"How Business Owners Are Using Technology To Turn Their Toughest Business Challenges Into Competitive Advantages That Save Time, Cut Costs, Attract Customers, Increase Profits, And Grow Their Businesses Faster"

How much further ahead would you be if you could spend more time on the strategic work of growing your business and less time on day-to-day maintenance and problem solving?

Dear Business Owner,

Do you have a business problem that's constantly frustrating you, stressing you out, and holding you back?

Of course you do... we all do. That's part of business, and life in general.

But it's time to start getting excited about it.

You see, most of your competitors are probably struggling with the exact same problems.

Which means the first person to solve those problems is going to have a huge advantage.

It's the businesses that can consistently and innovatively solve their problems (and by extension their customers' problems) that end up at the head of the pack.

Everyone else has to play catch-up with the leader. And if you're constantly innovating, they'll never catch you.

What Would It Mean?

What would it mean to you and your business to have your biggest frustrations and roadblocks solved?

How much time would it save you every day if you didn't have to deal with this issue?

What would you be able to do instead?

The good news is there's always a solution to every problem, big or small, if you look at it the right way.

Sometimes it helps to have someone less involved in the business take a look.

Let me introduce myself...

My name is Phillip Theriault, and I've been helping business owners replace problems and roadblocks with efficient, streamlined software since 1993.

I build custom software with the belief that it should a) solve the immediate business problem and b) help the business overall fulfull its mission and move towards its goals.

Software that solves a problem but doesn't take the whole business into consideration is only a half-solution.

What Custom Software Can Do

In addition to solving the immediate problem, custom software should have some or most of the following traits:

  • Save time on mundane or complicated tasks, putting yourself and your employees to better use.
  • Save money by requiring fewer people working on those tasks and allowing them to do more important work.
  • Increase customer retention. If the system affects customers either directly or indirectly, can it improve their experience with your business?
  • Increase sales and profits. Can your software identify common issues with your customers and help you design new products and services for them?
  • Focus on business growth by helping reduce your involvement in day-to-day activities so you can focus on strategic work.
  • Provide marketing assistance. Even the most mundane software can provide you with a selling point your competitors don't have if it's solving a problem or helping you provide better service.
  • Provide extensive reporting and analysis tools to give you better insight into how efficiently the business is functioning in critical areas.

The more of these goals your software can meet, the faster it will pay for itself, over and over again.

Business vs. IT

Most software development is a clash between business goals and IT goals.

Business owners want to know the ROI.

IT developers want to build cool stuff.

Normally, the two don't coincide.

Here at Spellweaver Custom Software we're not just developers, we're business owners. And we understand what businesses need.

Our definition of "cool" is being able to increase ROI and make businesses more efficient.

If our software doesn't do that, it's not finished yet. And we'll keep going until those goals are met.
