Finalising your Christmas Wish List?




Put Workamajig in your stocking for 2011!
Dear

If you have the time during Mad Month to look back on this calendar year and think about how well you are managing your projects, you will probably come up with areas for improvement.
In our experience a typical wish list includes:
  • fast and accurate report writing
  • flexible task allocation
  • easy selection and approval of digital assets
  • options for calendar/diary sharing and management
  • immediate actual-to-budget project snapshots
  • project status summaries
  • integrated CRM 
  • client access option with security controls
  • easy timesheet entry options
  • personal 'to do' lists    
     
These can all be achieved by dedicating, in the next month or two, a small amount of your time to viewing a demo of Workamajig, discussing with us your specific needs, agreeing on an implementation timetable, and making the decision to make it happen.

The old but apt saying - "if nothing changes, nothing changes" is worth considering if you believe your projects can be managed with less time and less stress involved.

We will manage the implementation, assist with the set-up, offer data entry and transfer services, conduct whatever training is required, and then provide on-going support for a smooth transition.

If you want 2011 to be an improvement on 2010 - (and who doesn't, even if you have had a cracker of a year - sorry, Christmas pun) we will work with you for that outcome.

So, pick up the phone or drop us an email to book a demo, or just put it in the diary to do when you return to your post in January.
A quick overview and check of our systems' compatibility to your operation can be done in 20 to 30 minutes. That will be time well spent!


We wish you and your colleagues a happy festive season, and a relaxing holiday, if you have managed to arrange that, with the anticipation of a prosperous New Year.

Sincerely,
Rondelle Taylor

Workamajig
beach2009

A web-based tracking and integrated project management software,Workamajig streamlines new business and sales leads, assigns staff to tasks,offers detailed project trafficking, and manages the whole project cycle through to accounting and financial reporting.
One of the strengths is 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.

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.
