• KNOW your criteria– KNOW your BUDGET and let the vendors know it. If you can not

trust them with this figure, should not do business with them– KNOW your schedule and make sure the vendor is not too busy to

meet your schedule – UNDERSTAND your software criteria to choose the right file format

• Select the RIGHT vendor!– Give the RIGHT information– Ask the RIGHT questions– Cost is NEVER accurate over the phone or email, you are not

buying a PRODUCT, you are getting a SERVICE!• Referrals! Referrals! Referrals

– Referrals are always best, like in your own business!

merging, indexing, book marking, etc.– Each project is unique and one shoe does not fit all. The vendor should

have the capability, and willingness, to develop specific automation processes for specific clients

• Free Consultation– Vendors should be upfront, honest, and willing to give you free

consultation on your best option. This is not your area of expertise, dentistry is. If you do not get the right advice, you WILL make a mistake

• Long Term Association – A job completed successfully is the start of a new association, not the

end of it!
