From the Desk of...                                                                                                               July 2008

 

Hello :

Last week I met with one of the more innovative marketers in the Hampton Roads area, Arnel Tanyag. His company, Drescher & Tanyag, coaches organizations through the marketing process using workshops and one-to-one consulting. Tanyag says: “You have to have a database to track your leads and clients. Without one you will never get ahead.” Arnel has worked with several CRM packages and he tells his clients to “…keep it simple. Focus on the audience you know you can win and stay in front of them. Marketing is about relationship building, not advertising.” Are you building relationships at your company? Do you have a plan and the tools you need to execute it?

I want to thank Arnel for the words of wisdom. I know we will share a long term friendship and business relationship. Arnel can be reached at arnel@arneltanyag.com or (757) 754-6198.

Sincerely,

Joseph Growney

And then came Google Maps

Don’t you hate it when…

One of the things that I always wanted in Ready Contacts© was the ability to get instant direction…and now I can.

I used to be heading out to a meeting and printing driving directions at the last minute. Copying the address and pasting it into MapQuest or Google Maps to get those directions was just annoying. I always said to myself “Why can’t I just click a button and get these?”

With our latest feature you can click a button and get exactly what you need. Additionally, you have all the map view functionality at your disposal for any contact in Ready Contacts©. Like everything else in Ready Contacts©, it’s simple.

Just kidding!

Funny!

Bill Gates is hanging out with the chairman of General Motors.

"If automotive technology had kept pace with computer technology over the past few decades," boasts Gates, "you would now be driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of 10,000 miles per hour."

Bill Gates continued, "Or, you could have an economy car that weighs 30 pounds and gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas. In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50."

In response to all this goading, the GM chairman replied, "Yes, but would you really want to drive a car that crashes four times a day?"
