ACT! Contact List 3x more useful with this Addon

The contact list in ACT! is great, it allows you to see all your contacts, or a lookup of contacts in a spreadsheet like format, nice.  You can even pair down the lookup with ‘tag mode.’  If you really want to take the contact list to the next level you need to check this out.

I recently had a call with my friend Jim Durkin.  He has a product called Contact List Plus, and it turns the contact list on it’s head!  I recorded the call, and have posted a portion of it here for you to review.  It actually ended up being a full fledged training session on Contact List Plus.

iPhone 3G is it Worth the Upgrade?

Well, it’s here. The new iPhone. It seems Mr. Jobs and the folks at Apple have done it again. They’ve got many whipped up in a frenzy for this new device which is tagged as “Twice as Fast. Half the Price.” Clever marketing, and based on the video I watched from their World Wide Developers Conference a few weeks back, it certainly seems impressive, and I do think the upgrade is warranted on it’s own, beyond that third parties are making it even more compelling. Read on…

So what do you do if you are an ACT! software user and you want to sync your iPhone with your ACT! database? I have some good news, now you can sync your new iPhone with ACT!, wirelessly. Sounds to good to be true? (more…)

Internet Search Acceleration Webinar

Attention Sales and Marketing Professionals (ACT! and non ACT! software users alike)
Date: Thursday June 26, 2008
Time: 3pm EST, 12pm PST
What: Internet Search Acceleration Webinar
Register Here

Are you someone who knows the value search engines can provide your business, but find using them laborious and time consuming? What if you could automate most of your Internet research so you could sell more?

Recently, I visited with a friend who shared with me some amazing Internet research software. I don’t get super-impressed with software (afterall it is just a tool), but for folks spending time doing market research online, this high-end software is worth a look. (register for webinar here)

I was hoping to put a video up here to show you the software in action, but I’d rather have Mike show you personally, so I’ve made special arrangement with Mike’s office to host a webinar with you in mind.

This world-class suite of products allows companies to reduce Internet research from hours to minutes, putting them in touch with qualified prospects in a fraction of the time. In this 1 hour webinar you’ll learn how you can arm yourself with tools your competitors haven’t seen.
-Stop cutting/pasting contact information into your database
-Find your niche, no matter how specific
-Work with existing lists and directories
-Build a contact list in moments
…and that is just the beginning.

Mike showed me how he extracted hundreds of contacts from a
series of websites for export to a contact database of choice
in less than 2 minutes. (register for webinar here)

The software automates the “grind” functions of Internet research, such as:
-Trolling through company/directory/portal websites to find names, phone numbers, email addresses and such.
-Using search engines to find disparate information on contacts and companies
-Clicking/copying/pasting or retyping pertinent information from the web, into a usable format. (excel, outlook, ACT!, crm, ats.)

If what I’ve described resonates with you, please carve out an hour to learn
more on this webinar…Thursday June 26, 2008 at 3pm EST, 12pm PST

-Travis
PS: I’ve arranged for a free gift
from Mike for those attending
this webinar. Register here.

ACT Database Software Video, Another Way to Deal with Duplicates

Have you ever received an identical offline marketing piece (like a postcard, brochure, or promotional materials) from the same company more than once? How did that make you feel? Or have you ever sent a mailing out, only to find out that you send duplicate pieces to the same prospect, so that you not only incurred unnecessary marketing expense, but more importantly lost credibility in the mind of the recipient?

I battle this all the time in the online world, as I was forced to switch online mailing services not too long ago… Subscribers are still getting duplicates.

I recently evaluated a product to help deal with duplicates in ACT, in the right situation, it can save a ton of time and headache. Have a look.
