Do your systems talk to each other?
Find out how we get your IT communicating
Perhaps you have your contacts in one system, your marketing leads in another, your accounts in yet another…
…and all that information that should be making money for you is just making more work as you try to get it into some sort of order?
Are you fed up with having a business where nothing talks to anything else?
We make systems talk to one another.
Get Your Data Working
If your accounts package and your contacts are not on speaking terms. We can produce systems that get information out of one silo and shared (safely and securely) with your other systems.
A fantastic example is our Event Bridge product. Developed for a client, all the Eventbrite bookings were in Eventbrite. All the contacts were in Salesforce. Event Bridge brings the data out of Eventbrite, cleans it up and safely brings it into Salesforce.
Why clean the data? Have you noticed how people type things like ‘None of your business’, or ‘****’ instead of writing their job title or company name. We trap that and put in something sensible. Our flagship produce can be seen at: event-bridge.com

Spreadsheets are enough for my business – move on
Spreadsheets are wonderful. I have a load of them. Everything from personal ones that calculate my kg weight in stones and pounds (apologies to US readers) and my BMI through to things that help me calculate budgets and so on. I even have transient data in them, when...
Growing the Business in Interesting Times
Did you notice that the last 12 months has been interesting? Rather like that curse, may you live in 'interesting times'. For me, it has been a time of re-engaging with my lovely, lovely customers. A year ago, I gave up my staff, gave up the office, started working...
Training on Salesforce for free?
On of the advantages of the current crisis is that it has allowed us to meet virtually, at a moment's notice. No travel time. Distance is no longer an object. It is a tiny sop, out of a global crisis.. but it is very real. Running on cloud-based technology, my clients...
A heart to heart – what I learned from Lunch and Learn
One of the mind-games that I play as a business owner is that I am not good enough. That in many ways I have failed each and every client at some point in time. So, asking for a testimonial is only asking for trouble. This week, I held a ‘Lunch and Learn’. My...
I feel a change coming on. I have a vision.
These are odd times. To say the least. Many people have been furloughed or wondering what to do with their lives. Will they have a job? Are they happy with the job they have? With so much spare time, many people have taken this as a opportunity to think about their...

Cloud Genius checks your emails (from your website) are working
Most web hosters won’t admit it, but email from websites is a NIGHTMARE. It used to be really easy and cheap to set up email to send from a website, for instance when a form is filled in on the website inform the owner of the website. As it gets more complex, many...
Why do you pay people?
I recently heard a great story about a man with a hammer… bear with me as I have a more up-to-date version. The story starts with a submarine captain. His submarine is broken. This is a big problem. The submarine had a large crew. Every day that he was stuck in dock...
Passwords… and why you need to care
Let me tell you of an IT company. It had started off small so the director had chosen a favourite password ‘D0neit01' This was some time ago, so the fact that it had numbers in made it really secure. It wasn’t particularly long, but it was memorable. Much better than...
