I was more learning at a high level and did not get focused on the details.
But I had two customers ask the same thing (looking for a CRM) and I passed them both along to the company. The first customer found it a perfect match and has been using them for a few months now and has said a lot of nice things about the product, company and price. The second customer decided not to use them, but to be fair their business model is different. Keep in mind that I work with Residential & Commercial Contractors, as well as Specialties, Remodeling and New Home Builders. I would ensure you look at their target markets to ensure you fit the structure.
Now that you are aware of the warning, the name is MarketSharp with the focus of tracking prospects until you close the deal and have a new client. My client tells me they help automate follow-up processes to eliminate anything slipping through the cracks. The system also assists in acquiring more repeat and referral business by proactively nurturing the customer.
If you use them, great for you! If you do not, come back and explain why since I would prefer to recommend them for the correct construction circumstances.
Thank you for the insight and reply. I ended up getting a little deep down the rabbit hole and came across Reputation Management Software which seems like the move for me at this moment in time. Are you familiar with RMS? Is it something that can easily be integrated into a CRM platform such as yours, Market Sharp or whoever else?
When I get a bit more free time, I will be digging back into the CRM side. For now, I will likely be testing out BirdEye for an RMS solution.
Well the RMS is a different topic than CRM. That is not something I know about, plus I would suggest opening another thread so the subject stays on point. Sorry I couldn't help further.
What is it, exactly, that you would like your CRM software to do?
What annual cost is reasonable that you would have to pay for the rest of your business life?
What happens to your records, ability to access data and your reports when you stop paying the monthly fee for the CRM service?
"If you have a horn, don't be afraid to toot it"
You were definitely helpful. There is quite a bit of overlap between RMS and CRM platforms, especially with some of the providers, but I'm not familiar enough with the platforms to know all of the nuances yet. I've been doing a lot of research on G2 to see what I can learn.
I would like to find a CRM platform that can be scaled up. At this point, I'd like to automate some things like my appointment confirmations and follow ups after a job is complete to ensure customer satisfaction and consistent, professional messaging in a timely manner.
Eventually, I'd like to keep growing my database, so I can let my customers know when I have specials, host events, or have milestones through larger, automated messaging.
The RMS side of it ties in just from the online reputation management side of things, so that when I do communicate with my customers and there are issues, I have a chance to address them if they go (unintentionally) unchecked by me or my team with the customer otherwise.
I know there are other ways I can utilize a CRM platform, but I'm still educating myself on what other ways it could potentially help me manage and grow my business. Do you have any thoughts or words of wisdom?
I am 100% against paying one penny for any type of canned business software and I run several businesses with free software I picked up from an old friend.
We (my friend and I) are strong believers that every facet of a business should have one simple software program dedicated to that facet i.e. a customer list, CRM, or whatever you want to call it. It has to be free, simple to use and you have to be able to customize it, yourself, so the software does exactly, to a 'T', what you want it to do.
So, if you want to do customer retention management you have one separate software, one for your bookkeeping, one for tracking your daily To Do List that includes service calls, callbacks, appointments, etc., one for tracking active jobs so you can follow through to the end, one for writing contracts, etc.
You don't pay one penny, for the rest of your life for your software and you can still access all your software with a smart phone, tablet, etc..
Downside? I really don't know of any with the exception that it appears that maybe canned software is prettier and it has to be worth more because it is costing a lot of money.
How do you get free software that will do everything you want software do to? Very simple! Go on Ebay, purchase a copy of MS Access 2003, download it to your computer and I will show you, on CT, how to create your own software with already made templates, within minutes.
To access your software from a smart phone you will need a service i.e. GoToMyPC that costs (I think) about $19 per month and everyone you give your password to, i.e. your workers, can access the software, or maybe, you can use TeamViewer for free to access your office computer. I never took the time to see if I can access my computer through TeamViewer without having a person at my office computer. I did make the mistake, one time, of clicking on the button on TeamViewer saying I was using the service for business purposes and had to pay a one-time lifetime fee of $850. I really only wanted to use the service a few times and TeamViewer refunded my money. There is an option for Personal Use that is free for a lifetime., But, being lazy, I pay the $19 per month for GoToMyPc.
For my office, I purchase used computers on Ebay for as little as $39, monitors for as little as $15 and I use these computers solely for my employees to access my software. That way, I don't have to give access to my main computer. While I am willing to give my employees access to my software the truth is I don't think one employee ever logged on because they are too busy and when they want information they always call me and it takes 1 to 2 minutes for me to log on and give them what they want. I don't believe in having my employees nor myself spend lot of time playing with computers when we are in the field. Trying to do computer work in the field is too distracting and it can be done is a much shorter time when in the office. I think the whole world is getting screwed up with too many people staring at their phones every minute. People are spending too much time focusing their eyes on their phone apps when they should be utilizing their time to focus on much more important things. I will show you why and then how we do accurate data entry all day long without accessing our apps every minute and then how we enter our data every morning in a few minutes so that all our data is 100% accurate.
I logon to my office computer no less than 10 times every day to retrieve information i.e. when I want to look up a customer's purchase history. I can look at one database so see a list of every job, how much they paid and look at notes. I access another database that shows the customer's contracts. Another database shows customers' payment history (since my company gives a lot of long-term credit. I can access another database that manages our daily service calls, callbacks and appointments.
I don't believe in entering data into databases from a remote location. One reason is because while I can set security passwords and levels of security, to keep from having remote data entry problems I don't actually use my working databases for online access. To keep from allowing employees to make data entry errors I copy my working database to the computer I use for online access.
One other thing, mentioned, I don't believe in is integrating software with sending any type of text message, or email since that has to be the worse and most impersonal way of doing business. Our customer list software has many systems for creating letters, labels and for tracking and managing advertising campaigns.
