We use Microsoft Excel to create a detailed price list showing the cost price, markup and margins and retail prices.
This price list contains fields which can change and automatically update the prices as well as hidden columns so they can be printed and given to customers as a retail price list.

In PowerPoint we create a presentation about the benefits and cost savings by using a filter cooler instead of buying bottled water.
Microsoft PowerPoint helps you design the flow of information that you present to your audience in a logical order.
The PowerPoint course case study includes graphic images and dynamic graphs which demonstrate costs and savings when comparing the use of bottled water in the office vs filtered and chilled water from FreshFlow.
Microsoft Office Word Training Course
In Microsoft Word we explore mail merges that can be used to send filter cartridge replacement letters to customers.
Microsoft Word is used to create flyers and menus for local businesses as well as long form and complex proposals, quotes, information memorandums and other documents.
You’ll receive samples of these documents in the online Microsoft Word course.

Microsoft Office Outlook is known for emailing but has powerful time management and productivity use with the Calendar, To do list and Task Management.
All of the tools in Microsoft Outlook will help you become organised as well as help you organise the staff members you’re involved with.
Task management will help you acheive your goals in the desired timeframe while the calendar will help all team members know where they need to be all the time.
