ACT! Contact List 3x more useful with this Addon

ACT! 2009 From the Trenches Installation Best Practices

I put a special video together showing customers how I install ACT! 2009.  This is from experience of installing many versions of ACT! over the years, and historically has been a common issue for those experiencing issues with the software.

This video is available for free for customers who purchase ACT! from my webstore.

Thanks in advance.
