I'm actually looking forward to a few hours sitting down with no internet access and a dead laptop battery. I have bought the new Lindsey Davies Falco mystery and I am not afraid to use it. I have an iPod with the rest of Primeval S2 and TW on it and I'm not afraid to use that either.
I am so insanely busy at the moment it's not even remotely funny. I have closed 2 deals this week and have 3 more bids getting ready to go out, plus numerous other items in the pipeline. What I do not have time for is the Germans entering duplicate Opportunities into our Sales CRM so they can track the stuff of interest to them separately.
THAT DOES NOT HELP GUYS! Hello! Is this thing on? Tap. Tap?
What's the point of them micro-managing their own items in the database when I'm the account owner and won't be updating their duplicates. Actually, what I have been doing is deleting the duplicates.
The do have a semi-valid point that there should be a way to track some of this stuff but creating your own system without just asking the IT guys to make the right changes (which should be a simple thing on Salesforce, is just dumb. For really large, "let's try running the reactor without the coolant" values of dumb.
Tracking a sales pipeline is hard enough, having a group creating duplicate, seprate entries that aren't actually real, just distorts things.
