Jim McCommon---Control the Process

 

“Our goal is to triple our business without adding additional staff.  System 1 acts

as a contact manager, tracks credit history, and automatically produces my lease

documents---eliminating costly and time consuming type and filing.”

   Jim McCommon, McCommon Leasing Co., Seattle, Washington, 1997

His reaction today:

 

“I think the quote was in the System 1 context. Seems like the attorneys and accountants grew along with us, one of the signs of success????. FTE staff is still the same as it was and the System1 product works better for us today that in did

in 1997.  Cliff, John and the rest of the Capital Stream folks did a super

job for our industry. Jim Buckles is carrying on a great tradition.

 

 “A small broker/lessor fights the overhead enemy every bit as aggressively

as do the big players in our industry. Automated office systems are a huge

solution to that war. Our industry is generally a late adopter of technology

changes, but this one was a smart move for everyone. We routinely attach

photo and document files to each customer record and have linked the

Advantage version onto our accounting systems. The results are easy to see

........  we have FEWER file drawers in our office today than we did in 1997

and yes we did more than triple our profits.”
