Welcome to the May 2011 edition of the SWKInsider
Prepare for the Future by Staffing UpBy Jeffrey D. Roth, CEO
So the first quarter of 2011 was pretty good,huh? Compared to 2009 and 2010, most of usare feeling cautiously optimistic (lately).Things aren't great (yet), but we're all a bitmore positive, right? Whether this hashappened to your company already or ifbetter times are still around the corner, listenup! At some point we all have to staff up andprepare for what's ahead. In a professionalservices firm like SWK, this is important andthe timing of it is nothing short of critical.
Many wait to staff up until it's too late andrefuse to properly prepare. This helps cashflow, but usually it has a very negative side effect: being rushed whenhiring someone you really need, and need quickly. What usuallytranspires is that you hire someone who isn't exactly what you need(strategically), but fills a short-term need.

DCWarehouse Automation and MAPADOC have
teamed up to provide an end-to-end solution for
Sage MAS ERP 500 that eliminates the need to
re-key data into several software applications.
EDI orders automatically populate the
DCWarehouse Sales Order Entry Screen with
important customer, product, ship-to and
tracking information. Your warehouse personnel
can then pick, pack and ship these orders seamlessly in real time with
wireless devices, providing accurate information in Sage MAS ERP
500. And, when products are shipped, not only can you print the
ASNs, but the data then moves flawlessly through MAPADOC to send
856 EDI Data to your customers.
To learn more about how DCWarehouse Automation integrates with
MAPADOC for Sage MAS ERP 500, contact James Payne at 973-758-
6112 or [email protected].
New Case Study: MAPADOC KeepsdreamGEAR at the Top of its GamedreamGEAR is all about playing games and MAPADOC has beena real game changer.
To remain competitive in the distribution channel, dreamGEAR needed
to move from an outsourced EDI solution to an internal system that
would increase productivity, cut processing time and interface with
Sage ERP MAS 90.
MAPADOC won the game based on our customer service, provenprocesses and years of experience working with hundreds of clients in
many industries. Before implementing MAPADOC, one full-time
dreamGEAR employee was required to handle the tasks involved in
processing EDI.
"We literally cut the time spent on EDI processing in half," says
Accounting Manager Olivia Arevalo. "We are saving money and time.
We can use the time saved in other vital areas of our operation."
A new case study on the MAPADOC-dreamGEAR installation is
available for downloading.
Companies like yours want to pass go and collect all the money it can,
so call us today to find out more about how MAPADOC offers the
industry's most complete EDI solution. You'll win the game and the
grand prize.

Dear Kathleen:
I need to hire, but to qualify for HUD zone, I need to hire people wholive in two specific towns near my business. Can I run an ad sayingthat only those who live in these two cities need apply? Am I openingmyself up for lawsuits?
