PROJECT CUSTOMIZATION
MARKS can be customized to fit your needs. As you
probably already know, every club likes to do things their
own way. Even two VFW clubs will want to maintain and print
information differently. With Project Customization you can
request MARKS be changed to work the way you want and need
it to. Here is the way Project Customization works:
1) Pay the registration fee for MARKS
2) Send me:
a) your list of changes that you would like for me
to make to MARKS and/or
b) a description describing any new program or
programs you would like written (i.e. a new
report)
3) Prioritize your list of changes and new programs from
high to low (use 1 to represent the highest priority
-- those you want done first)
4) Include a PRINT SCREEN if you want a screen changed
5) If you want a report changed, include a copy of the
report with the changes requested clearly marked
6) If you want a new report or program, describe it using
a plain piece of paper
LIST OF CHANGES REVIEWED
After your list of changes are received, they will be
reviewed and returned to you with the following:
1) All changes okayed as requested and/or
2) Possible suggestions on how to do what you are
requesting another way that may even save you some
money, and
3) An estimate of what it will cost to make each change
If you decide to continue with the customizations,
you would then follow the steps listed below:
1) Return to me the list of changes clearly marking those
you want made (you can select all changes or only the
ones you are still interested in making)
2) Send me a check for the amount that covers the changes
you want made
After your payment is received, you will receive in the
mail a time estimate explaining when the changes should be
completed. Usually the changes can be done within a month,
but sometimes it will take longer depending on the number of
changes or amount of change and/or new programs requested.
HOW THE COST IS DETERMINED
Each change will be reviewed individually and assigned
a cost classification. The cost classifications are SMALL,
MEDIUM, and LARGE. The chart below shows the cost related
to each classification:
SMALL = $10.00
MEDIUM = $25.00
LARGE = $50.00
To help understand each cost classification, an example
of each is listed below:
SMALL - adding a field that already exist in MARKS to an
existing report
MEDIUM - changing the order information is printed on an
existing report and adding new report totals
LARGE - writing a new program
REFERRAL PROGRAM
The referral program is designed to keep cost down
for both you and me. To advertize in a magazine is very
expensive and very difficult to reach the appropriate
audience (plus word of mouth is always better). Therefore,
I have set up a Referral Program, and here is how it works:
1) Each time I receive a registration for MARKS and the
person says they were referred by you, I will give
you (your organization) 10 percent off your custom-
izations from that point on
2) The maximum number of referrals that can be counted
is 8 (up to 80 percent off your customizations).
For example, if you have 4 referrals credited to you
and the customizations you have requested total up to
$150.00, you would be charged only $90.00 (that is a savings
of 40 percent, 10 percent for each referral).
Remember, MARKS can be used by any club or organziation
such as VFW, American Legion, ELKS, Knights of Columbus,
PTA, Glass Blowing Club, Doll Collecting Club, etc. (just to
name a few).
SHIPPING and HANDLING
Each time you are mailed a diskette, you will be
charged $5.00 for shipping and handling. Most of the time
this fee will be included in the cost estimate.
PRINTING INSTRUCTIONS
If you would like a printed copy of the information
on Project Customization, follow the instructions below:
1) Exit MARKS and return to the DOS prompt
2) Place the INSTALL diskette in Drive A:
3) Turn on your printer
4) At the DOS prompt type:
COPY CUSTOM.DOC PRN
I.E. A:>COPY CUSTOM.DOC PRN
Note: you can print CUSTOM.DOC from your hard disk
drive by changing to the MARKS directory and entering
the same command.
