Industrial Revolution

I bought a business on April 1, 2005. I'll update the blog a few times a week to share some of my experiences.

UPS and technology

We've been rapidly upgrading the technology level at the factory. Instead of one email address for the company (jammed with spam), we've now got individual accounts (with spam filters). Several of us (rather than one) have access to the accounting system, allowing us to each do our jobs, from paying bills to processing orders to maintaining proper inventory levels.

Next on the hit parade is shipping. The UPS guy told me yesterday that of the 65 companies he supports, we're the last one to be using the hand-written book for shipping. The sales rep for their computing system will be out today.

Everything is going very well. April far exceeded my expectations. May was better than April.
