Why Consider Customized Marketing Software Applications...
...when there are literally 1000s of marketing software applications out there? The answer is a simple. Your business and your needs are not the same as someone else's...in your industry or not. Off the shelf applications have to fit the needs of the majority of users. In the decades, we've been in business and the different industries during that time, we've never found one situation where the business could function with or fully utilize off the shelf applications without making major expensive changes. And, usually the business ends up trying to force its business practices to fit the software, or they end up not using some or all of the application. What's best practices for one industry, is not necessarily best practices for another and you can bring that down to the business level as well. Hence, we focus on tailoring all marketing software to fit clients' specific needs.
You’re inundated with marketing and sales data. So, what do you do with it? You need a way to quickly understand that information so you can put it to immediate use. In seconds, with just a few clicks of a mouse, our custom interactive flash dashboards can show you what is going on at every level of marketing and sales. No more wasting time trying to make sense out of stacks of spreadsheets and reports. Problems and opportunities are easily and quickly identified, so you can save time and take immediate action.
If you need a customized interactive marketing software tool or applications for a specific function, such as breakeven analysis, sales leads calculation, campaign results calculations, ROI analysis, etc., we can design that tool for you. The price and time to develop these tools varies and depends on functionality and complexity. Pricing starts at $500 for one function apps. For a quote on a specific application or tool, contact us and we'll be happy to provide you with a price and timetable for development. For examples of the types of tools that we can build, visit the Marketing Tools & Resources Sections of our website.
Tools and applications can be developed for consumer as well as business only use. The primary focus of consumer app development is for sales promotion purposes.

The typical interactive dashboard project takes 4 – 6 weeks from concept to completion. All Flash and XML production files are ported to your servers and are hosted on your intranet and can be accessed through any Flash enabled web browser. The project typically goes live two weeks after we have received your data. Your results are refreshed monthly and we make any minor user interface design changes or tweaks that you might want at that time. The pricing on interactive dashboards ranges from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on the functionality and complexity of the dashboard. Monthly refreshing of data and maintenance begins at $500. If you require updates more than once a month, we can quote you a price for that service based on the frequency of updates needed. |
