So much software, so little time

Do you have a task in your business that seems to take much longer than it should?

This could be anything from splitting your account spending and profits across the 30 apartment owners for end of month reporting, or entering your staff roster into the account keeping software for payments after you already entered it into the calendar for the staff to see (both are real live examples of problems we have solved).

You're not alone. Most businesses suffer from this issue in some way. If manual data entry or processing duplicate information takes up a lot of your time, it is worth investigating implementing a system built that takes care of it for you. You could save valuable hours that could then be spent on more important business operations.

Have you ever wondered how many of your customers live locally? Or which product is making you the most money?  Maybe you have an idea but do you know for sure?  Business systems can answer these and much more complicated questions with the right attention.

Knowledge is power - no more so than in business.  The data that comes from everyday activities is a key resource for monitoring your current position and planning future strategies.

All you need is a way to display the data you already have in an easily understandable form. Whether you're using Excel, MYOB, any CMS or a host of other software packages, the tools are available for you to use.

"I don't know how to use them" - that's ok, we do!  And we're very good at it.  Whether you need training in a certain product to help you organise the data yourself, or you want the data to magically appear when you press a button, we can help.
 

Spreadsheet programming

If you have a lot of information to organise into a form that's easy to interpret and update, then a spreadsheet is a good starting point.

On top of the standard mathematical functions (ie. adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying), it's possible to incorporate mini-programs and formulas into a worksheet to organise information and produce calculations instantly.

Don't worry if you're no Einstein when it comes to maths, because we'll do all the number crunching. All you have to do is type in the data, and the spreadsheet will do the calculations automatically!

A spreadsheet can also link to your client database to fill in address details and track invoices back to clients - all without additional software.
 

Databases

Data Mining

Did you know that you can use your business bookkeeping software to generate customised reports that draw extra information from other sources in your computer? Those reports can be viewed on-screen, printed or emailed.

There is a whole host of valuable information your software can can give you, but when you're up to your armpits just keeping the sales meter ticking over how do you find time to learn how? Easy, we'll find the information you already have that will help reduce your workload, and when you have more time we'll show you how to find it for yourself.
 

Microsoft Macros

Any operations that you perform regularly using Microsoft Office programs can be recorded into macros, or mini-programs that perform a sequence of steps on the data you select. We can increase your efficiency with Microsoft Office by showing you how to build your own macros and shortcuts for repetitive tasks.
 

Custom applications

If there's something that you want your computer to do but it's outside the capability of your existing software, we can design a purpose-built program for you. Contact Us to arrange a free consultation.
