"From a managerial standpoint, it is a wonderful feeling to be able to concentrate on sales and strategy and know that your sales staff is humming along with no data entry snafus to slow it down.

From an accounting standpoint, it has been a great relief to know that I can count 100% on our numbers being completely accurate.

I have been extremely pleased with Pre1; from the SmartPublisher software to the support provided by the Pre1 staff."

"After 10 years of few upgrades and patchwork operations of our Baseview publishing system, SmartPublisher presented an opportunity to improve our

business. In just a short time we have seen results.

Volume is the key to classifieds, and SmartPublisher’s contact management capabilities have significantly affected our efficiencies and ability to follow up on accounts. Now with any rep turnover, we won’t lose crucial account history."

Randy Correll
Marketing Manager/NUVO

"The level of customer service Pre1 provided the Bay Guardian is superior to any other vendor I’ve worked with.

Moving from SunType to SmartPublisher was a great decision. The Bay Guardian sales staff has found the functionality of the system to be very intuitive and easy to learn.

As a manager, I enjoy the ability to do any kind of sorting

or reporting I want in just a few key strokes."

Jody Colley
Director of Advertising/
San Francisco Bay Guardian

"SmartPublisher quickly and easily schedules Display and Classified ads for any section of the paper - and allows fast access to each account’s financial history.

Having our Display and Classified advertisers and prospects in one database is great.

We love the reports and the seamless flow into QuarkXPress and HTML is fantastic."

Sara Kramer
 Advertising Manager/Catholic Sentinel + El Centinela

"There’s a big difference between our old system and Smart-Publisher; Baseview was an ad-taking system and Smart-Publisher is an ad selling system.

If you can afford to be passive and wait for ads to come to you, other systems may be fine. But, to be competitive, sales reps have to aggressively sell and that’s what SmartPublisher helps accomplish with its integrated CRM. In addition to tools for reps, sales managers can easily monitor the selling and prospecting activity for any rep."

"My sales are up 54% in the 8 months since we started using SmartPublisher for CRM. I can't credit the software entirely, but it significantly helped my time management and made it easier for me to keep track of what I'm doing and needed to be doing."
