One
of the best business services ever
created is conferencing, but the majority of small businesses
overlook this essential time-saving tool. Most meetings outside an
office setting still involve time-wasting car travel, endless emails,
or worse yet, 3-way calling. Effective multi-person communication can
be a real challenge, especially for small business. Conference
calling lets you make the most of your valuable time by turning your
phone into an instant meeting room. Our conferencing service delivers
convenience, cost-savings, and most importantly, time.

Now
you can connect everyone through a simple phone call while relaxing
in your cozy home office. Just like a face-to-face meeting, a
conference call allows everyone to hear and talk with everyone else,
but without any gas-guzzling, rush hour drives to the main office.
Discuss all those important matters and resolve all those pressing
problems, while relaxing with a nice cup of coffee. Use it with your
cell phone or land line, whenever you need it. It's a service that's
always there, ready to whisk you off to that important meeting, but
without the "whisk." Think of it as your electric service but for
meetings. It can spring into action with the flick of a switch. It's a
simple, always on, service that gives you back more of that very short,
24 hour day. Our customers get so accustomed to our superior quality,
no-worry service, they tell us, "I just use it and never really
think about it!" --which is kind of nice, if you do think about it. |
|
|
| | It's a rare thing in
this world to know what your bill is before you
open the statement. With our service, each month your credit card
charge is always the same, no matter what you do. Make 10 calls or 1000
calls--it doesn't matter. Use 100 minutes or a mind boggling 100,000
minutes--it makes no difference. You literally get unlimited use. And
the bill? It's always the same. Best of all, there are no "surprise"
overage charges, unlike some conferencing services. Pick a plan and
that's the price you pay. You are in control. | |
|
|
| With
each plan we limit the maximum number of people that can be on any
one call. There are never any surprise overage charges to unexpectedly
ruin your budget. If you buy a 5-user plan, that is the maximum number
of people that can be on a call. For a 10-user plan, no more than 10
people can be on a call, and so on. You simply pick a plan that best
suits your needs based on how many people you think will be attending
your calls. We offer a wide array of plans to choose from. If your
needs change, you can always upgrade, downgrade or cancel your plan at
any time. Just call the customer service center and they can make the
change right away. The monthly charge, however, will always be what you
expect based on the plan you currently have selected. |

|
| A
lot of businesses need a toll free number for people to dial with
their conference calls. Our toll free dial-in is an option available
with all flat rate plans. Buy any flat rate audio conferencing or web
conferencing plan and you can optionally get toll free access at a
industry-low 3.9¢/minute. Best of all, it costs nothing unless
you
use it. If you never use the toll free number during a month, your cost
is only the flat rate fee for the plan you selected--no toll free
charges. And, with our service, you can mix toll and toll free callers
on any conference call for even greater savings. The toll caller, who
dials our regular 10-digit number, will incur their normal long
distance charges on their phone bill. Toll free callers will not incur
any long distance charges, but you will see an additional
3.9¢/minute on your monthly conferencing bill for all toll
free
minutes used by you or your conferees. It's the most cost effective way
for people to conference toll free. | |
|
|
| To
keep toll free costs low, we suggest you ask people to dial the
regular (toll) number if they are using a cell phone or they have an
"unlimited long distance" plan on their phone. Long distance for these
callers generally won't cost them any more. When you announce a call
via email, for example, just include both the toll and toll free
numbers and ask each group to dial the appropriate one. Now relax. We
have you covered on toll free at the industry's lowest price. It
dovetails nicely with your flat rate conferencing plan. Once you are
signed up and using our system, you'll never have to think about it
too.

| If
at this point, some of you may find yourself asking "What is
Conferencing?" You are not alone. So many people don't use conferencing
because they don't really know what it is. Here is a very quick answer.
Conferencing is simply a service which allows three or more people to
converse using their phones. It's like being there in a room with your
friends or business associates. Each person can talk and be heard by
the others. The only difference is, they may be in the next room or
thousands of miles away, connected only by phone. Other names commonly
used for conferencing are audio conferencing, teleconferencing, or
conference calling. When you "conference," you can use any kind of
phone: cell phone, mobile phone, pay phone, house phone, business
phone, cordless phone, land line ... you name it. Our services works
with the good-ole reliable public telephone system so you get clear
connections every time. Basically, if you know how to use a phone, you
know how to conference.
| |
|
|
| You
simply dial a telephone number called a conferencing
number--sometimes referred to as a "bridge" number after the
specialized equipment that magically joins all the callers. After you
dial the conferencing number, you will hear a message asking you to
enter a six digit code followed by the pound sign (#). Using your
telephone keypad, simply enter your unique six digit code, called an
"access code" (it's assigned to you when you first sign up). Hit the #
sign and you will be hear everyone else who has joined the
call. The conferencing "bridge" connects everyone who has
entered
your unique code.

The moderator is someone who runs the conference call. Like an office
meeting, there is usually a leader who directs the discussion. On a
conference call, you, the account holder, are normally the
moderator, but it can be someone else if you choose. When you sign up,
you are actually issued two access codes. One is for all the people who
you invite to attend the conference call, called a "conferee" code. The
second is called a "moderator" code. When a moderator dials in, he or
she enters the special moderator code. All other participants
enter the conferee code. The call will not start until the moderator
joins. People who dialed in early will hear music (although this can be
changed at your request). Once the moderator joins, the callers will be
connected and everyone can talk. The moderator code gives you control
over when the system is used. Special moderator commands let you
control the conference call (see commands). | |

|
| Where
audio conferencing let's people converse though a phone
connection, web conferencing allows people to see visuals (i,e,
presentation slides, spreadsheets, etc ) from any Internet browser. Web
conferencing is normally used in conjunction with audio conferencing.
People hear through the phone while viewing slides or other visual
information on their PC or laptop browser. A presenter advances his or
her slides while talking on the phone. With web conferencing, you
can make presentations anywhere, anytime. It can be a great convenience
to your small business, but also a wonderful marketing tool. It's
conferencing with a "view," thanks to the Internet. |

Most
web conferencing is not only expensive, but is also sold
separately from audio conferencing. It's kind of like buying a car
without the engine; you don't notice until you try to start it, then
they let you know the real cost of what you just purchased. Our service
eliminates both problems. We not only fix your monthly cost for
unlimited web conferencing, we also throw in unlimited audio
conferencing too--all for one low monthly price. Just like our flat
rate audio conferencing products, we give you everything you need for
high quality, no worry service. Even better, it's a full featured web
conferencing product, not a stripped down version. This product matches
the best in the industry with features you'd expect from major brands.
Check our feature list here .
It works with any web browser and there
are no software downloads required. If you have ever wanted to web
conference, you now have a reason to give it a try with our low flat
rates and full featured service. | | | |

Life is different now. People are working from their home office,
traveling more, and working non-traditional hours. Business and
personal activities are mixing. We're on the go and must be able to
work with people everywhere: in other states or even other countries.
Yet, most businesses still use the most inefficient means possible to
interact with co-workers, associates, partners, suppliers and even
customers. The flat rate conferencing model makes conferencing
affordable and worry free. We have put together a package that let's
you concentrate on your business, not your conferencing costs. |
