Members Demand More...We Deliver With Audio Conference CD-ROMS     Through the years, sessions and speakers rely more and more on PowerPoint and handouts to deliver educational content. A medical speech on tape or CD is simply insufficient when the speaker refers over and over to charts and graphs. Just as your organization probably follows as many possible suggestions from conference evaluations, we too aim to provide what your members really want. The result...ACTS' Audio Conference CD ROMs. ACTS personnel will audio record the sessions digitally, edit the audio, collect the PowerPoint and handout files, and produce a menu-driven CD ROM that proudly conveys the look of your conference package. Now purchasers have all the information they want in their hands and as a one to five disc package they will save hundreds and even thousands of dollars over the mountain of audio tapes or CDs of the same material. Call 800-642-2287 now to find out just how easy it is to add value and convenience to your next meeting.

How Does Quality Marketing Benefit You?   Substantially higher sales! Adding the Audio Conference CD ROM and its corresponding marketing has improved sales to a degree that larger events have doubled and tripled for some associations, and allowed us to reduce and/or eliminate any service charges from many smaller meetings. Chances are good that your concern for members far outweighs monetary benefit to your association, but don't take for granted that dramatic increases in sales stem from happy customers receiving exactly what they want...the entire conference (audio and visual) for about the same price they previously got a handful of tapes. When all marketing pieces look like your conference package, who is providing members this wonderful resource?...You! Call 800-642-2287 now to begin reaping the rewards of our labor.

How We Make You Look Good With Marketing. Why Just the CD ROM?    As individual session recording products, there is little marketing potential. An order form listing the sessions, prices and order information placed in registration packets was about all that could be done. The product was just too broad to market in any way that makes sense. With the Audio Conference CD ROM you now have one concise package to market to your members. Using the same graphics you use for your conference program, ACTS will design 22" x 28" signs (pictured right) to arrange in hallways near breakout sessions and half page flyers (pictured left) to place on general session chairs. Not only does the marketing look good and direct people to the sales location, but it briefly and succinctly explains the Audio Conference CD ROM.		For Speakers to Inform and Inspire
Synchronized CD ROMs...For Better or Worse    Perhaps the ultimate tool available to your members is synchronized audio and PowerPoint RealMedia CD ROMs. While several hours of labor per session must be factored into the cost of this product for synchronizing, it is in many ways the most desirable media for sharing exact educational material as presented in meeting sessions. We com-bine the digitally captured audio and PowerPoint slides from each session and convert it to a Real Media show. The slides will "flip" automat-ically at the correct time, providing users the experience of actually sitting in the meeting. The CD ROM can be played using a computer with the download of free RealPlayer software from www.real.com.		Continuing Education Credits    If your meetings provide them...so can CD ROMs. We can add a link to an online test for verifying comprehension of the session. Now you have added a tremendous value to the CD ROM package while maintaining the integrity of your accreditation process. With test results sent directly to your organization you can provide perhaps the most comprehensive and convenient means of keeping members up to the minute in new advances in their field.
What About Tapes and CDs?    With all of the benefits of newer technology, is it worth offering individual tapes and CDs? The short answer is YES. One reason is that some customers still want to purchase one or two sessions. Perhaps an even stronger argument for single session products is in maintaining the value comparison with its Audio Conference CD ROM counterpart. When the individual session order form reminds you that a 100 session set would cost you $1,000 or more it is easy to see the value of a CD ROM with PowerPoint and handouts for $149. Though the vast majority of associations have opted out of tapes (preferring CDs) it is sales that best dictates what to offer. When single session CDs are offered by mail and shipped a week after the conference, ACTS will provide digitally edited sessions as opposed to raw recordings duplicated onsite. Digital editing allows many off-mic questions to be raised, noises (caused by computers or air conditioners etc.) to be reduced or eliminated, and is received with much greater customer satisfaction. Call 800-642-2287 now for samples and/or quote.		Add Revenue With Phone Conferences    Yes! We can dial in to your phone conferences and produce the same products that we offer our live conference attendees. We can even arrange to host a phone conference for you at very little expense. Call 800-642-2287 for more information.
ACTS Conference Capture    ACTS is uniquely qualified and equipped to record meetings where each member of a board must be captured (i.e. for transcription). As the picture (right) shows, all seats of a board meeting have a wired microphone and the main speaker is given a wireless mic. We can even sound reinforce (using small anchor speakers) the main speaker while keeping the microphones stationed around the U shape table "dead" for recording or transcription purposes only. Just tell us the location and schedule, and the desired output, and we will promptly deliver it following the conference. ACTS Conference Capture requires such a talented technician (especially for whispering speaker names as they talk for transcription purposes) and a vast supply of quality equipment, that ACTS has become recognized as the most experienced, well-equipped, and economical source of this service. Call 800-642-2287 for specifics and a price quote.		Want Transcriptions?    Many meet-ings are best served by transcriptions. Transcription services are available for any recordings. We can even add them to the CD ROM. Our transcriptions are accurate and timely, usually within a week of recording the session. For recording designed especially for transcription of board meetings etc. see ACTS Conference Capture.
