Search Engine Journal has a new post up on When to Say Goodbye to a SEO Client. SEO is Search Engine Optimization for those of you new to that term. As I was reading the post about when to turn a client loose I was struck by how much of this applies to Dynamics GP clients as well. See if any of these sound familiar:
- Is the client serious about their success?
- Do they even want to understand what you are doing?
- Is the client only available when something is wrong?
- Are they not willing to take your advice?
- Do they expect the world?
- Is your time being undervalued?
- Are they trying to nickel and dime you?
Notice that none of this has anything to do with ERP in the source article. Bad behavior is bad behavior.
Here is the problem if you are a Dynamics GP user. If you fall into these behaviors you are not getting the most out of your partner or your implementation. It’s that simple. You are doing your company a disservice by being dysfunctional. Don’t handicap yourself by being stubborn, inattentive or cheap. Ultimately you are the one who suffers. Take responsibility for your system.
Read the whole thing to see how much you think applies to Dynamics GP.
