| Article Title :: Is your employee newsletter management propaganda? |
| |
|
It should not be. If it is an effective newsletter, it will
serve the needs of readers (employees) as much as it serves the
needs of the publisher (management).
Let me explain how to ensure it serves employees as well as
management, by reviewing four key points I make in A Manager’s
Guide to Newsletters: Communicating for Results.
Objectives and reader responses: First, state your objectives in
terms of reader responses. This forces you to focus on your
readers, and what they're likely or not likely to do. Nothing
brings objectives down to earth more quickly than the reality of
implementation.
Now you may have self-serving objectives, such as increasing
employee productivity, which is (read full article) |

Enterprise mobility - It’s more than connecting on the go.
The new Nortel vision of mobility redefines the possibilities
for communication and collaboration in dynamic, distributed
enterprises. It’s a surprising but very real statistic: 50 to 70
percent of office space is unoccupied during normal business
hours (International Telework Association and Council). Where
are these people? Some are elsewhere in the building or visiting
another company site. Others are working at home or on the road.
With the widespread adoption of telecommuting, wireless and
various other “virtual office” technologies, this trend will
only increase. How can companies ensure that time and distance
do not (read full article) |

| Article Title :: SMS 101 - Short Message Service Explained |
| |
|
Short Message Service (SMS) is a quick and simple way to
communicate short messages via mobile phones, handheld devices,
and increasingly even landline telephones. Commonly known as
text messages, SMSes, or even texts the practice has spread
rapidly throughout the world, evident by the fact that 500
billion such messages were sent in the last year alone. The
practice has its popularity due in great part to its convenience
and cost effectiveness. For example, a typical text message
placed in the US at USD 0.05 per message is priced at just 10 to
20% that of a voice call. Such savings have made it the most
popular form of communication in many countries, and the
practice is quickly gaining in (read full article) |

1. Increase the life span of your cell phone and battery by
following the manufacturer’s directions for using the phone and
charging the battery.
2. Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers.
Some Web sites and second-hand dealers, not associated with
reputable manufacturers and carriers, might be selling
incompatible or even counterfeit batteries and chargers.
3. You should purchase manufacturer or carrier recommended
products and accessories wherever possible. If unsure about
whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact
the manufacturer of the battery or charger.
4. Do not permit a battery out of the phone to come in contact

| Article Title :: The Future of Communications - Voice Over Internet |
| |
|
When was the last time that you were able to make a
long-distance call for free? If you said "never", you probably
have not been introduced to VOIP or Voice Over Internet
Protocol. But, is this new technology as efficient as its
counterpart, analog telephone service?
Since the demand for world-wide communication has grown, the
internet has become the most popular way of communicating.
Although Communication via e-mail seemed to be the cheapest way
to do business with those overseas, it wasn't always the most
effective.
If analog phone service was always cost effective, we probably
would not have to wait for someone to open their inbox and hit
reply. Still, verbal communication is the be (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How to write news releases that get noticed Claire Cunningham |
| |
|
What do you do with junk mail? Are you like me? I toss this
stuff without opening it – unless I see some benefit.
Publication editors do the same. They toss news releases that
don’t demonstrate a benefit to their audience.
What’s the difference between a release that gets used and one
that hits the editor’s circular file? Here are seven easy tips
for writing releases that get picked up rather than thrown out.
1. Make sure it’s newsworthy. What’s newsworthy, you ask. To be
newsworthy your topic needs to be timely, of interest to the
publication’s audience, benefit-oriented, and substantive (that
is, not self-serving, hype or fluff.)
2. Write a powerful headline. The headline (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Seduce your wallet with free, cheap or half price mobile phone
deals ... (safely) |
| |
|
You probably already know that mobile phone retailers are
falling over themselves to better each others deals. You will
see many websites and high street shops advertising free or
discounted line rental offers for 6, 9, 12 even 14 months.
So how can the dealers make these seemingly crazy offers? First,
you need to understand how the dealer gets paid and how the
mobile phone industry works (just a little bit). The dealer gets
paid by the network, based on what price plan (tariff) he
connects the customer to; a higher price plan means more money
for the dealer.
Dealer Profit
Then the dealer must pay for the cost of the phone. A high
quality and expensive phone means less profit for (read full article) |

How a business presents itself to its customers has to be the
single most important factor in its potential success. In days
gone by usually your first contact with new customers would have
been through your storefront or through word of mouth, passed on

telecommunication plays an ever increasing role in reaching
potential new customers.
In the last few years the rate at which computing and
telecommunication technology has advanced is simply astounding.
