About Acclaro Consulting
Founded in 2000, Acclaro Consulting provides
data management consulting services to small- and medium-sized businesses
in the San Francisco Bay Area. Focusing primarily on ACT! and Wired
Contact software, Acclaro's unique strength lies in strong
technical capabilities combined with experience in business
administration, marketing, process development, and strategic planning.
Acclaro Consulting has helped
countless businesses create systems that not only help manage their data,
but also streamline overall business processes. Our belief is that
the
most important skill in a consultant is the ability to listen and
interpret each client’s unique needs into creative solutions that are
effective and self-sustaining. Acclaro Consulting works to build and maintain
long-term relationships with clients, most of whom consider Acclaro a valuable
part of their I.T. team.
Julia
Lucia, founder of Acclaro Consulting, has a background in
architecture, strategic planning, business development and marketing.
She believes that designing a database is similar to architecture in that
a solid understanding of each user’s needs is critical. It is also
important to establish a firm foundation so that the system can be
expanded to support all users as needs change over time.
Working independently with
most clients, Julia also draws upon a network of other database
consultants, marketing gurus, graphic designers, photographers, web
designers, and entrepreneurs to ensure that each client receives the full
range of services necessary to guarantee success.
Prior to
starting Acclaro Consulting, Julia worked as a project manager
for a thriving design and planning firm in Berkeley. As a strategic
planning consultant at this firm, she helped government and non-government
agencies, corporations, and non-profits clarify their organizational
development goals, develop action plans, and streamline internal business
processes. She was a key player in developing a local corporate
sustainability consulting practice, and has also worked as an advertising manager in the
corporate headquarters of a national home retail chain, as a marketing
professional and a graphic designer. Julia has a B.A. in Architecture
from U.C. Berkeley, and in her personal time is an accomplished black and
white photographer and avid gardener.
Mission Statement
The mission of Acclaro Consulting is to provide
strategic, integrated, results-oriented data management, marketing, and
business development services to clients who share a similar commitment to
quality and integrity.
The Meaning of ACCLARO
Acclaro is derived from the Spanish verb
aclarar, which means to elucidate or, more specifically, to clarify,
exemplify, explain, and amplify! Acclaro
Consulting is all about taking the confusion out of contact management and
creating customized, easy-to-use systems that improve a client's
productivity, efficiency and ultimately, the bottom line.
