Sometimes the most illustrative stories happen in your own back yard.

One of our sales team members, Susan,  recently endured a crazy ordeal getting to a meeting in Philadelphia. The face-to-face meetings I often have with Susan take place with a simple touch of a button using our Sony video conferencing system. But the irony and reality of it all is that our sales team, while in the VC industry, spends a lot of time in the field and on the road explaining the benefits of video conferencing to those that don’t yet have the video conferencing technology in use at their organizations.  If nothing else, the following events that unfolded proved to the clients she met with why video conferencing is a much-needed investment.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics claims “Americans make more than 405 million long-distance business trips per year.”  I’m sure you have a travel “horror story” that could have been avoided by holding the meeting from the convenience of your office video conferencing system.  Leave a note and share your story below!
