AmericanHort social 2

This may seem odd, but I’m not totally on board with social media. I know, I know — how can I say that while I’m writing my second blog post this week, and will send it out on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn the moment it gets published? Fair enough. Let… Read more »

Ed Kless: On French Fries and Effective Questions

Questions in business

Someone once asked me how I get so much “insider” information from Sage for my blog posts, especially when it comes to Sage Summit. My answer was pretty simple: It’s not insider information. All I did was ask questions. Fortune favors the bold, and it’s amazing how much you can… Read more »

Sage Fixed Assets Added To Year-End Study Halls

Sage Fixed Assets Decon

Sage Fixed Assets is useful, yet often overlooked, title in the Sage family of business software. In a funny way, it reminds me of Wake Forest University. Stuck in a world with Tobacco Road big dogs UNC, N.C. State, and Duke, Wake Forest is the Little University that Could. While the… Read more »

Sage Summit 2017: The Return of Sage 500 ERP

Sage 500 at Sage Summit

“… some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend, legend became myth and for four and a half years, Sage 500 passed out of all knowledge …” With apologies to the screenwriters of The Lord of the Rings, and a slight apology to Sage, there’s good… Read more »

Industries of the Blind walks the path of lean manufacturing

Industries of the Blind Made in IOB

It’s said you can never truly understand a person until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes. Last Thursday, I walked about 500 feet in the shoes of a blind person, and I got a pretty good notion of what it was like to be visually impaired. Luckily for me,… Read more »
