JULY MEETINGS & EVENTS


ETS: What Gets Measured Gets Done - Tracking Your Sales Success
Simple, visible measures of what’s important should mark every square foot of every sales department. This seminar will allow you to decide where to place special emphasis on developing measures associated with revenue generation. New competitive challenges call for rethinking supporting systems. We must:

• Develop simple systems that encourage participation and understanding by everyone and that support initiative taking on the front line
• Measure what’s important to the business. Every manager should track no more than three to five variables which measure the essence of the business.

This seminar will help you decide if what you’re tracking is going to help you grow your business.

Quickbooks for Beginners (3 Part Series)
Tracking where your money is coming from and where it is going to, is one of the most important steps you can take to help insure your business becomes a success. However, it can be time consuming. QuickBooks, an “accounting” software program, helps to give you back your time by simplifying the bookkeeping process. We will focus on setting up the program, how to keep track of transactions, financial reports and much more. This is a HANDS-ON training class, IF YOU HAVE NEVER USED QUICKBOOKS OR YOU'VE JUST STARTED THEN PLEASE JOIN US.
