Google a sales tool that is called Shark. I used it for many years when I was selling. I am sure you will find exactly what you are looking for there.
Excell is a good tool, but you are looking for sales help not bookkeeping I think.

i don't think sales help is the problem. sounds to me like he is looking more for production planning tool, and possibly some sort of inventory management & order fulfillment deal.

i would like to help, but it is not my area of expertise. i would think a well planned and organized spreadsheet would help a lot.

sorry.

i bent my wookie

zach's got it.

there is a trick to selling at these shows though.. the more you have in a group, the more you will sell. also the more options you have, the more chances you have of selling more work.

Eben -

Build and store all your information in a database. In the long run you'll be thankful...

I don't think a database is necessary. As Zacs said, this is really about production planning...

Nebe, buy me a Taco and I can help.
