On January 2, 2009, Soft Trac was one of 26 businesses who suffered the loss of their main office at 500 Route One in Yarmouth, Maine due to a fire that destroyed the building. Read more

While we were determined that we would not let the fire distract us from our mission of giving back to our community by helping nonprofits, we were forced to embark on a journey of rebuilding the company.

It is with a grateful heart that we acknowledge the help and support given to us by our customers, vendors, business associates, the Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce, our former landlord and his staff as well as our many personal friends and family. There are too many people to acknowledge individually here, but you know who you are. Everyone from Art and Rob who made certain that we had a chance to retrieve what we could, to the friend who delivered homemade cookies or gave one of us a “hug”, to the associate who offered us space to conduct business while we rebuilt, or the vendor who replaced our business cards and letter head at no cost, to the Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce staff member who made certain that we knew of available donations…your thoughtfulness will not be forgotten.

You will all be happy to know that Soft Trac has turned the “lemons” into “lemonade”. Our new office space at 361 Route One in Falmouth provides us with more space to conduct our business. An open house is planned for mid July.

Soft Trac, LLC, a Maine-based Sage Software Business Partner offering nonprofit solutions including Sage MIP Fund Accounting, Sage Fundraising and Sage FAS Fixed Assets, today announced that they have been selected by Accounting Technology magazine as one of under 15 “Killer VARs” of 2008. This distinction recognizes software resellers who demonstrate commitment and character, and continue to grow due to innovative marketing techniques and an extraordinary level of service. Soft Trac was highlighted for marketing efforts that lead to their selection by Sage Software as a “Co-op Champion” earlier this year.

“We are honored to receive this distinction,” said Darla Hamlin of Soft Trac, “Though marketing is only one part of the picture. What really makes us successful is our dedication to our customers. After all, marketing can help us win a customer, but it is good service and our knowledge that keeps them!”

The article was published as the lead story in Accounting Technology’s August 2008 magazine and also featured on their website . Other firms selected for the honor include the SBS Group, Mendelson Consulting, Business Technology Partners, John Kane, Demand Solutions Group and several others. All firms demonstrated a unique, customer-centric approach towards service and marketing, varying based on their targeted business market and products offered.
