Sometimes it seems like technology is moving at warp speed. Forty years ago people walked around with giant boomboxes so they could listen to music. When Sony's Discman came on the market in 1984 it was a huge advancement. Smaller and lighter, it made carrying your tunes with you so much easier. Teens today would laugh at that statement. They can't remember a time when they couldn't carry an entire library of songs in their pocket. Corded telephones are another good joke for them to laugh at. The very idea of being tethered to a single base while talking on the phone sounds crazy. Most members of this generation have had their own cell phones since their pre-teen days.
Unfortunately, that crazy pace of technological advancement doesn't always pan out. Where are the hoverboards that we saw in Back to the Future? When it's science fiction that hasn't come to fruition it's understandable. Creativity often outpaces reality. In other cases, promises are made as technology is being developed and then the product fails to deliver. Some people may try to spin that as marketing hype and consider overselling a part of business. If you're the one buying, it can seem like a scam and a be a huge disappointment.
So, how do you get the most for your money without being taken in by slick marketing? Keep reading for some tips and learn how Stockpile free quick inventory solution can help.
Research, Research, Research
We can't stress this enough. Before you invest in any technology do your homework. Don't just read the flashy product description on the company's website. Search for customer feedback. Check online forums, vendor sites that collect customer comments, and the Better Business Bureau. If you find lots of unhappy customers that could be a red flag that the product fails to deliver.
Get to Know the Company
When you buy a product for your business you want to be sure that it's going to work the way you expect it to and that you can get help if and when you need it. Don't just view the product page and the sales process. Look into the customer support process as well. Do they provide a number for you to call or do you have to rely on e-mail and online chats? If something isn't working properly you want to know that you'll be able to reach someone who can help quickly.
Be Realistic
Of course, we'd all like to have magnificent products that cost us very little money. Unfortunately, there are very few gems like that out there. (Stockpile just happens to be one, but we'll get to more on that in a minute.) Be reasonable in your expectations. Check out the competition so that you know what you should expect this product to provide. If a company is touting features that seem too good to be true, your gut could be trying to tell you something.
Speak Up!
If a product isn't performing as promised, don't hesitate to let the company know. You can't sit back and expect them to reach out to you. If you have a problem with something you purchased you need to let them know. Remain calm and provide concrete examples of the issue. Outline what you'd like them to do about it as well. If you leave it up to the vendor to decide how to resolve the problem they are likely to look for the easiest, and cheapest solution. Be specific about what you'd like and be prepared to compromise if necessary.
