Considering CRM solutions?
You first need to understand CRM best practices. Before committing to a CRM purchase and implementation, it's good to know the experience of those who have already "been there, done that." It can save time and prevent costly missteps. Download Free Research.

Organic Inc. (Nasdaq: OGNC) was down 1/2 at 4 1/4 early Thursday after announcing it will not reach its goal of attaining a profit in the third quarter.

"The industry, in general, seems to be experiencing a temporary lull," said Jonathan Nelson, chairman and chief executive officer of the San Francisco, California-based company. Organic's warning followed similar statements from other Internet consulting firms, which also expect lower results as companies cut back on e-business spending.

Organic said revenue for the quarter will be about 5 percent ahead of the second quarter's $37.2 million, and it now expects to post a profit by the second quarter of next year. Results for the quarter ending September 30th will be reported October 23rd.
