As part of PADI’s commitment to your diving business, we are pleased to announce an exclusive membership benefit for PADI Dive Centre and Resort Members in the UK. During 2009, members have the opportunity to attend training seminars and online webinars, learning to maximize the use of the most advanced dive centre management system available. As an additional benefit, PADI and ISSYS will be providing EVE 5 training seminars, webinars and providing materials throughout 2009 to IRRA Members using EVE. IRRA Members wishing to use EVE 5 will also be welcome to take advantage of this training support.
EVE 5 is the complete Dive Centre management software system.

Many dive centres throughout the world are already using EVE 5 effectively to increase their business and these dive centres have reported substantial growth that can be directly attributed to the use of this program. At PADI, we believe that your business will also experience similar growth through the use of EVE 5.
The world is in financial strife but financial year to date our sales 2008 are up by a pinch under 40%. The only thing we have going for us is the combination of EVE, an effective CRM policy & e-Learning

From a marketing perspective, EVE creates customer satisfaction with a simple series of clicks. Dive Centre staff can target hot leads based on precise information. In doing this, EVE helps you overcome “ad avoidance” (i.e., the current marketing term for deleting unsolicited emails or spam) by making sure the contact you have with your customers is accurate, appropriate to their interests and timely. EVE excels in one-to-one marketing, focusing on the individual, learning about that person as time goes by and fostering a unique and lasting relationship.
