Fed up with having to catch the red-eye so you can make that all-important meeting? Pulling your hair out in frustration at not being able to get everyone in one place at one time?
Impossible to show colleagues which bit of the report you are referring to? You need to start conferencing – available to use with the phone, over the internet or via video, this is the answer to your communication needs
A great way to help your firm communicate more efficiently is to use conferencing to bring together important members of staff and even your customers and business partners. BT Conferencing helps you connect your key people instantly, whether they’re out of the office or in another country.
BT has more than 20 years of experience in conferencing, and offers high quality, tried and tested solutions that cover voice, web and full video conferencing. It can even enable you to share documents and presentations in real time.
Conferencing adds another layer to your communication. With it you can gain commercial advantage by sharing your knowledge and expertise in a timely, efficient way – and implement key decisions fast.
Conferencing also cuts out the need for expensive and time-consuming business travel. Not only will your employees be well informed, they will also be more productive and, most important, able to maintain an improved work-life balance.
BT has a range of conferencing options to meet your individual requirements. For example, BT Express is a quick, easy and reliable phone conferencing service that lets you talk to several colleagues at once, whether they’re on landlines or mobiles. The service is secure as each user gets a unique password for each conference.
Another option is BT MeetMe, which is like your own personal meeting room. The phone conferencing service lets up to 40 people meet quickly and easily. You don’t have to book and you just need a phone and a pass code. If you need to bring a project team together for weekly status meetings, or hold meetings at any time without having to pre-book, this is ideal.
If you want to add web conferencing features to your BT MeetMe service, it’s worth looking at BT’s hosted service, Microsoft Office Live Meeting. With this, participants can share Microsoft Office presentations and documents on the web. You can work together with colleagues using features such as whiteboards, voting polls, annotation and instant messaging.
Conferencing also lets you do things that would otherwise be impossible. Just think how helpful an impromptu discussion around your desk can be, for example. With conferencing technology, you can have this kind of meeting any time, wherever your desk may be, without having to worry where colleagues, customers or suppliers are located.
