“The partners had a meeting recently and saw on the balance sheet the ‘phone expenses’ was 50% less in the past year due to the many changes we have made. This was a $100K and doesn’t include the reduction in staff which has also been 50%. …we need less manpower to cover the circuits….The manpower savings is probably worth another $100K. … Thank you for your help in getting us here.”
