Is Your Software Bitchin? Then You’re Probably Paying Too Much.

There’s this show that I enjoy. It’s called “Bitchin’ Rides.” It is basically about this guy Dave that restores and transforms old cars. Ask him to transform an old car and you’d be getting nothing short of a classic car on the outside. The insides are transformed into a super modern state-of-the-art car and so is the underneath!

I couldn’t stop wondering how much people paid for these amazing works of art. Dave doesn’t make his prices public, but word got out on a couple of them, and they begin at around $100,000. He once worked on a car for $400,000. I couldn’t believe that someone would willingly let go of such an amount for a makeover when they could buy a Ferrari.

Of course, a makeover from Bitchin Rides would stand out even next to an original 1970s Chevelle that some guy restored in his garage.

We’re the ’70s Chevelle that costs $25,000.

It is a nice car. You’ll walk around with your chest out when you get out of that thing.

The same can be said about our software. People who need custom software believe that it always has to be expensive. There are companies that would rather spend $50,000 on something that could be done for $5,000 because they develop everything from scratch. They work with an IT company that writes code and thinks it has to be done that way.

Custom software versus Customizable software

You can save a whole lot if you don’t try to build software from scratch. This is basically what we do at P2 Automation, whether it’s CRMPlus365 or P2xRM or even Power BI. We begin with a canvas that already has a drawing on it instead of a blank canvas like we did in the past.

At P2 Automation, we are all about finding for our clients a happy medium where they can get a really good quality product at a fraction of the cost of building it themselves or having it built from scratch.

Now, you know who to talk to if you are in need of affordable CRM software for your small business. Contact P2 Automation at (833) CRMPlus or sales@p2automation.com
