Topic: Making the Case for FileMaker, presented by Jason Fiske, FileMaker Business Account Manager
During this meeting, Jason will discuss the importance of developing a compelling and effective case study or Return on Investment analysis of existing or proposed FileMaker based solutions. He will review several ways in which empirical data can be used to describe the benefits of a given solution. Examples include, time saved, opportunities created, risks managed or avoided and standards that can be complied with. Additionally, this session will provide guidance on how to determine what the most important internal metrics for success are. He will describe and show real world examples of successful internal presentations that resulted in huge improvements in quality of life and access to resources for those FileMaker advocates that prepared and presented these case studies.
