MESSAGE: I just want to thank John for giving up some of his valuable time, at night at home to help me undo the mess I made of installing & updating. I had already talked with him earlier in the day, but ran into trouble later & sent a frantic text message for help. He ended up spending over an hour that same evening, at home, after "supper" helping me look through folders & files to get all the information I needed, including re-installing the entire program. Thank you so much. I've never had such awesome help. Makes me nervous about him leaving. Thanks so much John. Norma Simmons

John,

Thanks again for your help with my email problem. I also wanted you to know how much I enjoy using compudance. It's been very easy to learn. Thanks for writing such a great program.
Take care!

Hello John!

Perhaps you remember our last conversation....I do....we were discussing how a studio near you had "groves" of little ballerinas coming in and out of the studio during the day.....Anyway:
You will be thrilled to know that I am opining my SECOND location in an extremely pristine area of Virginia Beach Boulevard.

So, just as things are calming down from my first opening, I feel as though I am beginning over again with next to no capital, but with the excitement of a new beginning.

Incidentally, I believe I owe a great deal of my success to you and CompuDance and have been approached by other Dance Accounting software companies and would not change! I highly recommend because in almost five years I have never lost track of any money as well as the fact that you have always been there for me for computer support.

(You are welcome to use my testimonial!)

Just a thank-you for your fine support, and I will certainly let my colleagues across the country know about you. I will probably be trying to update the end of this month, and may be in touch for help (Old computer and all...).

Again, thanks for being such an integrity minded company, it shows!

Hi John,

Holly here, from center Stage Dance Academy in Rolling Hills Estates, California. I Just wanted to say "Thank You!" for your wonderful help and supportive instructions with my little 'postings' glitch today (June 9, 2005). You walked me so fluidly through the steps to correct my problem (which was self-induced). Not only did you help me with the problem I called about, you also helped me with suggestions on how to get more out of my program, and asked me specific questions about my use to facilitate that effort.

Thank you so much for your time. I think CompuDance is awesome. I have been using this program for 6 years and plan to continue as long as I own the studio!

Sincerely,

Holly Jones

Hi John

I received the manual yesterday Oct 27. Thank you for re-sending the info. I am really enjoying version 7. You have a great product on the market and I will let everyone know about it. Thanks again.. Ron and Robb

Hi John,
     First I just wanted to say Thank You, Thank You, THANK YOU for helping me with my many questions as I learn to use CompuDance and its many attributes. I learned about your program from a customer of yours at a seminar this past summer for improving dance and music studios (sorry I didn't get your customers name).

     We had been using DanceONE for about five years (prior to that we did everything by hand - Ouch!). CompuDance is much more powerful and useful in its ability to manage all studio information. Set up is fairly straight-forward (the manual very helpful). Two things I REALLY appreciate are your tech support (phone & email) and your free updates for those who own & use the program. You have been exceptional in getting back to me in a timely manner always. Your competition charges what I consider an unreasonable amount for updates which only seem to come out annually (or longer). Hi Praise for you and the service you provide!!!       Again, many thanks for all you do! I would HIGHLY recommend your program to all other dance and music studios!

Thanks for the update. We are really enjoying the program.
It has cut off years of work when the studio was on paper. Thanks again!

Dr Clifford,
I want you to know how much I appreciate your help and assistance last
Wednesday evening. Your calm, helpful attitude, even though you were trying to prepare for that rare “vacation” was very much appreciated.
I’ve been a subscriber to COMPUDANCE since 1992 and you have always been very helpful and considerate. You and your program make a novice feel like a “Whiz.”

I hope you had a very pleasant time at the coast. Perhaps on my next
trip to visit my bother in SA we can have that cup of coffee.
Again, thank you very much.

Hi there!

I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed using CompuDance. From basic lists to accounts receivable to recital preparation, it is an invaluable tool in managing a successful dance operation. Someone definitely did their homework when writing this software...I'm not sure there is anything "dance" related that this program CAN'T do!

Thanks again!

    Dear John,

    Enclosed please find $6.00 for the updates. Thank you for returning my call so promptly regarding the website.

    John, also thank you for creating such an incredible program for the dance industry. I have a medium-size dance school that I run by myself. I do all the choreographing, teaching, bookkeeping, costume selection/ordering and show production. I am also a new mom so my time has become even more valuable.   CompuDance has saved me soooooo much time and made my professional life much more manageable. Now I have more time for my #1 priority - my family.

    I look forward to receiving the updates soon.

    Sincerely,

Carma
