Black Ant Sports
Marketing- Jetrus Collins.
Overview
Black
Ant Sports Marketing is a Chicago-based marketing firm that started up
in early 2007. The company provides sports marketing services for
various sports affiliated companies and leagues, including the NFL and
NBA. Although they are a growing small business, the firm requires
efficient collaboration within the workspace.
Challenge
Prior to
HyperOffice, Black Ant Sports Marketing solely relied on email as their
means of communication. They soon realized their hectic email system
was not working for them. The time spent waiting for approvals and
making sure the team members were working off the most updated version
was just a waste of time. The company decided it was time to look into
collaboration solutions.
Solution
As a growing business, Black Ant did not have a large budget,
or much time to spend for set-up, so they had to keep their options
realistic. Black Ant chose HyperOffice because it is not only
affordable, but is ready to use within minutes. Now, Black Ant Sports
Marketing can simply use shared documents instead of emails. A lot of
time was saved because of HyperOffice; time that can be used towards
their core business.
How Tom King
is Building His Company Around HyperOffice
On
May 1st, startup Exlabs officially entered
“dark mode” to develop “the next big
thing” for both individuals and enterprises alike. In order
to communicate and collaborate amongst their team members, they
researched and selected HyperOffice over the combined benefits of
Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft Sharepoint Server. Each month, Exlabs
founder Tom King shares how HyperOffice is Exlab’s
path to greatness from “Day One” without requiring
IT administrator knowledge.
Here is what Tom King
has to say for this month:
If you are a Windows Vista user like me,
you’ve been waiting
for the new version of HyperShare to bring your HyperOffice and
Microsoft
Office (2007) worlds together. I
am also
looking forward to some of the new enhancements offered by this new
version of
HyperShare.
