Teasers
“Having the right systems really helps make sure you’re looking at accurate data, accurate financial information, accurate program information, etc.”
“Before we run out and get all excited and buy a bunch of new software that we may or may not use, I want you to look at what you already have and see if there are places where you can upgrade your existing subscriptions.”
