Editor's Notes
- Firstly, Thanks to the organisers for the invitation to speak today. My brief was to deliver a presentation outlining specific functionality, important choices you may need to make when choosing new software and the different modules that your resort business will need to operate. With emphasis more and more on the clients and prospects using mobile technology to communicate instantly in real time its more important than ever to choose the right software for your resort business. Another brief from Paul Dean was to make the presentation simple to understand using little or no teccie speak. I should have no problem with this part as i am living proof that being a carpenter in a former life its true what Arthur C Clarke once said .....
- I will cover three main areas throughout the presentation today Why its really important to industry specific software for your business Infrastructure and the main differences between old or traditional technology versus the new technology available today I will detail the essential modules required to make the running of your business efficient, scalable and future proofed
- There are many reasons why you may be looking for software Those spreadsheets are simply un manageable now – you have used all the tabs and all the colours of the rainbow to try and manipulate data Because your businesses processes have become too manual and require automating You want to efficiently use your staffing resources The use of real time data , home workers, multi destination resort locations, offsite sales centres and lead generators You need to save money and generate new income streams All of these reasons and many more lead people into researching software – The key is to fins something that can do everything you need today, tomorrow and the next ten years
