Enough Buzz What is Marqui?

You already have a computer and a connection to the Internet. You are reading this.

Welcome to the Internet!

This is the basic requirement in the 21st Century to that enables you to extend the reach of your business beyond your neighborhood for your products or services.

The memo is pretty much dead having been replaced by email. More and more business is being done at a distance, from customer management, sales force management, employee management, and communication with your customers, your people and vendors.
Communication is vital in your business, from designing, to manufacturing, offering your products and services, to display, to announcement, to delivery and sale. In each of these areas, there are folks in your company that are already involved in these steps.

Marqui is a Communication Management System. It is designed to use a workflow process, which you have in your business right now. Marqui is a subscription service, just like your internet connection, your uniform service, and the business publications and newspapers you subscribe to. Each of these services provide you value. The value is determined by how you use them.

I am hoping that you already have a website.

This will enable you to better understand the basic concepts of managing your company communication with a service like Marqui.

Over the next few weeks I will be ripping the cover off and seeing how it does what it does. If it does not make communication easier I will let you know. If it does I will pass that on as well.

The idea of managing your business communications from one application is seductive. From weekly meeting emails, to press releases, to integrating your message to your website and to your customers, is an idea that many companies have tried to provide. Marqui is the new kid on the block.

I am not a copywriter, an advertising agency, or even a Marqui User. I am a web designer, computer builder, network designer, builder and technical support guy.

This site is going to look at Marqui from the standpoint of 1. the user, 2. the manager, 3 Implementation and maintenence.

Why? Because I do not recommend any product without using it to the point of breaking it. If I do not know how it works, and what to do if something bad happens, it isn't going to do you any good.

So stay tuned.