I would like to find a CRM platform that can be scaled up.
Very interesting. On one hand, I love the idea of a true work around the SAAS model how just about every provider structures their platforms, but on the other hand it sounds like a time commitment to not only get started, but to execute the campaigns and keep track of everything. I'm ok with paying for a solution that creates efficiencies and enhances my business, but if this solution is comparable and is a true work around, I would be interested. Can you PM more details or your email address if you wouldn't mind taking this conversation into a bit more depth?
Have you or do you use Sage? Can you share a little feedback about your experience?
I see you can tag and track your online photos and content, which would be great to see where traffic is coming from. Have you used this? How do you incorporate it in your day to day for full effectiveness?
it has checks and balances so that it is accurate to-the penny.
The first thing you need to do is purchase MS Access 2003 and then I will set you up with a system that works for you.
Like I said, before, I run several multi-million dollar businesses and use only MS Access. I do not use QuickBooks nor any other software with the exception that I use Quicken Online only for writing my employees' paychecks, but I do not use the software to track paychecks after they are written.
Here is the entire Office Suite with MS Word, Access and more for $17.97 on Ebay. That sounds like the price is too low, or purchase the Office Suite for $49.95.
This price for Sage is from the internet and it is a ridiculous price to pay. The problem with canned software is when you stop paying you own nothing. Even if you purchase the office version for $1495 you still have to pay an annual fee and what happens when you stop paying the annual fee.
Sage CRM Pricing. Sage CRM subscription pricing is $69.00 per user per month. On premise software pricing begins at $1,495 per server and $495 per user license plus an annual support plan in the range of 15% to 21% of the retail price.
Owning your own software is always the best choice. Especially, when you can make it do exactly what you want it to do.
You really have to decide exactly what you want software to do. In my opinion, canned CRM software is definitely not for any type of contractors. CRM software is more for companies with a massive number of customers and/or for tracking and marketing for online businesses.
As a contractor, I would never ever do any type of marketing through emails, text messaging nor would I waste my time with social media advertising because it takes too much management and time. I have no respect for other businesses that send me a text or email to thank me for their business. Whatever happened to the personal touch by calling on the phone, or the best method that is sending a personalized letter to say thank you.
CRM (customer relationship management) for contractors should be more personal and you don't need to pay one penny. I have set up MS Access to automatically send emails and even to dial phone numbers for telemarketing, but later removed those features because customers complained and wrote bad reviews on Yelp when I sent bulk emails to customers and I got bad reviews when I did telemarketing to existing customers. Customers don't want to be bothered with emails, texting, or telemarketing, but they still love the personal touch i.e. receiving a nice personalized letter thanking them for their business, or even advertising with special offers that are only for them and not so much for the general public.
I already have MS Access templates that do everything a contractor needs for CRM, a lot more and it can be customized for your business in minutes, but you need MS Access, first, so you can try it, get familiar, find out what is has and does not have.
Every other software program costs a lot of money and even they have a learning curve and sometimes what you learn after you pay is not so great.

Hi, everyone, I'm Howard Myers, my wife is Emma, we live in Colorado. I'm writing in hopes that you will pass this story along to family and friends, so other states don't make the same mistakes as they did in Colorado on the pot issues. It was Jan 22, 2002, when our three kids, who were heading home from school, were hit head on at 50 mph in a car crash.
The young man who hit them was high on marijuana.Bethany 17, was life flighted to the hospital. She broke her collarbone, and had a mild brain injury. Today she still has to go to therapy for her back and neck pain. She is married, her husband is a captain in the Army, and they have three little boys. She earned a degree in the medical field.
Lukas was 12, he broke almost every bone in both legs, both wrists and his nose was broken; he also had a mild brain injury. He was pinned in the car for one hour, then life flighted out. He was in the hospital for 3 months. After 1½ years they had to amputate his right leg. Today he is a volunteer fire fighter and EMT.
He also rode with a group called Amputees Across America. They ride their bikes across the U.S. to go into rehabs to encourage people.Ethan, 9, was taken to the hospital by ambulance, as his condition was too bad to wait for the helicopter. He had broken both legs and had a traumatic brain injury. He was pronounced brain dead that first week.
He was in a coma for one month, and in the hospital for 3½ months. He had to relearn how to talk, walk and eat. He was a junior volunteer at the hospital for 3½ years. You can see his video on YouTube. Search for "Ethan's Story Memorial Hospital".We have been speaking in schools since 2004, on drugs and alcohol, and sharing the kids' story. We are also still dealing with legal issues as of today.

I have been control-clicking the green string in the Sculpture synth for 10 minutes, and it refuses to produce the menu to either activate or deactivate the string animation. Anyone having a similar problem with Logic 9?
In addition to this, I assume the compatibility with 64-bit plug-ins is a good thing. I'm not sure what the 64-bit native mode does, but I'll take it!
Hi folks! I posted this over on the Apple board for Logic Pro and never got an answer so I'll repost it here. Perhaps someone here had the same experience... After taking a relatively small, 4-bar sample and trying to bounce it in place, I noticed that the CPU and HD meters pegged to the right, while the playhead and marker line looped over and over. I essentially had to force quit Logic after 15 seconds or so of quick problem assessment, which obviously was useless. Somewhere along the line I lost about 20 GB of space on my hard drive, which I am sure is the result of this issue. I had looked at the space available prior to this problem and it ended up being much BELOW where it had been just moments before. I have no idea where the space on the HD went (or what might be occupying it), nor what caused the CPU to spike. Anyone have any ideas? Not sure if it created a huge file worth 20 GB or so and where it might have been stored. Thanks in advance!
