"has been a game-changer for us."

"Empowering our sales team with ASK-CRM was one of the most important strategic moves we made in 2014.  We are a mid-sized community publishing group that has always had an excellent sales team.  As publisher, I've been looking for a simple way to increase our market share, accelerate our digital revenue and cross-pollinate sales across departments. It is simple to use, integrates seamlessly with our front-end system and Robin Smith and his team are constantly innovating to make the software even better.  

This system is designed with our sales team in mind and has been a game-changer for us.  As we add to our portfolio of newspaper, magazine and digital products, ASK-CRM is keeping us organized and focused; even as our business becomes more complex to manage.  It also offers great continuity when sales team members are out of the office.  

Going live with the system was easy.  We actually implemented the system and trained our sales team during our peak summer selling period and it was no problem at all.  We had previously used Salesforce but it was not integrated with our front-end system due to the additional costs of doing so.  With ASK-CRM, integration was included in our affordable one-time setup fee. 

With this tool in place, revenue was up 11% last month and our digital revenue is now up over 53% compared to what we did during the same period last year.   

I highly recommend ASK-CRM and can't thank Robin and his team enough for helping us drive revenue."

“ASK-CRM has become THE way all AIM newspapers go to market.  The ASK team is responsive and has helped contribute to real process improvement.  That’s one reason we just renewed for another 3 years and added our AIM Indiana and AIM Midwest newspapers as well!”

Stephan Wingert, Publisher & Regional Vice President, AIM Newspapers

“We are THRILLED with the ASK-CRM system.   They did an outstanding job and the team is really on board.  We made the right decision here, no question.  Great stuff!  This is a game changer. ”
