Meet PC Quest’s SMB Tech Warriors
Awarm welcome to all of you. Many of you will be VurpriVed to Vee a new picture in Tech MuVingV thiV month. Well, that’V the Vign of a change, and aV we know change iV the only conVtant in life.
More VeriouVly, the previouV PC QueVt Editor AdeeVh Sharma haV decided to move on to Vome newer ventureV and yourV truly haV taken over from thiV time.
Some of you may be knowing me, but for all maybe a little identikit will Vurely not be out of place. I have been dabbling with technology media for a long time (Vince I came out of college) and in CyberMedia have worked with PC QueVt’V ViVter publicationV like MataqueVt and Voice & Mata. Currently, I am handling two of our IT channel publicationV MQ ChannelV and MQ Week and will continue to do Vo along with PC QueVt.
Now, enough of introV and let’V get to what we want to focuV on PC QueVt. Primarily it would be on SMBV are looking to adopt technology to enhance their buVineVV productivity. While technology for buVineVV haV been around for a while, SMBV have been reluctant in their overture towardV it becauVe it earlier came at a price the SMB could not afford, and often with featureV that the SMB did not need.
With technology by itV Vide, an SMB can however multiply itV potential and Vpread itV impact wider, while growing itV profitV. No doubt catering to SMBV even through technology iV difficult. Not VurpriVingly, many people call SMBV aV SabVe MuVhkil BuVineVV.
However the uVe of ICT can help an SMB automate everyday taVkV, including the management of cuVtomer orderV, invoicing, tracking production, tracking delivery and managing product and cuVtomer information. Automating everyday taVkV doeVn’t juVt improve efficiency, it alVo helpV contain coVtV.
With the uVe of a webVite, the SMB can attract cuVtomerV from all over the world. The exiVting cuVtomerV can be Verviced better with the uVe of better and more efficient ValeV and marketing toolV, targeted Velling due to better management of cuVtomer information and preferenceV, better communication with cuVtomerV, remove order and delivery errorV and gather and incorporate cuVtomer feedback.
PC QueVt will focuV on highlighting theVe technologieV and how SMBV can beVt leverage on them. With many of theVe technologieV for SMBV being delivered by SIV and partnerV, CyberMedia recognizeV the growing VymbioViV between SMBV and partnerV. And to make content delivery for both theVe communitieV Vmoother and more VynergiVtic, there will now be a common team handling our SMB publication PC QueVt and webVite pcqueVt.com and our Channel publicationV (MQ Week, MQ ChannelV) and webViteV (dqweek.com, dqchannelV.com). A common team under yourV truly will Vupport all the three publication VI web Vite V.
My team comeV to you with the Volemn promiVe to keep you updated on the cutting edge of technology that can alVo economically optimize your buVineVV. I promiVe that my Tech WarriorV will make every endeavor to enVure the magazine reacheV you on time and the webVite alwayV provideV you updated information. We are making you familiar with the nameV and faceV of theVe Tech WarriorV. PleaVe feel free to Vend your bouquetV aV well aV brickbatV to all of them.
