Confession Time With Caroline...

I am a closet weather junkie.   Wait, who am I kidding?  If any of you follow me on Facebook or my personal tweets, then you know that I am always watching the weather.   My favorite time of the year is winter.  I love the cold, the snow (even though I never see it and beg for it weekly).  With that said, the Polar Vortex totally got me excited!  For the first time in 45 years I witnessed bone cold temps in the single digits and I was out in it like a Saint Bernard, which was rather silly considering this South Carolina gal doesn’t own the right clothing for 3 degrees, but I digress.  Now, we are looking at another polar vortex for the next couple of weeks (excited, right?) http://www.foxnews.com/weather/2014/01/04/polar-vortex-to-blast-frigid-air-over-much-us/

So, how does this all play into conferencing?   Easily, shh.. don’t tell anyone I said this, but this is the downside of my job.. I don’t get snow days, I don’t get the “I can’t make it to the office today” excuse because with our products, I am always able to work, and so can you.  Our state of the art equipment is monitored 24x7 by Conference Group team (whether blizzards, hurricanes or sunshine).  Which is why so many companies turn to us during times of disaster or emergency weather situations.   Luckily, I'm able to use our web and video conferencing products for the times I can’t get out.  When I do have to venture out, our voice audio conferencing coupled with the Group-e mobile app, make it super simple for me to conference on the go!   Can your clients do this?  If not, you definitely need to contact me!  And not just to talk about the weather...  :)

Are We Having Fun Yet?

How time flies when we are having fun!!   It’s been a while since I’ve updated our “Coffee-break” blog, not because I’ve had nothing to say, but wow…. Lots are going on!!   2014 is going to be a fantastic year with big products coming!  Hang onto your hats cause the breeze is picking up!    What I’ve failed to tell you all is we’ve had some exciting things happen in our fourth quarter!    The new and improved Audio Console is out!

 

The new advance features of the console include instant Dial Out, the ability to call attendees from a saved or imported list of contacts.  “Sticky” Notes, a convenient place to document reminders or notes prior to or during a call.  There are enhanced recording features that will allow your client to pause a recording in progress and playback which will enable your client to easily incorporate recorded audio into a live conference.  The audio console is tablet and smartphone ready, which will make it convenient for your clients on the go.  

The console is free to your new and existing clients using our Reservationless services.   I can provide you and your potential client with a demo via our Lotus Live WebConferencing platform.

Busy Times & Exciting Events

It seems the past few weeks have been extremely busy for me.   The Cloud Partners show in Chicago was a great show.  Lots of talk about the cloud and how you all are going to use it.  Most don’t think of Conferencing including a cloud product, but it does.  Our Video Conferencing and Web Conferencing products are cloud based and can fit nicely into your portfolio.   Last week, I had a great opportunity to see two of my favorite California based agents.  It’s always a great time when you get to talk to those that have been in this industry like I have and understand the importance of conferencing. 

This week the Conference Group will be a bronze sponsor at the TDM Summit in Indiana at the Horseshoe Hotel and Casino.  TDM recently purchased business from KeeneTel, so I am excited about meeting many new partners.   TDM is based out of the Louisville, KY area and I’ve had the pleasure of working with them for many years.  Master Agents are finding value in bringing their partners in and allowing round table discussions with their vendors.  It sets the stage for some upfront discussions, product training and development.  If your company is holding one of these events, please let me know!
