Say goodbye to cluttered workspaces, desktop screens, and manual processes. Scheduling technicians using whiteboards, email systems, and online calendars is made obsolete with modern dispatch software. According to Salesforce, 52% of service companies are still doing things manually, and this presents a great opportunity for companies to take advantage of our software to gain that competitive edge. By implementing our dispatch scheduling software solution, your dispatchers can efficiently manage technicians in the field: selecting them for the type of work, routing them to customer sites, reassigning, and tracking them – all from one screen. With our intuitive, easy-to-use dispatch software, drag and drop tickets to schedule and then easily dispatch a technician and send them all the relevant information with just one click. Full integration with Payroll and Accounts Receivable allows work orders to be processed and approved the same day, effectively speeding up the billing cycle and eliminating the need for double entry. Join us on Thursday, June 10th at 12 pm EST for a 30-minute Masterclass on how Jonas’ service dispatch software can help streamline your scheduling. What will be covered: -Setting up and customizing your dispatch board according to your needs -Creating tickets and sending new jobs […]

When should I start marketing my game? What can I do to get more wish lists? What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? This is the kind of question we PR and marketing people get all the time (well, maybe not the one about swallows). Nothing can guarantee success -- but there are a lot of ways to guarantee failure. One of them is not taking marketing seriously enough -- doing too little, too late. Another is thinking you cannot put a marketing strategy in place without lots of money. Let's chat about what marketing is really about: understanding your audience, finding the best ways to reach out to them, and having fun making them part of your story. Antonio Santo is the Founder and Director of Jaleo, a PR, marketing and consulting agency for indie games. After years of working as a journalist specialized in culture, technology, and video games, he decided to switch to the Dark Side of PR to sustain his bad habit of eating three times a day and paying the bills. Since then, he's worked with indie hits such as Gremlins, Inc., Battle Brothers, Dyson Sphere Program, and bigger games such as Mount […]
