Can you recommend a vendor who provides data entry services and enters the data in a timely manner? I have a vendor but it is taking them a month to enter the data from the paper forms then emails the electronic versions to my organization. The data (constituent records) are then imported into Raiser's Edge. I'm looking for a turn-around time of four or less days from receipt of paper forms by the vendor to emailing electronic data to my organization. JB

Janie - What area are you in? Lucile Barbati Donor Services Coordinator West Valley Fine Arts 525 N. Central Ave. Avondale, AZ 85323

I am in the Mid-Atlantic region, DC/Virgina/Maryland; prefer forms to take only 2-3 days to be shipped by ground to the data entry vendor (least expensive shipping).

Janie, approximately what volume, each month, are we talking about? Margaret Margaret Whitaker Presbyterian Hospital Foundation

What is the cost for data entry service and what program do you get it back in? Joyce

How has the vendor been entering the data? Into excel and then you're importing or are you giving your vendor direct access? Lucile Barbati Donor Services Coordinator West Valley Fine Arts 525 N. Central Ave. Avondale, AZ 85323

Jani, to follow-up on your vendor question, I may be of assitance on this. If you wish, email me off-line at [Email Removed]. Margaret Margaret Whitaker Presbyterian Hospital Foundation

We get about 2500 constituent records to process. Right now I can have it done at 16 cents per record where they input into an Excel text file for import. Thanks for the offer, Margaret! I may email you later.
