Your Company Might Be Worth $500,000 Less Than You Think, Thanks to Your IT

Let’s face facts… once you’ve spent enough time and money investing in your business, you’re going to want to see some return when the time comes for you to move along and let someone else take the reins. Whether that time is now or years away, there’s a critical element to keep in mind: any buyer won’t just be buying your business and its resources… they’re also buying any problems that come with it.

Does Your Business Technology Allow You to Showcase Your Capabilities? It Should!

Does Your Business Technology Allow You to Showcase Your Capabilities? It Should!

Picture this: you’re at a major industry conference. The coffee is mediocre, the lanyards are itchy, but the networking is pure gold. You strike up a conversation with a peer, an owner of a competing company. After some friendly back-and-forth, they ask, "So, how are you guys handling lead follow-up from these events? It's always such a manual grind for us."

You smile as you pull out your phone. "It used to be," you say. "Now, we just do this."

You tap a custom form on your phone, enter the information, and press submit. "There," you say. "That person is now in our CRM, they've just received a welcome email with our digital brochure, and a follow-up meeting is already being proposed for next week. The whole thing is automated."

The look on their face? A perfect, beautiful blend of awe and envy. That’s the ultimate conference flex: showcasing a business that runs like a well-oiled machine. It’s a silent testament to efficiency, foresight, and having the right technology in your corner.
