Acorn Systems is a revolutionary concept in managing a company’s profits. They enable meaningful and sustained profit improvement by providing continuous enterprise-wide visibility into business performance. They do this with their profitability analysis software combined with their proven consulting methodology. It’s a great tool for doing Activity Based Costing (ABC).

Acorn Systems is able to accurately measure, optimize and predict costs, net operating profits, EVA, capacity and resources at any level of granularity such as by customer, supplier, product, facility, transaction and more. Essentially it takes all the data that you have captured and puts it in a usable format for company executives.

This type of technology is great for businesses working on maximizing profits. Of course, that’s EVERY business!!

My past posts on coupons and discounts to popular places like Eddie Baurer and Gap have been so popular that I’ve got more online deals, coupons and discounts for you. There are so many out there that soon it’s going to be standard for someone who wants to purchase an item online to do a search for coupons from that company. Today’s coupons and discounts come from Extreme Halloween, Target, 1800Contacts, Snapfish and Lerner.

Extreme Halloween Coupons
Target Coupons
1800Contacts Coupons
Snapfish Coupons
Lerner Coupons

How about that variety? A little seasonal coupons for Halloween, a little department store and some online photo coupons from Snapfish. I wonder how many people are paying full price to use Snapfish.

If you know anything about WordPress then you know that you absolutely have to use a number of WordPress plugins to be able to really enjoy blogging. Of course my top 3 plugins are Akismet, BAStats and WordPress Backup. Those are 3 plugins that shouldn’t even be in question. You need to get rid of spam comments, you need to have stats to enjoy it and you have to back up your wordpress database just in case.

Well, I found someone else who has 35 wordpress plugins on their site. That’s absolutely way to many. Take a look at this list:
