Setting up a conference call is now easier than ever.
There are many ways to invite your clients/colleagues to a conference call but these are the two most common.
- Inviting guests by email.
- Inviting guests by phone.
When inviting clients/colleagues to a conference call it is very important to:
- Already have a date and time that you wish to start the conference.
- Make sure you quote you 6 digit guest code followed by the # key to all clients/colleagues.
- Know the basic dtmf commands for attending a call. (eg Muting you line *6) Please click here for a list of commands.
- Send each client/colleague a copy of any documents that you plan to discuss during the call ahead of time.
- Give the nearest available dial in number to each client/colleague. For a list of numbers please click here.
- If you plan to use the Web Conferencing tool, make sure all clients/colleagues know how to access the Web Conferencing tool.
