Managing Your Database

 

Learn to Manage Your Database...

Like a Pro!
Using Microsoft Outlook I'll show you how to make your database profitable
by simplifying, streamlining and helping you create dialogues to get in front of your customers.

How?  I create the perfect learning environment...

  • We cover exactly what you want to cover
  • Hands-on training on your own computer
  • One-on-One personalized training
  • We'll be going at your pace...not a "class room" pace
  • We have the flexibility to cover an area more in-depth for a clearer understanding
Get exactly the training you want and need when you want it...
All of my training is done one-on-one just between you, me and maybe your assistant.  I am extremely patient and won't use technology lingo that's difficult to understand.  I've trained young kids and sales professionals as old as 82.
 
Here's how it works...
We'll discuss your needs and then I'll send you an outline and the approximate time to complete the training. On the day of training I'll call you, we'll connect our computers (sharing desktops) and then we'll begin the training.  This is hands on training directly on your computer.
 
When you have questions, just ask...
It's just you and me so you'll be very comfortable to ask any questions you have.  We'll be going at the pace that is just right for you.  If we need to go over something again, we will.  The time is yours, and we'll us it to your advantage.
 
My fee is based on $40 an hour...
If you want a 15 minute session, we can do that.  30-minutes no problem.  We can cover more material in less time than in a traditional classroom setting.  I'm determined to make this  the best hands-on learning experience you've ever had.
 
Bonus...
Because the training is done directly on your computer, not only will you get training, we'll also be accomplishing some work for you, for example we may (depending on your training topic):
  • Create email, form letter and label templates
  • Get your categories set up just the way you want
  • Add and Remove display columns in contact views
  • Set up reminders for your routine tasks
  • Attach contact files to the contact form
The list can go on and on.
 
I've been providing training on MS Office since 1999...
I've taught thousands of sales professionals and staff (many with very little computer experience). I've conducted hundreds of online webinars and one-on-one remote training sessions.  I enjoy training and would love the opportunity to teach you.
 
All of my training comes with free tech support.
If at any time you need a quick "refresher" or have a question on the material we've covered - I'll show you again or answer those questions you have.
 
I would suggest that you...
Take 60 seconds right now to click on the topics that you think you might be interested in.  I'll call you - no pressure - and we can discuss the training topics you selected, and I can answer all your questions.

Testimonials...

January 28, 2009

1.      Bob Shonk, a Commercial Realtor in Texas wanted to learn the Power User Functions.
"Although I have used Outlook for years, I needed to get to the next level in its capability.  It can provide many functions that most users don’t ever uncover.  I needed Jeff to guide me through some of those power user functions.

2.     Jeff listened to what my specific needs were and knew exactly what functionality I was missing in my day to day use.  He mapped out a training class that I agreed to and then held a private on-line training session for me using my desktop and my clients for the training session.  Once we were finished I was immediately able to use the new skills."

Bob Shonk, Texas Commercial Partners  www.TexasCommercialPartners.com



"
Jeff has this knack to take something complicated, break it down into step-by-step instructions so it's easy for you to understand."

Kirsten H.,
Education Director at Lawyers Title


"The experience was like sitting down with a friend in a coffee shop and having that friend teach me the missing pieces of what I don’t know about Outlook.   I will continue to take more of Jeff’s courses.“
Lori D. John L. Scott


"The small group training feels like you are privileged among a select few...it's like having your own professional trainer."  
Kathy K., Coldwell Banker Bain Associates


"I was looking for exactly what the class covered, accurate name input in Outlook and the ability to create form letters."
Erik Noyd, Coldwell Banker Bain Associates
