Unlike CiviCRM, which is targeted to nonprofits, SugarCRM is a system targeted toward sales in for-profit companies. The first one is one that I’ve been using recently for my consulting business – SugarCRM. It has three versions: Enterprise, Professional, and Community Edition. That’s the one I’ve been using.

One of the most important roles I play is educating clients about the technology that they will be engaging with, based upon what I’ve heard while I’ve listened. Listening, both at the beginning, and consistently through an engagement, to their goals, ideals, “points of pain&# , and points of confusion.

I have some great clients, and I feel like I get to be an educator – I spend lots of time educating my clients on the ins and outs of the varied technology issues presented (and what is, and is not a technology issue.) And, I think I also get to educate the varied vendors and developers I’ve been in contact with.

I think of myself in these terms: I educate, facilitate, mediate, and problem-solve. I’d also love to consult with for-profit vendors who are thinking about dipping their toes into offering support for open source projects, or open sourcing their software. And, I guess truthfully, the blurb on my consulting site is kinda dry.
