A teleconference *
can be both an inexpensive and powerful business tool ... if you know how to use it. Gone are the days when the best way to place a conference call was simply to dial the operator. New technology and new competition bring you far more at much less cost. Learn the ins and outs of doing an effective conference call: what to do, how to do it, and how to keep the cost of your teleconference to a minimum.Some things to consider:
Our conference calling help site is designed so you'll select the best and least expensive service based on your needs.
- Convening the group
- Will your participants call in or do they need to have someone call them at a certain time?
- Access
- If your participants will be calling in, will you want them to call a toll-free number, or will you want them to pay their own long distance charges?
- Assistance
- Will you need help from an teleconference operator, or would you rather save money with an automated teleconference?
