Making a difference for our nonprofit & public sector clients
Capital Business Solutions awarded "Blackbaud BSP of the Year"
Raleigh-based firm earns the top Blackbaud reseller award for the third year straight
Charleston, SC (February, 2005) - Blackbaud, the leading global provider of software and related services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations, announced today that Capital Business Solutions has earned the ‘BSP of the Year' award for 2004. This prestigious award is presented at the annual Partner Summit to the Blackbaud channel partner that has been most successful in acquiring new clients for its Financial Edge™ financial management system.
As the highest honor a Blackbaud channel partner can earn, winning the award requires outstanding marketing skills, constant prospecting, in-depth product knowledge, focused sales efforts and a relentless dedication to client service. Capital Business Solutions excelled in all of these areas in 2004 and has now won the Blackbaud ‘BSP of the Year' award for the third consecutive year.
Steve Dettor, Director of Channel Sales at Blackbaud, has referred to Capital Business Solutions as the prototypical Blackbaud partner. "They have a 100% focus on the nonprofit market, 100% focus on The Financial Edge product line and a 100% focus on client satisfaction. Capital Business Solutions excels in a variety of different verticals, including higher education, community action agencies, children's homes and Lutheran organizations," said Dettor at the January 2005 partner conference. "However, I think what is most impressive is their ability to deliver on a consistent basis, year after year. Capital Business Solutions has been able to build a substantial base of happy Financial Edge clients. I expect them to continue to shine in 2005 and the longer term."
2004 was a banner year for Capital Business Solutions in many ways. In addition to winning the Blackbaud ‘BSP of the Year' award for the third consecutive year, they also opened a new office in the Midwest and exceeded their Financial Edge™ software sales goals by nearly 300 percent.
