As a Pterodactyl, you’re working way too hard.

All that flying around, looking for a few little fish, can wear a dino out.

Imagine being a Pterodactyl way back when, flying through the skies, trying to see if there’s any fish in that murky lake far below.

That’s a whole lot of work, and it’s part of the reason they were not particularly successful as a species.

Managing your client hardware purchasing in-house is a lot like being a Pterodactyl. Sure, you make a little more on the front end, but have you really looked at what it costs you? When I finally saw these kinds of numbers in my business, I knew I had to find a better way.

Here’s what it takes to make a buck, Pterodactyl-style:

That’s 9.5 hours of your time, just getting the computers into your client's hands.

Add on another 5-ish hours post-deployment — in bookkeeping, communications, and sales tax management, before that purchasing job is finished. And drive a wedge into your relationship while you’re at it.

What could you be doing in those 15-ish hours that would better serve your business? When I looked at my never-ending to-do list, the answer was clear.

I had to create more time for myself, and let someone else do the grunt work of computer purchasing.

Let someone else do the legwork.
