Global Call Answering Service

Go Global with our global numbers and answering serviceIntroducing Global Call Answering Service – a new promotional offering for businesses wanting to go global!

For most companies around the world, whether big or small, the phone is one of the most important means of communication. Having your own virtual phone number which comes with a virtual receptionist could be really beneficial for your company. Here are some of the benefits of having international telephone numbers that are answered by our virtual receptionists:

1. Own More Than One Number: Your business can have more than one number, and the best part is, you can have local numbers in 60 countries. This means that clients from all over the world can contact you without worrying about the toll charges.

2. Low Cost  Virtual Receptionist: Our service comes with an answering service. This means every single call to your international virtual phone number will be attended by your very own virtual receptionist. This means you do not have to hire a full time staff.

3.Make Your Company Seem Larger:  Having local numbers in 60 countries makes your company appear to be much more larger than it is. This is impressive to a global buyer. Even if your business only consists of handful of employees or perhaps even just yourself, you can make it seem like it is large with many different numbers across the several countries.

4. Takes A Way The Need For Pricey Upgrades: If you want to set up many different phone numbers for your office, you will need to spend a lot on PaBX, wiring and communications set up. However, if you use our virtual call center, it eliminates the need to do so. Let us settle everything, from setting up of phone numbers to answering your phone calls.

Service Scope:

We provide global telephone numbers and combine that with our responsive English language answering service for businesses that want to enable their global clients to connect with them without having to pay for expensive toll charges.

You get a dedicated inbound phone number in any one of the 60 countries we currently operate in and route all inbound calls from that number to our call center where our customer service representatives answer them. Think of them as your very own virtual receptionists that answer the calls and email the details of the call to you.

Transcription Service in Singapore: Sharing The skills

Futuregen is now working closely with clients of SPD (Society for the Physically Disabled) to train vision impaired people with necessary skills to transcribe audio into microsoft word documents.

While the transcription service training project seems to be too ambitious for the visually impaired, they do have a higher level of sensitivity to sound – their listening skills are much better than normal people. Hence when SPD contacted Futuregen to share its skills in transcription service, we readily agreed to give it a try.

The initial results are heartwarming. Some of SPD’s clients were able to transcribe the audio with 94% accuracy. This is not bad for a first try where usual participants would get 70-80% accuracy on their first try.

In case you are wondering, SPD’s Clients who were visually impaired used a software called JAWS to navigate around their PC without the aid of sight. Our plan is to engage SPD’s clients in offering transcription service in Singapore.

CONFERENCE TITLE: Effective Models for Sustainable Growth
SPEAKER: Jennifer Morris
CONFERENCE DATE: April 06, 2011

Operator:: You are listening to the “DFJ Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders Series” brought to you weekly by the Stanford Technology Ventures Program. You can find podcast and videos of these lectures online at ecorner.stanford.edu.

Moderator: So Jennifer Morris, she’s from Conservation International in DC. She’s the Executive Vice President for this organization that you may or may not have heard about. I’ve had the pleasure and honor of knowing about this organization for quite a while. They’re in the same sort of ballpark as World Wildlife Foundation, and others like that.

But this – what’s interesting about Conservation International is they bring an entrepreneurial spirit to environmental non-profit work. Then what is ironic, like it, feels like an internet start-up company.

Even though they have offices in 60 companies — countries, excuse me — offices in 60 countries all over this planet, Jennifer in particular, is interesting. She’s on the leadership team. One of the senior, senior management of the – this NGO, but she also is responsible for their connecting with business. And all – and running it – running even funds that feel like a Venture Capital Fund.

So they’re – so what’s fun is to compare this to the principles of Silicon Valley. How are the principles of Silicon Valley being able to be used by organizations that are in social innovation?

So without further ado, let’s welcome a graduate of Emory University and Columbia University. Let’s welcome her at Stanford University — Jennifer Morris.

Operator: You are listening to the “DFJ Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders Series” brought to you weekly by the Stanford Technology Ventures program. You can find podcast and videos of these lectures online at ecorner.stanford.edu.

It is my extreme pleasure to welcome our final speaker for eWeek this week. It is Guy Kawasaki, who for many of you needs no introduction. Guy’s original claim to fame was when he was the original Apple evangelist. I remember reading his columns years and years ago. And I am certainly a Mac enthusiast myself.

He was a founding partner of Garage Technology Ventures. He has been involved with writing. He has written 10 books, “Rules for Revolutionaries”, “The Art of the Start”. And his new book, “Engagement”.

I’ve had a chance to read and give (unintelligible) and (enchantment). (I think that’s going to be your next book. Can that be your next book, “Engagement” – “Enchantment”, sorry. But I did get to read…

Guy Kawasaki: She’s a close personal Friend.

Transcript: TWIS.org Dec 9, 2010

Kirsten: This show is brought to you by listeners like you and your contributions. We couldn’t do it without you. Thanks.

Justin: Disclaimer. Disclaimer. Disclaimer. You don’t know everything. In fact, everything you do know when added up amounts to less than everything you don’t know and what you don’t know could kill you. What you don’t know could also save your life, or save you time, or make you money or provide an insight into something you thought to knew, or confirm suspicion, or make you more suspicious, or change the way you see the world for the better, or change the way you see the world for the worse.

It’s safe to say that what you don’t know could potentially do you more good or more harm than everything you know that you don’t know put together and with this in mind the following hour promises that while results will differ dramatically in terms of outcomes. The process of learning new things has been dramatically refined into a reliable system of questioning what we thought we knew, known simply as This Week in Science. Coming up next.

Justin: Good Thursday, Kirsten.
