We have been talking a lot about B2B Integration and how to maximize your investment in automation, but what happens when you’re trying to automate but your trading partners aren’t as eager and don’t call you back? There are so many numbers referencing the cost savings of automating your orders, invoices, payments, etc., for example, in a recent Vanson Bourne Study, 53% of respondents still use Fax/Mail to send and receive their transactions.
The first quarter of 2014 has come and gone, for me it seems like it flew by. We have been busy at REMEDI launching some new initiatives this year as I am sure you've seen with our new blog strategy. In addition to that we're in the process of creating and launching some new videos.
“I took a lower paying position during the down turn. How do I search for a new opportunity?”

Have you been inspired by someone brilliant recently? Spring has arrived on the calendar and it reminds me of a conference I was invited to this time last year by friends that I respect in the business community. We are always looking for opportunities to sharpen our business acumen and extend our circle of influence. We knew one of the presenters was cited by Meetings and Conventions magazine’s as “One of the best keynote speakers ever heard”, putting him in the same category as Bill Gates, General Colin Powell and Tony Robbins.
