Notes from the President

Ken Hilton - President Red Wing Software

In celebration of 45 years in business, Red Wing Software hosted a dinner cruise on the Mississippi River for our staff and retirees. It was a perfect night to sit on the boat’s deck and enjoy the scenery and camaraderie with current and past team members. It was a pleasure to reconnect with some former staff, some traveling long distances and others who have been retired for several years.
Since COVID-19, our entire staff has worked remotely most of the time, with occasional work-at-the-office days. While our internal meetings are held via video conference using Microsoft® Teams, this event allowed us to gather and network in person.
On another note, I’ve mentioned several times the importance of continuing education. To that end, Tim, the Red Wing Software Support Manager, and I traveled to Louisville, KY, for the Farm Financial Standards Council annual meeting. This organization was started around 35 years ago and has also experienced many changes. Seeing so many new (and younger) attendees this year was refreshing. We were also able to connect with several long-time customers who help us continuously improve our offerings and, of course, stay current with the ever-changing needs of our customers. I can’t stress enough the importance of this kind of continuing education on the success of any business.

LEARN with our Revamped YouTube Page!

We’ve revamped the Red Wing Software YouTube page! You can now find all Red Wing Software Help videos on the YouTube channel, organized by product and searchable by name and subject. These videos will also continue to be available in the product Help section. They will be added and maintained in both places.
YouTube makes it easier to find videos with easy organization tools like playlists, product categories, and excellent search tools. It also suggests other videos based on what you’ve watched.
There is also a selection of videos that help you understand new features and how they work, and a section at the top of the page highlights newer videos.

Notes from the President

Ken Hilton - President Red Wing Software

Last month, I wrote about the company celebrating our 45th anniversary. Thinking about all the changes that have taken place over the years reminds me of the people who led the company through the years and have since retired. We owe much of our success to these former leaders and visionaries.
There have been many changes over the last 45 years. I recall having a room full of computers to make copies of the software to send to customers. We needed many different brands of equipment because every system had its own unique disk format, not to mention multiple operating systems. Of course, now virtually all software is distributed as downloads, and our programs are only available for one operating system.
I could go on and on about all the changes we’ve experienced, but the one most important thing is keeping up with the changing times and not falling behind in technology. This is as important for you, as a software user, as it is for us as a supplier. Now would be a good time to inventory your critical business tools and ensure your computer(s) and software are up to date. It’s never fun to have a problem with an important tool and scramble to recover your valuable information.
