SPECIAL OFFER FOR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEMBERS OF BATTLE CREEK, MICHIGAN AND CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEMBERS OF MARSHALL, MICHIGAN

As business owners or management teams, we recognize the challenges of rising costs. Technology is a key resource for most business transactions, healthcare delivery,  selling tasks or product manufacturing.  The internet continues to change the way we do business and offers some proven ways to lower our ongoing IT costs.   These next generation of services leverage the internet to lower costs of three key areas we all must face:

1. backup /recovery/business interruptions
2. fixed predicable cost for IT support, updates and monitoring
3. using the internet as a dial tone system to lower phone and internet costs

Let us take a non-invasive look to see if these actions can reduce your costs while adding more value than you have now.

Making technology decisions has become part of the management team jobs. Sadly, most of us don’t have enough technical background to sort out the options. We tend to rely on friends, maybe a single IT manager, a few articles on the internet or one persons point of view. CRT has a well defined best practice process that helps management see the choices, understand the costs (pro and cons) without feeling like you are making poor choices. After all, you are certainly capable of making a final decision once the facts are presented. No need to be a technical geek to understand the choices. We are often complimented on the ability to simplify technology decisions into a business choices. We are not on any certain “team” when it comes to technology. Borrow our experience and let us help you review the choices. Call CRT and ask for the business consulting department for a complimentary confidential 1 hour conversation.

Having an IT manager or IT department is convenient. Having a trusted IT advisor or vendor is comfortable.  CRT has a very special skill in reviewing IT relationships without destroying that relationship. Our agenda is not to automatically replace the relationship. Most management teams or owners are able to review staff roles, but may not have the technical background to get a fair assessment.  Using an outside party creates a safe setting to improve the overall process,  uncover certain risk areas that may need to be mitigated , confirm best practices or occasionally uncover an awkward situation that may need attention. Our final reports tend to result in concrete actions that align with business improvement as the key factor.  Everyone understand the need for occasional review. Let CRT show you how we do these reviews . Call CRT for a confidential conversation.

Message delivery, Audio/Video techniques, church office management and community awareness are all very important parts of most ministries.

CRT staff will help align your technology to your goals. We have some very creative ways to use some low cost / free tools to propel your efforts forward. We speak plain English so board members can make decisions that are well understood and produce measured results.

Don’t let technology limit your message; call CRT for unbiased suggestions on your system.

Most technology does not automatically provide efficiency gains.  Measurement must be employed and  audited to confirm usefulness.  Most technology budgets are small and often represent unexpected cash expenses. It may be surprising to learn that buying new technology is not an automatic answer to this challenge. CRT is well schooled in presenting multiple ways (and cost points) to improve a business process. CRT staff understand business processes as well as technology. Call CRT for a 1 hour review of your situation to see what might be on the horizon.
