“We have continued to be amazed by the amount of hidden cost savings opportunities we have been able to find and realize in partnership with shared-savings firms like DocuFrog” noted TERI, Inc. Founder and CEO, Cheryl Kilmer. CFO Joe Michalowski added, “We run a very tight ship on cost control but there are always areas where we can improve and funds saved are funds we don’t need to raise. Who would have thought we would save this kind of money on office equipment leases!”.

Dale Martin, founder of DocuFrog, a PinPoint® shared savings alliance partner, added, “It is especially gratifying to help nonprofits like TERI realize found money (cost savings) because of the work they do in the lives of so many people and our efforts frees up significant funds to be put to great use helping even more.”

“All nonprofits are in a battle for donor funds”, Mark Neilson, co-founder of
PinPoint® said. “It’s great when we can put some funds back to better use in not for profit organizations by helping them FIND internal savings”.
