LIVERMORE, CA — Activant Solutions has announced a series of workshops that will enable automotive parts distributors and jobbers to explore new features and productivity tools available in their Activant Prism software.
The company will sponsor Activant Prism user group meetings April 20-21 in Chicago, May 18-19 in Los Angeles, June 8-9 in Miami, and June 15-16 in Boston.
Activant user group meetings are designed to help customers maximize the value of their business management software by learning to use the latest features and functionality and sharing ideas with other aftermarket distribution professionals. According to the company, more than 85 percent of Activant user group meeting participants who responded to a survey reported that the events helped them learn more about their existing solutions, and 98 percent said they would recommend the experience to others.
“We got a lot of good stuff out of the user group meetings to take back and apply to our business,” said Scott Bennett, director of operations for Bennett Auto Supply, Inc., Pompano, FL. “A big part of the meetings’ value is the networking opportunities; I learned things from other WDs who have businesses like mine and who do things a different way.”
Participating in user group meetings and other training sessions ultimately can lead to a greater return on a business owner’s technology investment, according to Tom Aliotti, vice president and general manager of the Activant automotive group.
“Investing in a business management solution is an important first step in enhancing your competitive position,” Aliotti said. “Our user group meetings have helped hundreds of aftermarket professionals take the next step in maximizing the bottom-line benefits of their software.”
Each user group meeting is designed to maximize learning opportunities by encouraging the exchange of ideas during all scheduled activities, including the evening reception, hands-on training sessions and roundtable discussions.
