Happy New Year (financially speaking)!
 
Dear

If your new year's resolutions include improving the management of your projects, upgrading your financial information and better handling your new business prospects - we can help you keep them.

Establishing your needs.
Working out what you really need from a project management system is half way to making it happen.

If you want to kick off (had to include a FIFA reference) with a simple project tracking software system, without the added detail of task scheduling, staff allocation, etc., that is where we will start. Further options of:
  • CRM - managing and tracking all your new business opportunities and email marketing
  • Financials - fully integrated with purchase orders, invoicing, budgeting, WIP, and detailed report options
  • Digital Asset Management with approval and storage management options
  • Media - Trafficking and Billing, import and update print and broadcast orders from your media buying system
  • Integrated Calendar and Diary Management, with In/Out Board. Can be integrated with iCal and address book on a Mac, and Outlook on a PC.
  • Client Log in - very controlled and limited access offered to clients if you recognise the benefit
can all be included when you are ready to appreciate them.

Your team can learn in stages, or can take on all the available modules from the commencement. We cover all scenarios and will tailor the implementation and training accordingly.

Software Downunder offers full diagnostic consultancy services to establish your current needs, timing, and budget and help you take up new options when those needs are extended. We recognise a new system should be exciting - not daunting!

You can make that new year's resolution happen by getting us to help you with your wish list and getting the process underway. Reward your team with a system that gives them what they need.

So, pick up the phone or drop us an email to book a demo. A quick overview and check of suitability to your operation can be done in 20 to 30 minutes. That will be time well spent!

Sincerely,
Rondelle Taylor

Workamajig
beach2009

Workamajig offers a brilliant option for file reviews and approvals. This function can be used to route files or web URLs to the project team members for their feedback. The reviewer can approve or reject the item and the system will store the results in the project. Files can be sent out to several contacts at once, or in a selected order that progresses only when each stage of the contact list approves.

An interactive diary adds notes related to the project so they are stored as part of the project's history. This can be made visible to the client - or not - and can be emailed to the project team members when saved.

Our latest upgrade now includes very comprehensive CRM capabilities, managing sales activities, opportunities, leads, contacts and companies.

About Us
Our director, Rondelle Taylor, has had ten years experience as the financial controller of a medium sized agency, handling a wide variety of project types and sizes.
Recognising the problems of not having an adequate system for project management and profit tracking, and the need for the integration of separate systems (Excel, Word, and Myob etc.) led to the current consultancy role.
Maintaining a detailed analysis of available software solutions enables Software Downunder to recommend a system to best fit your needs.

About You
You need the software solution that suits the size of your business and the complexity of your projects. If your projects are simple and you currently have fewer than 10 people handling them, your software requirements may be simple also. Speak to our consultants about alternative software packages for your best fit.
