...Phoenix December 7th, 2015 Professor Andrew Nash The Software Packages The Two off-the-shelf CRM software packages that could best benefit our organization as it relates to the production of medical devices and interaction with the healthcare field are Salesforce (www.salesforce.com) and Infusionsoft (www.infusionsoft.com). The first of these two CRM software packages is Salesforce, the leading software for CRM.

The software will allow Virtual Reality Imaging (VRI) Technologies the ability to anticipate customer wants based on past behaviors. Whether this will be the complete 3D Scanning system or individual repair parts, this software will allow VRI to be on top of what the customer wants and needs. This CRM software package from salesforce will allow us to connect with our clients/customers on a 1 on 1 basis, making our organization more consumer friendly. Salesforce use of the cloud allows for faster connection to our clients through mobile and social apps.

INTRODUCTION E-marketing can be considered to be equivalent to Internet marketing. Most in the industry would look at it this way. However, E-marketing is sometimes considered to have a broader scope since it refers to digital media such as web, e-mail and wireless media, but also includes management of digital customer data and electronic customer relationship management systems (E-CRM systems). Extending these channels to include electronic marketing or e-marketing activities requires proper planning and effective implementation. Small business face more challenges than large business when deploying offline marketing activities due to limited resources, such as huge cost of advertising on magazine, TV, Radio, newspaper etc. We analyze challenges facing small business when implementing e-marketing activities; choices of available web technologies, implementation and deployment costs are major factors. The availability of high speed and low cost brand Internet access from Internet Service Providers have encouraged consumers to subscribe to...

...UAA Case Study Subaru In the document “Outage at UAA: A Week Without Critical Information Systems” the Executive Summary describes that it is rare for a disk failure to result in an outage at a system level. The term “rare” is subjective and cannot be measured without measuring impact. Is it rare if it only occurs once every year? The answer depends on how much pain is inflicted on the organization when the event occurs. If an organization experiences once a year an enterprise wide service interruption that lasted between a day, then the organization would not consider it a rare occurrence. For those who are accountable to the service outage, they may explain the outage as the result of a rare occurrence to save their credibility (and perhaps their job). The impact resulting from disk failures at UAA had a harsh impact on the organization. Some organizations might not survive a similar outage. In the case of the University of Alaska at Anchorage, comprehending the potential causes and impact of an EVA failure before the fact would have led to better planning for the potential of an EVA failure. A BIA and subsequent BCP would have reduced the effect EVA outage on the entire UAA organization. To further comment on the perspective of a disk failure being rare please note that from an IT operations perspective, I reject the notion a disk failures are rare. Although a hard drive manufacturer may quote meat-time-between-failure (MTBF) in the thousands of hours, hard drive...

I met with Ruben Keys and Lisa Tejada the club owners on a Monday afternoon after spending the Friday night before with some friends at Club It. I was pleasantly surprised at the professionalism and first class nature of the club. Although the club had a good crowd I could see where several strategies could be put into place to attract more clients.

Several strategies as well as business models can be used to help Club It with their own business needs and assuring that their business will be successful. Strategies that can assist Club It to be successful are, cost leadership strategy, differentiation strategy, innovation strategy, operational effectiveness strategy, and customer orientation strategy [ (Rainer & Turban, 2009) ].

...Evolution of Communications Jean Keliikuli-Nichols Network Communications Infrastructure Prof. Solomon November 3, 2013 Transferring Communication Requirements into Network Upgrades There are several ways for the Johnson Company to update their communication methods. Depending on the size of the company they will most likely have to invest in a total upgrade meaning newer databases. This company cannot afford to stick to the past where orders are taken over the phone and written on an order form or typed out on a typewriter. With the Wide World Web out there for everyone to explore, invest, shop, and bank they would lose time and probably some customers. The first thing to invest is in building a website for the company this is part of the competition world where most businesses are found through the internet. There is so much the employees could do with the use of computers; taking orders online where your customers could easily place their orders and within minutes your customer service personnel would receive and put through the order and get the process moving to the next level. The next and import step would be to invest in a strong IT infrastructure with new servers (web, email, database), computers, routers and updating phones. Keeping in contact with your customers through email is faster and all mail is saved in the databases if it needs to be retracted. This will include not just workstations but reliable customer relationship management software. There are...

...Computer hardware and software were analysed and compared before choosing a suitable update for the currents equipment. 3 FINDINGS 3.1 Floppy disks were used to save spreadsheets. Floppy disks are not big enough to save spreadsheets and are not commonly used anymore; most laptops/computers don’t have them built in anymore although you can buy an external one. The company would need many floppy disks to save spreadsheets and they would take up a lot of space. Floppy disks are easily broken by dust or dirt. 3.2 Many files/records were duplicated because the older software did not support filter or sort. This could waste a lot of time and use up valuable space. Allowing duplicates allows more space for mistakes. A software upgrade here would be valuable. 3.3 Paper diaries are currently used. This is useless as the message takes ages to get to employees, if they get there at all. Paper diaries are easily misread, edited or lost. Staff members would need electronic diaries 3.4 The companies computers have a 128mb hard-drive, this is a slow speed and with files been saved on the...
