			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, so you are hearing a lot about VoIP phone systems and how they are g<a href="http://lowermytelecom.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/VoIP-Phone.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-218" title="VoIP Phone" src="http://lowermytelecom.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/VoIP-Phone.jpg" alt="" width="135" height="106" /></a>oing to save you a ton of money but why switch to VoIP when the call quality is perceived to be inferior? That is a great question for anyone considering an upgrade to a VoIP phone system. You need to be crystal clear on one thing; not all VoIP solutions are created equal. Call quality can vary depending on your carrier choice and solution provider. If you consult with a telecom advisor, they will help you locate a perfect VoIP solution for your business. So with the assistance of a trusted telecom advisor helping you choose the perfect VoIP system, you will have a terrific telephone system that will last for a long time. Watch out for hosted VoIP companies claiming to offer excellent service at rock bottom rates. Voice traffic should ride over a secure, private MPLS back bone so that packets avoid latency issues and voice calls come in loud and clear. If you want to save money, improve productivity and avoid any headaches, work with a telecom advisor to help you find a proven VoIP phone system.</p>
<p>Most companies these days are looking to reduce expenses and improve employee productivity by installing new technology. VoIP is a perfect example of how you can reduce costs and enhance productivity without sacrificing voice quality. You save money by eliminating long distance charges between office locations, reducing the cost of international calls, and decreasing network administration work load and overall cost to maintain your network.</p>
<p>Some VoIP phone benefits include the following.</p>
<ul>
<li>Unified communications</li>
<li>Single phone number for reaching you or your employees</li>
<li>Free Inter-office calls with 4 digit dialing</li>
<li>Auto Attendant</li>
<li>Advanced call routing</li>
<li>Reduced international rates</li>
<li>Reduced operating costs by combining your voice, data and Internet on a single platform</li>
<li>System integration with email, contact management and CRM</li>
<li>Secure VPN connections for remote and mobile users</li>
<li>Increase line capacity because you get 48 call paths on a single T-1</li>
<li>Ability to easily move, add or change phones without having to call in your phone vendor</li>
<li>Audio and video conferencing</li>
<li>Ability to easily move, add or change phones without having to call in your phone vendor</li>
</ul>
<p>What is the number one reason why companies should switch to VoIP? The answer is the increase in employee productivity will save you the most money over time. A few years back, Intel investigated the effect of VoIP on such things as user productivity and the real potential savings became quite apparent. When looking at all the simple tasks like placing calls on hold, forwarding, voicemail, faxing and looking up phone numbers and then placing the call, Intel found that a combination of VoIP and unified messaging increased productivity anywhere from 134 percent up to 500 percent. Obviously, the more employees you have the greater the savings but even small to mid-size companies with multiple offices will definitely see cost savings but more importantly productivity gains will boost the bottom line.</p>
<p>If you are looking for answers on whether or not to install a new VoIP phone system, please consider working with a trusted telecom advisor to steer you in the right direction. And if you want to find out where you can get a new VoIP phone system with NO MONEY DOWN and no credit qualifications, then please contact Spiritel Solutions at 866-770-0300.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PIZZA PIE SHOP INCREASES CALL CAPACITY AND BOOSTS SALES 20%</p>
<p>I know you have a favorite pizza joint and you probably eat there quite a bit. If your anything like me, you probably get a little upset when you can&#8217;t get what you want. Let me explain. If your pizza place is popular, then there are bound to be times when the line is super long. Well, what happens when you try to call and you get a busy signal? I am sure you try again but if they don&#8217;t answer the third time you may go somewhere else to eat. If you owned the pizza pie shop and a hundred other locations, you would lose a lot of money if this happened over and over at each location.</p>
<p>The owner of the pizza joint wasn&#8217;t even aware that his out-of-date phone system was costing the company sales. During peak ordering times, the phone lines were always at full capacity and they would ring busy. The owner wanted to upgrade the phone system but the capital expense to implement was simply out of the question. The cost of the hardware alone was going to be more than $500,000 and there was no way he was going to qualify for a loan.</p>
<p>The owner received a call from a telecom advisor with an opportunity to upgrade his phone system to a brand new VoIP phone system for no money down.  With this plan he would wrap the cost of the phone hardware into the monthly service bill so he would easily qualify based on a monthly service bill of $10,000.  In fact, everyone who has every applied for this program has qualified. The owner was able to write-off the entire purchase as an operating expense, so the decision was really a no brainer for the owner.</p>
<p>Because the system included a Dynamic IP circuit, each location would be able to increase the number of phone lines, improve the Internet speed and enable the ability to create secure VPN connections with the home office for data transfer. As a result of the phone system enhancements, sales increased by 20% and overall customer satisfaction improved. This is a win/win situation for everyone involved. The pizza shop owner increases sales, gets a brand new VoIP phone system for no money down and the telecom advisor has a happy customer for a very long time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the best way for a corporation to control costs on mobile broadband services for employees? If you go directly to the carriers, you will most likely need to sign a long term agreement for a plan that will most likely be underutilized by your employees. If you calculate your cost per megabyte, then you will quickly see how your company is wasting money on mobile broadband services.</p>
