RE: [azipa] Question for the AZIPA group members

[jkrist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Okay all, here's a shameless plug for my site. I'm the content manager for a
sales and marketing site so all the time I deal with the eternal/infernal
"software or business processes?" question. Check out this article:
http://www.saleslobby.com/OnlineMagazine/0700/channelmanagement_jwatkins.asp

an updated version of this will be on our site on monday, as well as some
other articles that at least partly address the original question.

You may also be interested in this, on the major differences between the
three major "hot" types of CRM apps for biz:
