Helpful Tips for Attending a Webinar

webinarBy now, many of you know that Telpay offers a variety of payment training webinars.  Knowing that we offer these webinars is one thing but, have you actually attended one? What is holding you back?

We have heard a number of re occurring questions from first time webinar attendees and we want to share them with you.  Knowing what to expect from our webinars will help you in many ways.

Here are some tips to consider:

  1. Know Your Time Zone! The Telpay office is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba; therefore, we  schedule our webinars in Central Time.  Whether you are on the West Coast or the East Coast, make sure to apply the webinar start time to your own time zone.
  2. Audio Options.  When you log into the webinar, there will be two options for audio on the Webinar.
    • Call in on your phone: audio phone number provided to you so you can hear what the webinar presenter is saying
    • Computer Speakers: select this audio option and turn on your computer speaker
  3. Attendees are on Mute.  Out of respect for all those trying to hear and learn on our webinars are muted for attendees.  We ask that you type in your questions in the question box and we will thoroughly answer every question asked at the end of the webinar.

  4. Don’t worry! If you have to log in late or leave early, we are happy to follow up with any of the information you miss. We also offer a variety of demo videos that supplement the content covered in our training webinars

Now that you are more prepared to attend a webinar, you can register for any of our upcoming training topics here. And remember, all our webinars are scheduled in Central Time!

Get More with Less- Go Paperless

april-2015-header

In today’s business world, it’s all about more.  More time, more money and my personal favorite, more holidays!  But, when it comes to paper, we can all agree that we want to use less.  In a perfect world, we could get all the “more” that we want and still use less paper. I don’t want to go as far as saying our world is perfect but there is an ideal solution available right at your fingertips…electronic payments!

Electronic payments save you time by streamlining your payments process (you’ll have more time), they are cheaper than the price of a stamp (more money) and they allow you to email payments for approval while away from the office (more holiday time).  And the best part is electronic payments are paperless – eliminating paper cheques and envelopes (more green!).

Find out more by joining a webinar on Telpay’s electronic payments solution.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL WEBINARS ARE SCHEDULED IN CENTRAL TIME. Please adjust the webinar start times according to your time zone.
