Software Update
Find abandoned accounts with Custom Grid Reports
Some MACC clients have accounts where the network tiers have been disconnected, or USPs have been outdated on those networks, but the account is still active. In the past, it’s been a little tricky to find those “abandoned” accounts. The good news is, we have a suggestion – use the Custom Grid Reports.

It’s not too late to plan for 2018
The new calendar on my desk confirms that somehow 2017 slipped away and 2018 is upon us. If you have your marketing plans for the year ready to go…that is great! However, if you’re like many folks and 2018 arrived before your plans are complete, there is still time to come up with some profitable ideas for the new year.
