When Don Green Sales Co. Inc., compares “the old days” of manually tracking sales and commissions to today with dynaMACS software, Marketing Director / VP, Finance Kelly Hodges says, “It’s like going from the Flintstones to the Jetsons.”

This busy agency doesn’t have time to waste on manual processes for entering data, tracking sales, reconciling invoices and paying commissions. Instead, it requires software that is automated, easy-to-use and reliable.

“dynaMACS has simplified our lives drastically, even with the thousands and thousands of invoices we receive each month,” Hodges stated.

Don Green Sales has partnered with MACS Software, creator of dynaMACS, nearly 20 years, and along the way has seen the software keep pace with the needs of manufacturers’ sales agencies and reps.

However, the agency did its research and looked at other Windows-based softwares before deciding to make the switch from MACS to dynaMACS. In the end, the agency selected dynaMACS. “The conversion was effortless, the Windows-based interface was simple and we didn’t have to learn another software,” Hodges said. She went on to say that by identifying unpaid manufacturers’ invoices, commission reconciliation has more than paid for the software’s cost.

The agency also uses dynaMACS Mobile so, “our salesmen are as current as the office is. Invoices are entered right away. The field knows about new sales so they can manage their territories effectively.”

Back in 2002, Ralph E Russell, a sales agency in the automotive hardware, industrial and agriculture industry, had had it with their old software. “It was a custom-written program, and there were so many glitches. Nothing was easy and we spent too much time fixing mistakes,” says office manager and operator Cathy Pierstorff.

All that changed after Ralph E. Russell Co. saw a demo of dynaMACS. Once the agency made the switch, tracking sales and commissions was never the same. “Once we used dynaMACS, we were hooked. We wouldn’t use any other software program for tracking sales and commissions,” Pierstorff says.

She was impressed that dynaMACS seamlessly transferred a year’s worth of sales and commission numbers from the old software. The agency didn’t lose any information, and Pierstorff says the software was so user friendly, the agency was up and running with no downtime.

“dynaMACS has made sales and commission processes more organized and less time consuming,” Pierstorff, a long-time dynaMACS user, says.

With dynaMACS, the Ralph E. Russell team has instant on-screen access to all sales and commission information. The agency can analyze sales trends, choose how they want to view information, calculate commissions and customize reporting.

dynaMACS gives us the ability to access sales information, sales trends and profitability accurately throughout the year. It’s a very valuable tool for our company, said R.E. (Butch) Russell.

When the team at Ralph E. Russell agency found dynaMACS, they found an efficient and easy way to analyze sales, pay reps and track commissions.
