Erb’s recognized for achieving Cisco Channel Customer Satisfaction Excellence

Customer Satisfaction Excellence is the highest distinction a partner can achieve within the Cisco Channel Partner Program. Erb’s was recently recognized by Cisco for achieving this honor.

The Channel Customer Satisfaction Excellence assessment is based upon the customer satisfaction results received from the online surveys Cisco conducts with Erb’s customers.

We thank our customers for taking the time to complete the surveys and for their partnership!

Congratulations White Glove Movers
on Your Extreme Technology MakeOver!

Last October, White Glove Movers found out they were the winner of the $35,000 Extreme Technology MakeOver, courtesy of the Cedar Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce and Erb’s.

On January 15th, 2008, their Hiawatha, IA office was transformed from one computer, one phone and one printer to three desktops, one laptop, 5 phones, an MFP, a server, a Unified Communications system. . . . the list goes on and on.

We congratulate general manager Larry Milroy and the whole White Glove Movers team on this makeover and wish them much success!  Thank you to our Extreme Technology MakeOver sponsors HP, Lexmark, Cisco, IBM and Microsoft for their support!  See more at www.erbs.com.


Leveraging Technology Mitigates Risks, Controls Costs and Helps Meet Demands of Growing Businesses
By Richard J. Reiffer, Trivalent Group

As a small business expands, the need to manage this growth with updated technology should rate high on a company’s list of priorities. Should an organization experience rapid growth in a short period of time and fail to advance its technology to meet these new demands, the business owner may face significant challenges in the future, including loss of revenues, waning market share and adverse customer perceptions.

Incorporating the following tips into the company business plan will help ensure a smooth transition.
