Go To Meeting

I was chatting with a man who had called from West of the Rockies. He was interested in marketing and sales training for his retailing manufactured home communities. With my being based not far from Chicagoland, he asked a natural and common question. "How are you going to do this cost-effectively?" My reply was that we do it via GoToMeeting? Be it websites or MHC-MD.com results deliverables, we deliver the bulk such training and services online and by phone, often using GoToMeeting.

We use technology daily here. I'd be the first to say that it is great when you can sit down, have a coffee, soda or other beverage and talk, coaching or do training face to face. We do live training and seminars at associations and for companies.

But when geography and time don't make that possible, then a service such as GotoMeeting makes perfect sense. Certainly there are scenarios when something like Skype or other services can be useful too.

With GoToMeeting, we can have multiple people on the line from various locations all at the same time with ease. The sessions can be recorded. You can do power points. You can look at each other if you opt to use the webcam feature.

Millions have used GoToMeeting (GTM), which we are not advertising here! It is simply a great tool that we use routinely and have for years. It doesn't have to be for a training session either. There are times when you want to discuss and show something to a prospect simultaneously and remotely. GTM makes it possible.

So if you happen to be in some remote part of the country and wonder how sales training, coaching or marketing services can be delivered cost effectively, part of the three letter answer is GTM. The Internet and phones make doing remote business in the digital age fast, secure and cost effective. Try it! ##
