BRIMAS - System Training
The team at BRIMAS are here to help make life easier and although usability is at the centre of our system we understand that a little training can go a long way.
Research shows training plays a key role in increased job satisfaction with two-thirds of employees stating they worked harder as a result of learning new skills. Moving from paper based working methods to computer based techniques may create some unease with some members of staff. This is why training is imperative to the success of BRIMAS in your workplace.
In store Training Day Quote:
"Had a great day! I was apprehensive about getting to grips with the BRIMAS software. In order to make the transition into using the programme smooth, we decided a one on one training session would be best. Renee visited us at our Boutique and was able to lead me through every step, guiding and prompting the correct use. After 4 hours of training not only did I feel ready to use BRIMAS I was excited about using it!" - Karen (Madelin Isaac James)

Testimonials
I recently had the BRIMAS system installed and I honestly don't know how I coped without it. It has made my workload much easier and allowed me to spend more time with my customers than in the office. It is really easy to use which is ideal from a staff training point of view. The statistics tool is also great, The pie charts make it really easy to see what designers are outperforming others and what marketing is most effective etc. I would highly recommend Brimas, the system and the support team are great. 
– Bijoux Bridal Boutique
The team at BRIMAS have been more than helpful throughout the development stage of this software, which has been great as we have been able to assist in making the program just what the bridal industry needs. The software is simple to use and navigate through, with help features at every step of the process so really you can’t go wrong. We at Award Winning Confetti and Lace can’t wait until the full program is released in early part of 2011. – Confetti and lace
