Feed back to them on the phone “So what you are saying is, that pink elephant sprouted wings, but it was completely unable to jump over that tall building?” Use the same words and phrases the customer used, to ensure clear communication. Make sure you answer every point raised, even if the answer is “I don’t know” or “I can’t answer that”.

Volunteer Scheduling System

Rotunda Software

“LiveCode has been an excellent choice for our client side platform. It has enabled us to create a powerful cloud based software application which is has become well established and used by over 2000 organizations to schedule thousands of volunteers daily”.

Many non-profits such as Churches, Health Clinics, Call Centres and Political Campaigns are dependent on volunteers for the activities they undertake. However the associated scheduling process is highly complex and if it is not done correctly can end up losing volunteers through mismanagement, poor communication and time wasting.
