| ORS DATA PULL & MAXIMIZING YOUR DATA |
Every year the ORS is wiped clean and all information is deleted in preparation for the coming year. This year's data pull
deadline has been extended to June 27, 2017
.
At this year's ALC we took a look at how to identify trends, statistics, and goals by using a Pivot Table. You can maximize your region's data to conduct targeted mailings, communications, and set goals by using your ORS data export to create a Pivot Table. You can download directions HERE.
I promise you it is both easy and illuminating, and if you have any questions I will be happy to walk you through it.
