TelSpan -Worldwide Conferencing

We have a client in the financial industry that regularly holds luncheons with a presentation to prospects about the services their firm offers. Realizing that they were missing out on additional prospects who were unable to physically attend for one reason another, this client reached out to TelSpan for assistance.

With a variety of platforms available, we were able to craft a solution enabling this client to broadcast out the audio portion of the event as well as the slide presentation, live over web and phone lines in real time. In this case, due to a lack of internet access at the luncheon facility, a TelSpan operator assisted offsite with pushing the slides for the remote audience, and coordinated the entire presentation with the speaker via the audio line. Remote attendees are able to access the presentation from anywhere with their pc and telephone.

Have you ever caught yourself letting your mind wander during a conference call?  Have you ever been in a meeting watching a presentation of PowerPoint^TM slides that made you want to fall asleep?  We’ve all been in that situation, and let’s be honest, a conference call or boring set of slides is not the most exciting way to get a message across.  That’s why more and more organizations are utilizing video production to create a fun, interesting, visual image to hold their audience’s attention and get their message across in a more engaging way.

Your audience is much more likely to pay attention to something that has an engaging visual element to it.  People have been shown to respond better when information is received in this way.  Audiences retain a higher percentage of what they both see and hear than something they only see, or hear on a conference.  Participants are also much more likely to listen and pay attention to your presentation if it holds their attention and has a professional look to it.

That is why, at TelSpan, we offer a Video Production service to our clients.  We have a talented staff that can create and produce a professional quality video presentation for your organization.  No longer will participants be dozing off or losing interest; now they will be congratulating you on your excellent presentation!

We recently had a client contact us about the possibility of utilizing our web conferencing service to produce online recordings of a day-long live seminar.  The goal was to capture the live seminar, intermix it with the presentation materials, break it down into multiple sessions, and archive the recordings on the client’s website for use by their members.  Members could then go online to view the recorded sessions and earn Continuing Education credit at their convenience.  Because CE credit was involved, the online viewers had to be provided with a short exam at the end of each online session, in order to verify that they viewed and understood the material.  Additionally, our client asked that the online participants who passed the exam receive their Certificate of Completion automatically. 

Now, you might be thinking that this is starting to sound like an awfully tall order for a web conferencing tool!

By utilizing our in-house video production team, along with the TelSpanVenue web conferencing platform, we were able to accomplish each of our client’s goals.  We sent a member of TelSpan’s Media Team to the client’s location to record the day-long seminar on video.  Next, we split and edited the recorded video material into the desired segments.  The videos were then played back into the TelSpanVenue platform, intermixed with PowerPoint^TM presentations, and recorded for archiving using TelSpanVenue’s built in self-recording feature.  The web platform also allowed us to automatically redirect the online participants to the client’s customized exam at the conclusion of the presentation.  Additionally, we were able to designate a passing percentage for the exam, and when participants achieve that passing percentage, they are automatically redirected to their Certificate of Completion which we host on behalf of our client.

Ultimately, we were able to provide our client with a solution which met each of their strict specifications.  The online attendees, who wish to receive their Continuing Education credit via the archived recordings, get to experience a presentation which is just as inclusive and interactive as the live seminar.  What once appeared as a daunting task, was quickly and easily overcome using TelSpan’s expansive products and services!
