Email Marketing Systems Provider, Zrinity, Continues to Grow in Slow Economy

Email Marketing Systems Provider, Zrinity, Continues to Grow in Slow Economy

Companies like Zrinity providing business mission critical systems that streamline business processes are growing through the slow economy. Web 2.0 business continues to grow according to email marketing firm, Zrinity.

Central New York (PRWEB) March 1, 2009 -- Zrinity, a Central New York based on-premise email marketing systems firm (http://www.zrinity.com), sees continued growth in the Web 2.0 sector. According to Zrinity owners, the economy is in a slump, but business owners continue to invest in new technologies that streamline their business and industry. Zrinity owners also credit their lean business structure for their continued growth. By keeping overhead low, such as conducting meetings through online meeting systems, Zrinity maintains a lean posture and has very low overhead. Web marketing, such as well-positioned Google rankings, produces a large percentage of the firms' new business, which is also a factor in low overhead and high profit.

According to Zrinity owners, Zrinity added many new customers in Q1 2009, which isn't over, as it did in the entire second half of 2008. Zrinity owners believe that growth will parlay into over four hundred percent (400%) growth in 2009. The underlying theme of Zrinity's new customers is that "there was always a team of experts conducting research that chose Zrinity, and a vast majority of the firms were Web 2.0 businesses."

Zrinity recently announced a more flexible licensing strategy that gives online retailers the ability to save budget dollars while better communicating with existing clients. The licensing suggests a more defensive posture for online retailers whereby they spend more time and resources on existing customers which cost less to keep than gaining new customers. First and foremost online retailers should shore up pre-existing customer relationships using transactional email marketing and up-selling.

Zrinity also released a new licensing model to help medium-sized business access high end email systems that are typically only used by large business in-house. In addition, Zrinity produced a YouTube® video which explains how medium-sized business can grow in this down economy by shifting from paper to electronic methods of invoicing, customer relationship management and more. The newer licensing combined with the more extensive use of transactional email marketing, saves medium-sized business customers millions every year. According to Rob Thrasher, VP Marketing, Zrinity, "Most business owners are not yet aware that 30% of each email sent in the regular course of business, such as invoices, can contain marketing messages. This provides a huge opportunity to up sell, cross sell and more."

Mother Nature, a New York City based "Natural Products" online retailer, has been working with the Zrinity team as online business consultants and a web-based software system provider since 2000. Oliver Clark, Chief Technology Officer, Mother Nature, recently selected Zrinity as his on-premise email marketing system. Mr. Clark commented that he selected Zrinity because, "I already know I can trust the Zrinity team to deliver on the results promised since we have known the team for over seven years."

The key functionality provided by the Zrinity system according to Mr. Clark is, "The deliverability metrics. The metrics are very comprehensive and without the metrics provided by the Zrinity system we couldn't really know how effective we are and if we do have any trouble, at which point in the email delivery process we are having the problem."

Medisoft Clinical EHR Software to Be Funded By New Economic Stimulus Plan

Medisoft Clinical EHR Software to Be Funded By New Economic Stimulus Plan

The economic stimulus plan signed by President Obama includes funding for the long awaited EMR software (also called EHR Software) (electronic medical records software, or electronic health record) for doctor's offices and can result in better patient care and treatment.

(PRWEB) February 28, 2009 -- Doctors wondered when the time would come that EMR software (http://www.medicalcharting.com) would bring their offices into the future. They suspected the government would pay for it and many have not purchased the software due to this. Today they found out that indeed the government will begin footing the bill for this state of the art Medisoft Clinical EHR software (http://www.medicalcharting.com/medisoft-clinical-medisoft-emr-software.htm).

Congress passed the stimulus package which is one of the largest ever. Over $20 billion is included in the form of grants and loans as well as other incentives to spur health care into the future by paying for the latest technology. This will be a large boon to the health care industry by providing doctor's offices and clinics with the software that will allow one click access to patient information.

MedicalCharting.com is an affiliate of Selent & Associates, Inc. Founded in 1989, this Port Charlotte, Florida company started as a general business services company. However, due to the vast background in health care related services, the company changed their focus to serve medical and physician offices and health care. Members of the Charlotte County, Florida Chamber of Commerce since 1988, this is a company that has committed to making the area of medical records a simpler process for health care providers.

MedicalCharting.com is a leading provider of integrated electronic health records software is thrilled that the health care industry will finally have access to the tools it needs to manage patient's electronic medical records. By providing funding for this crucial system, the health care industry is taking one giant step forward when it comes to the safety and security of the patients who depend on it.

While doctors have waited for this technology to be implemented for years the transition will be much quicker now that the government will be funding up to $64,000 maximum per provider.

The number of Medisoft users that will be affected by this stimulus program is around 80,000 and growing. The new software offered by MedicalCharting.com, called Medisoft Clinical EMR Software (http://www.medicalcharting.com/medisoft-clinical-medisoft-emr-software.htm), is designed for 1 -5 doctor practices. With the start of government funding, doctors are being encouraged to call and discuss the setup of this program for their practice and to help determine how much they can get reimbursed. With all the benefits of EHR software such as appointment scheduling, medical billing, prescriptions, lab results and more the safety of the patient is assured using this software more than ever before. Some of the primary benefits of adoption of Electronic Medical Records or EMR Software will be more accurate prescriptions, quicker diagnosis and treatment of patients, and saving of lives.

Harry Selent, President of www.MedicalCharting.com says "This EHR software (http://www.medicalcharting.com/index.htm) (Medisoft Clinical) will allow the doctors ultimate access to the patient's medical history and avoid the duplication of tests, medications and treatments. The patient's medications, vital information, documents and all treatments received would be in one place for ease of access by the doctor treating them, and no more problems of reading physician notes and prescriptions."

Excitement is high as this much awaited program is beginning to become more of a reality. MedicalCharting.com invites doctors to contact them to discuss the prospects of this groundbreaking new era in medicine.
