The GDS business model, upon which we have built, serves a community of hundreds of Wholesalers and Distributors over the years and revolves around some very simple and long-lasting principles.

"Single Source of Responsibility" - This offers the small to medium sized Wholesaler the best technology partnership. No matter where the problem lies, this business model places problem determination and problem solution with us.

System design and implementation must be affordable, customizable and scaleable.

	Affordable - Industry leading price / Performance ratios on all products and services.
	Customizable - Flexible system design and implementation. ProfitTool is a full source code product.
	Scalable - Spans a LAN / WAN environment from 5 to over 50 users without a dedicated IT person or staff.

Partner with those who truly understand your business world. For GDS, this means (1) carefully selecting the products and technology partners we work with and (2) completing the custom work with our staff members, not some off shore or third party development team.

The GDS advantage is simple. A ProfitTool Financial Management System is not only affordable, but a complete suite of professional services is available from our staff experts - Software programmers, network engineers, software training and help desk. These services encompass all aspects of an ERP solution, but are offered ala-carte so you can chose those services that best fulfill your requirements.