<p>Here is a smarter way to buy mobile broadband for your company. First, there is no reason to sign a long term agreement with a carrier because you will save money by going with a month to month plan. By having the flexibility to manage your inventory on a month to month basis, you keep the cost per megabyte for each user way down. Also, you need to purchase a customized from a wholesale provider leveraging their purchasing power and management platform. The majority of all mobile broadband customers use 1GB or less per month so you want the ability to negotiate a low cost plan with lower user thresholds and a low cost per megabyte fee for overages. This is the most effective way to lower your cost for mobile broadband. Finally, you want to have the option to set your own corporate policy in terms of usage and have the necessary reporting tools and billing insight to manage user behavior. It is better to be proactive in monitoring employee usage for cost containment and cost predictability.</p>
<p>You may also want to find out if the carrier offers any additional services. The wholesale carrier may offer free wifi hotspot access points around the globe. Or, they may provide low cost hardware from well known suppliers like Sierra Wireless.</p>
<p>Another bonus of working with a wholesale provider, is the personal relationship. You typically work with a dedicated account representative that understands your business and support requirements. You will never be placed on hold or transferred from one department to another. You simply pick up the phone and talk directly to your rep. If you are ready to save money and experience the best in customer support, pick up the phone and give us a call at 866-770-0300.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>AT&amp;T has just announced that the all-you-can-eat data plan has been removed from the buffet. A small percentage of heavy iPhone users are causing slow performance on the network for everyone. You knew this was coming because it is a losing proposition to try and feed the bandwidth demand of the heavy users, which represent less than 2% of all users. Now, the heaviest users will pay the most for data usage and this is a better model for everyone.</p>
<p>Starting on Monday, new customers will have the option to pay $15 a month for 200 megabytes, or $25 for 2 gigabytes with additional charges for more usage. Existing unlimited data plan users will have the option to keep their existing plan. Considering that 65% of the smartphone users on the network use less than 200 megabytes and 98% averaged less than 2 gigabytes, it may be a cost savings for existing users to switch to the new pricing plan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>eMOBUS offers wireless mobility management to medium-sized companies looking to reduce the cost of cell phone services. eMOBUS is perfect for all sorts of industries but they have a nice list of satisfied clients in the construction industry. Brian Miliate is the CFO for Baker Electric needed to get a handle on wireless expense so he chose to work with eMOBUS for mobility management. Baker Electric has been in business since 1938 and is a full-service, fourth generation, family-owned and operated company. Baker Electric is a successful contractor working on large contracts throughout sothern California. Their client base includes Commercial, Industrial-High Tech, Manufacturing, Power Generation, Renewable Energy/Photovoltaic Solar and Residential in both the public and private sectors. With headquarters in San Diego, Baker works across southern California so their employees depend on cellular service to communicate with colleagues and clients.</p>
<p>With a wide variety of service contracts and the cellular arena in constant flux, Miliate\&#8217;s team found it extremely difficult to keep track of who was paying how much to which wireless service provider, for how many minutes per month. That inability was costing Baker Electric. This is a common scenario for a corporate account that deploys over 100 cell phone lines. When, as part of an internal restructuring, the company inventoried every cellular phone number, it discovered a significant number of defunct cellular accounts for which the company was still paying.<br />
Concluding that Baker Electric lacked the resources to manage wireless expenses on its own, Miliate went looking for a wireless expense management provider that could monitor wireless service contracts to make sure they are current and competitive, and negotiate the best market terms and conditions. He chose eMOBUS, a proven mobility management provider in the construction industry.</p>
<p>According to Miliate, eMOBUS performed all of the heavy lifting, producing cost savings that, for the most part, we would have struggled with or spent too much time to create ourselves. Collectively, they dropped our AT&amp;T, Sprint and Verizon costs by 32%. Before eMOBUS we had three sales reps, three carrier systems, and three different types of billing invoices. Now we have one system, one knowledgeable support center, and consistent reporting. The complete solution allows Baker Electric to spend minimal time on cellular so they can focus on planning and strategy rather than bill reconciliation and account maintenance.</p>
<p>The management of cell phone plans, rates, inventory, contracts and moves/adds/changes is a real nightmare for most medium-sized businesses. With limited resources, it is unlikely that accounts payable and IT staff are able to keep up to date with all the changes that occur with wireless assets. What this adds up to is a major management headache for administrators. The problem cannot be ignored, however. Security, budgetary and productivity concerns are pressuring companies to keep better track of employee wireless accounts and utilization.</p>
<p>By taking a preventative approach, eMOBUS delivers a powerful new way to manage mobility. After establishing the optimal cost configurations for purchasing a corporate pooling plan environment, Electronic Mobility Management is deployed to keep those configurations in place. By centralizing every transaction, from ESN swap to plan change, ordering a new device to canceling a line, upgrading a line to suspending service, each move/add/change transaction is referenced against business intelligence rules before it is executed into the carriers system. So once eMOBUS deploys your provisioning plan, your costs will always be optimized, your inventory will be accurate and your company will continue to save money month after month.</p>
