I've probably never met you, but I bet I can tell you two things about yourself. I know you love to make money and I know your business loves to save money.

To a business, money is like food; enabling it to grow and mature. You want to make sure you keep feeding your business while opening up new sources of revenue and sealing off points where you're bleeding and losing money. That's exactly what this article is intended to do; find a couple of points where you may be losing money and sealing them off.

Know Your Surroundings

In case you didn't know, Motorola's product depth is incredible. While their reputation is and always will be as the leading manufacturer of two-way radios, you're doing your company a complete injustice by not researching their other business products.

It's unfortunate that most people have never heard of Motorola Canopy or Motobridge, but don't worry; it's not your fault. You may have never been presented with either option.

So, now that I'm going about fixing everything by doing my job and educating you, the ball is in your court to apply what we have to offer. Now, let's see how you can improve your business or organization and find ways to save money while increasing your efficiency, score!

Motorola Canopy:

Trying to connect your internet to a remote location? Thinking about all the work involved with it? Someone has to run the wires, at your expense of course. Then, someone else takes ownership of those lines, and sends you the bill every month. If this sounds like an issue in your business, we've just identified a bleeding point and need to seal this off fast. So, how can we?

Canopy enables you to extend your network wirelessly to remote locations. The connection is secure, reliable, and easy to set up. What used to take days can now be done in a few hours. Best of all, once you purchase Canopy, you own your system link. This means you can get rid of expensive monthly charges. For this reason, Canopy typically pays for itself in about a year. Best of all, it's not an expensive replacement.

There's so much you can do with this platform, I'd run out of space before I got done telling you. However, based on the few things I've mentioned, you can probably use your imagination to see the other problems Canopy can solve. Luckily, I have a link to additional information about Canopy. There are plenty of Account Representatives like myself out there standing by, waiting to assist you if you have any questions.

Motobridge:

If you're in Public Safety, you probably know what the P25 standard is. In case you're not in Public Safety, I'll quickly bring you up to speed. Basically, P25 stands for Project 25 and is a suite of standards used by local, state, and federal public safety agencies. It requires that all police, fire, and EMS communications equipment be interoperable so that they can coordinate in an emergency situation.

Unfortunately, it can be expensive to upgrade all of your equipment, and is generally budgeted for over time. I have two bits of good news to share with you concerning this. One, if you're a firefighter, the government does provide assistance in the Fire Grant Support Act. If you'd like to learn more about this, contact me or another authorized Motorola Representative and we can help out your department. Also, you can visit the official assistance to firefighter's webpage by clicking here

The other piece of good news concerns Motorola. Motorola sums up Motobridge best with this description:

"MOTOBRIDGE eliminates communication barriers by connecting incompatible voice communications systems instantly. The bridges between systems are standing by 24/7, ready to be activated the moment they are needed so communication is immediate and seamless.

...Now you have a new and cost-effective option for quickly establishing communications between disparate systems in support of emergency response, day-to-day operations, and compliance with Homeland Security grant requirements. With MOTOBRIDGE Interoperable Solution you can achieve interoperability now." If you're worried about the expense and challenge of interoperability, this is definitely an item you'll want to look into.

Both of these are powerful pieces of equipment and have proven to be invaluable to some businesses and organizations. We even use Canopy here at our shop and believe it or not, you can make additional income with it as well as an internet provider. I'd urge you to take a visit to Motorola.com and browse their catalog. You may find technology you never even knew existed. In the meantime Mr. or Mrs. Business...keep eating!
