"How GenesisFour Nearly Doubled My Income."
Darren Dubbledee
operates a one-man shop in Larchwood, Iowa called Advanced
Transmissions. He works totally by himself (his shop voicemail
says "I work alone, can't always get to the phone".) Darren has
been running is shop on GenesisFour software for 7 years, and
was convinced of the merits of time management by GenesisFour
back in 1996. Today Darren swears by his software, and in
particular, by the incredible benefit of using the time
management features incorporated in it. In a recent conversation
Darren had this to say:
"GenesisFour makes more money than any other single tool
in my shop. I used to only be able to hit about $5-6,000/month
working 60 hours a week. Now I can hit $10-$12,000 a month, even
$14,000 some months working right about 50 hours a week. That
means I doubled my income, and I am working less hours. Ya know,
I like to go fishin' too, and in spite of the fact that I love
my business (I didn't so much before GenesisFour got hold of
it), I'd rather be doin' that. Now, I can, and I do.
Basically what I was loosing before was time I just didn't bill.
Now, I don't have to work any harder whatsoever, and I make
about five grand a month more than I did. How's that for a
return on investment? The payback in one month was more than the
software cost me. Sorry, but it's a no-brainer.
From the time I first contacted GenesisFour, for reasons I
can no longer understand today, I waited 9 months to make a
decision. I figure that cost me over $40,000. How long are you
gonna wait?"
