How To Sell It / Arrive at ROI • How much time do you spend…
– Exporting to Excel – Manual and repetitive cutting, pasting
• Could automation of these tasks… – Free up hours for key people in your business – Shift focus from preparation to analysis
• Calculate the hours saving in dollars – Hours saved X average cost per hour of person
• One good buying decision based on timely and accurate information, can translate into massive savings
