Career Change, Life & Ham Radio
I see that it’s been over a month since I’ve posted to the blog. Lately, life has been getting in the way of spending much time with ham radio. While my career, family obligations, and just being “too busy� has kept me off the air – hopefully, the worst has passed and I can start thinking about radio activities again.
Apart from working the K5D DXpedition, I’ve been QRT for 2009. Ouch.
So, what’s kept me off the air?
Adapt Data Solutions:
CRM & Web-based Issue Tracking
I’ve launched a company to help companies manage “stuff�. Adapt Data Solutions works with companies to automate business processes and provide low cost, web-based issue tracking systems.
Every company has information to be managed:
- Tech support calls
- Product repairs
- Customer complaints
- CRM: Sales leads & customer contact information
- Training sessions
- ISO 9000 audit reports
The list goes on… and on… Many companies don’t track this information very well. Perhaps they keep it in Excel, or outdated MS Access databases. Perhaps it’s kept in Post-It notes scattered on someone’s desk.
It’s the ham radio equivalent of contesting with paper logs when much better tools are available.
Over the past few years I’ve been able to create several on-line tracking systems like this to streamline the business of a Fortune 100 company. In January, I left that company to create Adapt Data Solutions. I’ve partnered with EnterpriseWizard to provide these products and services to anyone. Extremely fast. Low cost. Risk-free. Feature rich. Adapts to your needs…. In this down economy, using tools like this can drastically improve the efficiency of your business that pays for itself almost immediately.
My company is already attracting attention – but if you can help get the word out, I’d appreciate it. If you or your company needs a CRM (customer relationship management) or web-based issue management database – contact Adapt Data Solutions!
Excuse the interruption – back to ham radio.
