News from David Ashkenaz -
Independent PrintSmith Consultant		June 2011
Dear Friends and PrintSmith Users, 

This month starts my 14th year as an Independent PrintSmith Consultant! I take great pleasure in helping my fellow printers master PrintSmith and use PrintSmith to it's fullest potential. Anyone who doesn't employ PrintSmith's many features, is just letting a valuable asset sit and get wasted! PrintSmith with all of it's features, is one of the most valuable assets in your company. Start using PrintSmith to it's full potential, call or email me and let's discuss how I can help you and how it will be worth the money spent!

 

As many of you know, prior to doing PrintSmith consulting, I owned my own

 

 

I always look forward to your comments.

Sincerely,

Report Writer's Value

Many more users are starting to get the value of Report Writer.I can write hundreds of reasons why you need Report Writer and what it could do for you.
  
A few reasons and reports that can written include:
1) List of clients you haven't seen in 2 months (or sooner).
2) List of clients who spent over $XXX.xx with you last July, so you can market them now for work in July. Great to recapture convention or special work then did.
3) Commission report -- how can you possible be accurate doing it manually?
3a) Commission report WITH different commission rates for different reps OR different types of jobs (in house vs outside work).
4) How much did you spend on plates last year, vs. how much did you sell? Same can be said for ink, boxes, paper, etc.
5) How much are you outsourcing for a specific function?
  
The list continues on and on, especially if you are using Tracker!!
  
Make sure you are using Report Writer to it's fullest potential, your competition may be!
How to learn Report Writer and how to use it!
Obviously you can read the OUTDATED Report Writer manual and figure out what it means, or you can hire me for a day and teach you the basic of Report Writer and then you can create your own reports or modify the existing one.

A one day course includes showing you (and your staff) the basic functions to create many reports. In fact we will create reports for you while I teach you. I will also show you how to modify the reports that ship with Report Writer and how one report, can be modified in just a few steps to create several reports.

I will also teach you how you can set up schedules, so that the commission report can run on the 1st of every month "automatically".
 
I will also be available to help or create reports for you after my visit.
 
Start maximizing PrintSmith's and Report Writer's potential - you will be glad you did!

Why Use Bar Code Scanners?
 
Bar Code scanners are a vital part of PrintSmith! While they are great for the new modular TRACKER, they are primarily used to scan job tickets and see where each and every job is within you shop. This saves valuable time looking for jobs while your clients are on the phone.. Just go to your Pending Document window and see where each job is!
  
I sell the wireless scanners ($650.00 each) or the wired ones ($225.00 each). Both come programmed for PrintSmith and includes free delivery.
  
No PrintSmith system should be without them!

Buy them here using the PayPal link or the Credit Card Authorization link here:
