MARKETING HOW-TO CONTINUED ...
As for this gifting season, we’ve been carefully putting new systems in place to make sure we can handle any volume that comes our way moving forward. The need is shaping up to be even larger than last year. I started receiving calls back in September from my contacts in the foster system, saying that many of their usual donors had already backed out for this year, so there’s a significant load to take on. Current projections are anticipating about a 50% increase already! One thing is for sure: When they start coming in, we’ll be ready. Will you?
performing at a high level, especially when faced with the kind of unprecedented numbers that flowed in. It has always been my goal to help as many children as possible, but I realized I was planning for the present, not the future. As it was, my organization could not have handled the scope of work I ultimately dream of taking on. The thing is that we all know it’s important to update our systems and processes regularly so we keep ourselves in a good position as our companies grow, but how many of us are actively doing that? It is far easier to proactively seek out solutions and prepare your business to handle the kind of volume you’re shooting for, not the volume you currently have. It is also far easier to procrastinate making those changes until they become urgent and force your attention. Don’t delay. There’s no shame in having a lifestyle business if that’s what you want, but if you hope to grow, make sure you have the things in place you’ll need to get there.

RESOURCE OF THE MONTH WHY G SUITE IS PERFECT FOR YOUR BUSINESS
No Matter Where Your Team Is Located!
What do Twitter, Spotify, and Whirlpool all have in common? They all use G Suite by Google to help run their business. We aren’t sponsored; we’re just in love. G Suite is very inexpensive compared to other software suites on the market. One study for Forrester shows that G Suite can provide: • A 1.5% increase in revenue • 171 hours (nearly 21 days) saved per user per year
TOP OF THE LINE SECURITY Admins of your G Suite can access authentication, asset projection, and operational control from one simple dashboard. G Suite blocks 99.9% of spam and business email compromise scams. And for businesses that have deployed a security key, there are zero (that’s right, zero!) reported or detected account hijackings. So you can sleep well knowing your data is in good hands. REAL TIME COMMUNICATION One of the most exciting original Google Docs features was its capability for simultaneous editing. You’d be amazed at how this functionality — simultaneous access, which is now available across G Suites products — can improve your company’s efficiency. From the ability to share and see your team’s calendars to commenting on spreadsheets and tagging team members, it’s easier than ever to be in the know instead of trying to catch up when it’s already too late. At The Newsletter Pro, we’ve been utilizing G Suite for years, but our love for it has grown since some team members began working remotely full time. We haven’t gotten out of our productivity groove at all, thanks to G Suite being super easy to use. We highly recommend it for businesses of any size!
• Over 95% reduced risk of data breaches • 20% reduction of on-demand tech support • 331% ROI Why such a drastic difference in performance?
