  4. How IntegratorDashboard was created In 2009, Shawn realized that many things were slipping through the cracks in his small, but growing company. Neither the company’s various software programs nor its old processes were working. He invested in Microsoft SharePoint and began sculpting it to encompass the many aspects of an integration company. What developed is IntegratorDashboard.

  5. Sobering Thoughts • According to a University of Tennessee research Study: • By year number ten, a full 71% of all businesses started…Failed!

  6. Sobering Thoughts • Per that same study, the most common reasons for that statistic are: • Lack of Clear Focus • Lack of Market Awareness • Pride/Going into Business for the Wrong Reasons • Burn-out from too much work • Bad advice from Family and Friends

  7. Is it Time? • Could the problem really be too little time? • At some point, even the best integrators hit the “wall” • The point when they can no longer keep their finger on everything • Things start to fall through the cracks • Then there are the specific challenges of our profession….

  8. Challenges Facing Today’s Integrators • Ever changing installation schedule • Lack of communication and information among your staff • Managing service for your fleet of vehicles

  9. Challenges Facing Today’s Integrators • Collection of accounts receivable from clients who are taking longer to pay these days • Manage and hold sales people accountable for their performance • How about just trying to stay focused!

  10. How many times do we enter the same information? • There are: • Good Proposal Software Solutions • Good Accounting Software Solutions • Good CRM Software Solutions • Good Inventory Solutions • Until now, there has been nothing that ties it all together

  11. Why Integrator Dashboard? • Endorsed and Developed by Integrators • Built specifically for the way we operate! • Easy to Implement • The reason most software solutions never make a difference is the time and costs involved in implementing • We purchased a well known Proposal software program three years ago

  12. Why Integrator Dashboard? • I thought the price of the software was expensive • The real cost was the time it took to set it up and get all the products input • Then there is the constant upkeep • Integrator Dashboard can be completely installed and running in three weeks • Installed by trained professionals

  13. One Dashboard • See all of your vital statistics • Customers & Projects • Sales Funnel • Schedule – Install & • Vacation • Vehicle Maintenance • Open Work Orders • Let’s see it in action!
