2-Minute Drill.

With 2:09 left on the clock, Vince Young made the improbable the inevitable in the 2006 Rose Bowl. His 2-Minute Drill created Raving Fans for life. It's the end of the 4th Quarter at Datamax, but there's still time on the clock. What's your 2-Minute Drill?

Dear Datamax Family,

As I’ve mentioned to many of you before, this is my favorite time of the entire year. As our “season” comes to an end, it’s a great time to look in the rearview mirror, and also keep our eyes on the road to anticipate what lies ahead.

Using Your Time Outs.

Time outs matter big at the end of the game. But they must be used wisely throughout the course of any contest. Veteran Little Rock salesman Dave Duke shares how that same idea applies for all of us at Datamax. Hint — they shouldn't last more than two minutes! 

At Datamax, we've got even more to rave about.
