You're the "knowledge source" for your company. Now OfficeArrow can be your knowledge source.

As an office manager who reports to the owner of a mid-sized business, Cheryl almost feels like she "owns" the business. Her boss travels so much, she's left to "hold down the fort" while he's away. Employees are constantly coming to her whenever they have questions or needs. While she enjoys her position, most days she has to "go it alone" and sometimes she wishes she had an outlet to seek and share advice about office management.

"Through the OfficeArrow site, I was able to find some great ideas from other members on optimizing office supply procedures. By streamlining the process and switching vendors, I ended up saving our company 12% a year on expenditures."Cheryl Dobbins

One day while she was sorting the mail, she found a brochure about OfficeArrow. She liked what she read, so she visited their site online and perused their selection of business templates and their training library. After clicking on the Community tab, Cheryl was immediately drawn to the Discussions section. She asked a question on workflow management - a topic she had searched about - and quickly got an answer from a fellow office manager halfway across the country. She also liked they had specialized training courses from Learn.com, useful articles and tips for office managers, particularly the "Manage Your Boss" section, and the premium member discounts on webinars and other useful services gave her a way to justify having the company pay for it.

In light of the recent economic downturn, Cheryl was asked by her boss to expand the administrative function while maintaining the same annual budget. While this will definitely pose a challenge, Cheryl is confident she will find the resources and support she needs through OfficeArrow.
