Typical Conference Call Structure
Presentations, announcements, press conferences and calls pertaining to Investor Relations that include a large number of participants are best accommodated in the "Listen Only" mode coupled with a Question and Answer (Q&A) period.
 
During a Listen Only/Q&A call, conference presenter lines are open and fully interactive for the duration of the conference. There is no limitation placed on the number of fully interactive Presenter lines you can have for your conference. Conferees, on the other hand, are placed in "Listen Only" mode throughout the presentation portion of the conference. They are only allowed to speak once the Q&A session has begun, and they must enter "14" on their touch-tone phone in order to do so.
 
The moderator controls the entire conference by way of the Communication Line. This line gives him or her totally private access to the call operators and allows the moderator to control sound quality, Q&A directives, and general call coordination.
 
Information Distribution Options
All conference participants are able to have conference sensitive documentation sent to them in minutes.
 
Blast Fax: This service faxes your conference documents to everyone on your participant list in just minutes via high-speed broadcast fax equipment. There is no limit to the number of parties you can fax to at once. Save yourself the stress of gathering and sending all these documents, and let Communiqué handle it all for you!
 
Blast Voice Messaging: This service informs your clients, employees, or target audience that you are personally inviting them to attend a meeting. The notification can be done via telephone with your voice recording, or developed here at Communiqué with the script of your choice. This service takes the burden of individual notification off your to-do list.
 
Blast E-mail: This service allows you to send information to a large number of potential call participants simultaneously via the Internet. You provide the content and addresses and we will do the rest.
 
Security
Following a conferee invitation list allows Communiqué to control participant access. If a potential participant's name does not appear on the invitation list, access will be denied or put on hold pending your approval via the Communication Line.
 
For general invitation conference calls, all requested participant documentation is provided to you via facsimile or e-mail report. Typically requested information might include the caller's name and company affiliation.
 
Conference Recording
You can choose to have your conference call recorded. Tapes or CDs can be forwarded to one or multiple locations. Your call can also request re-broadcast immediately following the event through our Digital Replay service. This service is available to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This is a great alternative for participants who are unable to attend the live call. Calls can be archived for up to a year.
 
Audio WebStreaming
This service allows you to reach unlimited audiences via the Internet. All that is required to access a WebStream is a multimedia PC. Reach all of your investors, analysts, and media with out interruptions.
 
We highly recommend Audio WebStreaming for Investor Relations calls and other calls involving members of the media. Audio WebStreaming gives the media access to the information you intend to make public, and prevents them from interrupting during your conference.
