As I entered my twentieth year in business, I looked at whats out there in the marketplace. Either I found high-end franchise software out of Canada (great stuff), with assigned territories, that costs thousands (no kidding) or some very low-end "me-too" software that is just laughable, to be kind, with its generic phrases that are used in most everyones name as the opening paragraph. The pricing at either end of the spectrum didnt fit my customer base. I didnt want my customers to buy junk or spend a ton of money for the kind of quality software that I am known for. My mission: To offer my customers a last name software package that didnt cost an arm and a leg, but provided the quality and ease of use that you, my client, comes to expect. I used to say that I wouldnt tackle this large of a project, but I have learned to never say "never". Ha. So here is it. I believe this to be one of the most user-friendly, complete surname packages in existence.

1. So easy to use that a complete beginner will be able to master it almost immediately! It's as simple as 1-2-3: 1) Type a name 2) Format and preview the document and 3) Print.
