conducting a web conference for the first time, sign up for a
training session. Visit the “Training”

solution website (i.e.
www.conferenceplace.com) to signup!

to” guides on the web conferencing solution you are using to conduct
your meeting. They provide detailed step-by-step instructions for
using the different features and functions of each web product.
And read on for some additional suggestions that may also prove
helpful for your meetings!
If you are a
conferencing expert, here are some suggestions to ensure your meetings
run as effectively and smoothly as possible.
- Include polling questions or interactive items during your
meeting to keep your audiences’ interest piqued! - Move
electronic devices (such as Blackberries or cell phones and
associated hands-free devices, laptops, etc) away from the phone
you are using for your conference call to avoid interference with line
quality.
- If you are conducting back-to-back calls make sure to disconnect
your initial conference call line prior to dialing back in for the
next call on your Reservationless-Plus or
Reservationless-Express account. This will ensure a “flash hook”
scenario isn’t produced which feeds a loud signal into the call. - InterCall’s
web conferencing best practices provide
detailed scenarios of how to conduct your meeting and insight into
additional information you will find helpful.
