I read in a recent article that one of TelSpan’s competitors has decided to cut their prices to be competitive with their two closest rivals. While I agree that price plays a pretty important part in every purchasing decision I make, as a consumer I have to acknowledge that there are many other things to consider.
When a provider offers you a service that seems comparable to one you have but at a much lower price, it goes without saying that you need to do your homework. If I am offering you something that seems too good to be true, don’t take the bait without really looking at what you will get for the money. Will this lower priced company be around when you have a problem? Will you talk to a machine to get answers or a real person? Will this company strive to get a solution for you from the very first person you talk to?
My goal every day is to exceed the expectations of TelSpan’s clients, and if there is any way possible, that means when you call, I will see your request through to its resolution. That is what TelSpan is built upon, and that is the promise we offer our clients (oh yeah, and at a great price!)
Although your computer may be working fine, that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t need regular maintenance. There are several items to address on different schedules. Regular maintenance can be scheduled on your system to run at night, avoiding any interruption while you are performing your computerized tasks. The first items are temporary files and cookies. These files are stored on your system and can slow it down if they are not removed regularly. Most people are using the Internet, some of us more than others, and the web is the place where you will rack up the largest amounts of these files. They are not harmful to your computer, but they do need to be maintained. Programs that are no longer being used can be uninstalled and others that are not used frequently can be removed from your system startup to optimize your processing speed.
Another important item is to defragment your hard drive. When files are too large to store in one location, your computer will “fragment” it into segments, requiring your system to open all “fragments” which can slow your system down. A disk defragmenter can be scheduled to run at night as well. Registry maintenance is recommended as well, but only by a computer technician. Registry keys are necessary for you system to run and deleting one that is required can be disastrous.
Protection from viruses and malware has become increasingly important. Ensuring that your virus definitions are up-to-date can help you avoid the inherent headache when you realize that you’ve clicked through something or downloaded something that you shouldn’t have. The creators are making them more and more difficult to identify and have taken to cloning anti-virus software screens in an effort to convince the user that it is legitimate. Current anti-virus software will help protect your system.
Your computer not only needs to be maintained and protected, but it also needs to be updated. Operating systems will send updates with necessary patches, etc.
Other software such as Microsoft Office will send updates and some software will provide updates on their website, but they are not sent to the user. Many websites requires the latest version Java or Flash to view their site and enjoy full functionality. You want to ensure that your system is maintained, protected, and updated so that when you are ready to use it, everything will work correctly. There is nothing more frustrating that trying to complete a computerized task only to find that your computer isn’t capable, because maintenance has been performed. Take a few moments to set up some scheduled tasks and set reminders for those manual tasks; the return on your time investment will be priceless.

Event management at TelSpan is our promise to dedicate an Event Advisor to your Q&A event from start to finish. You will receive recommendations on the best products to use in order to achieve the most successful event possible. Assistance in the event setup stage, coordinating web training if necessary, and reviewing registration platforms are all included. A confirmation call to ensure your event is scheduled correctly and details are updated puts our client at ease.
On the day of your event, your dedicated head operator will dial out to you and your speaker(s) as VIPs for your pre-conference. During this time, our clients can provide us with any additional call requests as well as discuss last-minute items for the event flow. Your head operator will then provide a professional introduction to your audience and fluidly turn the call to the host/speaker(s) to begin the presentation. During the presentation, host, speakers, and participants have access to support at any time by pressing *0 on their touchtone phone. Q&A session(s) can be held throughout the call by verbally queuing the head operator. At the event’s conclusion, your operator will close the call for you and give you the option to post-conference. Within 24 hours of your event, you will receive a participant list as well as a recording (if previously ordered).
We recognize that when our clients select TelSpan, our service is a reflection upon them. We not only strive to provide great service to our clients, but our clients’ participants as well. Our goal is to provide E3 (“Excellence Exceeding Expectations”) service to everyone we speak with.
Let us manage your next event and see how our event management team can bring professionalism and success to your next conferencing event! Call us at 800-800-1729 to learn more.

When it comes to marketing, most companies use the usual methods: mailings, websites, and telemarketing. In order to really stand out from the competition, successful organizations are adding online video to their sales and marketing mix.
Many professionals find themselves repeating the same content over and over. Whether to employees, clients, or prospects, videos can save hours every day in marketing your organization, product, or service. Similarly, in driving in new business, video effectively delivers your message about the benefits of your products and services. By offering an online video you create a virtual salesperson, increasing contacts and your product awareness exponentially. The prospect also has the opportunity to review the content at their leisure
