Priority1 Adopts New Technology to Better Serve Shipping Clientele

Based in northern New Jersey, Stephen "Steve" Sangree holds the title of senior territory manager for Priority1, a shipping-solutions company dedicated to exceeding customer expectations. As part of his responsibilities, Stephen Sangree stays up-to-date with the company's latest technological advancements to better serve his customers.

Among Priority1's recent innovations is its adoption of HubTran, software that applies automation to common back-office tasks. At the time when the new resource was announced, Priority1 was experiencing an average annual growth rate of 37 percent, and sought to increase the speed of its operations. Among the immediate improvements were reducing its days sales outstanding (DSO) by four days.

Through HubTran, Priority1 no longer has to invest as much time reviewing each carrier's website to obtain PODs and BOLs and documenting the results. Instead, Priority1 now uses batch processing to automatically invoice customers according to their unique backup requirements, such as sending an e-mail with comprehensive backup documents or a single link to their details. Priority1 regularly reviews its operations to identify the best and latest technology to improve its services for its customers.

Audio Recording with GarageBand - A Beginner's Guide

Offering innovative shipping options to executive-level clients, Stephen “Steve” Sangree is a territory manager at Priority1. Based in New Jersey, Stephen Sangree enjoys challenging himself outside of the workplace through empowering activities such as making music.

When it comes to music software for beginners, GarageBand by Apple is one of the most common and respected. It comes as a part of every Mac and iPhone and is free to download. Despite how easy it is to obtain, GarageBand has powerful capabilities.

First, the software comes preloaded with lots of samples. Choose a base loop, and add layers to create a song.

Second, the Software Instrument function allows you to make your own music using dozens of different pre-programmed instruments, from drum kits to pianos. Playing music using your Mac or MIDI keyboard, you can write an entire album without owning a single physical instrument.

Finally, GarageBand allows users to record real-life instruments using either the built-in microphone in a computer or phone or with an external mic. With an external one, just plug it into the computer and position it near the instrument, and you're ready to use GarageBand for live audio recording.
