A Word Processing Survey

Do you remember when every businessman (or so it seemed) had a secretary? How about centralized word processing departments? Now, with a PC on practically every desk, everyone is his or her own secretary/word processor.

If your employees use computer programs, are they being used to your best advantage? Quite a bit of your time and money went into the computer equipment and software you have. Are you getting the most out of it?

Read through and answer the questionnaire below. It’s been designed (admittedly a bit tongue-in-cheek) to see if you are using the powerful tools included with today’s most popular word processing programs. Enter 10 points for each “Yes,” 3 points for each “No.”

Now add up your points. If you score 70 or above, you’re up-to-date. If you score less than that -- you need to contact us. You aren’t getting your money’s worth from your software.

All kidding aside, features such as Templates and AutoCorrect (among many others) can make document creation simple and easy. The problem is, you have to learn a lot you don’t need before you find out how to do what you want to -- the easy way. That’s where kamper.com comes in. We turn your one-eyed monster back into a useful tool.

Our experience allows us to focus on the specific features in your program(s) which offer the most benefit to your situation. We then teach you/your staff the skills needed to use those features to your greatest benefit. Interested? Call kamper.com at 520 / 751-0061 to set up your Needs Assessment today!
