How to get Accpac related information without constant emails.
Posted by Glen Mund on Fri, May 21, 2010 @ 05:33 PM
As a reseller of Sage Accpac we try very hard to keep our clients informed of information regarding the product via regular emails and newsletters. We push this information probably 1 or 2 times a month.
Some of you feel this is too much...
In response we have decided to use Social Media as a tool where you as the client can pull information regarding Sage Accpac, Sage CRM, Sage Accpac HRMS, Sage FAS, and other accounting software related information when you need and want it.
First you can follow our blog www.plus.ca/blog and if you don't want to receive email updates you can subscribe to our RSS feed (orange button near top of screen on our blog page) and use a product like Google reader www.google.ca/reader to keep abreast of what as going on by periodically checking your feed at Google reader. Our blog articles are written by our staff and other contributing others at least once a week and include articles on Sage Accpac, Accounting Software, Tax Issues, HST, Accounting Issues, etc....
You can do the same as above with the Plus News page http://www.plus.ca/company/plus-news/ on our website as well. Our news articles are geared more towards important announcements and changes at Plus Computer Solutions such as awards and the release of our new website.
Plus also uses Twitter to spread the Accpac gospel. Please follow us on twitter. Where we update you on various tidbits from Sage, and the accounting software world. Great information on how to choose an accounting system can be found at http://twitter.com/glenmund or http://twitter.com/pluscomputer.
Linkedin is an excellent networking site for business people and Plus uses this site to spread information to our Plus Customer user group. We announce events and have discussion regarding the latest Accpac and business related issues. This is an opportunity for customers to share info with each other as well as with Plus Computers please check us out at http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=1438857&trk=myg_ugrp_ovr
Please contact to Glen Mund at Linkedin.com as well.
At Plus we feel that these pull methods of disseminating information are less intrusive and annoying but ensure you as our customers can still get all the information you need to maximize the potential of your software solution.
Please let us know if social media is something you are using for your business and send us your social media links.
