Though I've probably never met you, I bet I can tell you three things about yourself. I know you love to increase your money, that your business loves to save its money, and that you like cool technology. So for those of you who have read this article before it was updated, sit tight and bear through my "money is like food" speech again real quick and we'll get to the good stuff...
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
Motorola's product depth is fairly deep and choc full of some cool gizmos. While they've built their reputation on two-way radios, their catalog includes other things such as wireless internet, remote location bridges, and handheld computers.
Motorola Canopy:
Motorola canopy is an item you may be interested if you're thinking about adding a remote location to your network. The traditional way to do this is through something like a T1 line ran between the two buildings. A common complaint with this a T1 line is its cost.
Lines have to be dug and ran between both locations. Then, someone else takes ownership of the line, resulting in at least a $300-$400 per month charge. If this sounds like 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 the system link. This means you can get rid of the expensive monthly charges. For this reason, Canopy typically pays for itself in about a year.
The Motorola "Q"
The Motorola "Q" is one of the coolest devices to come out in a long time. It's also probably one of the most useful. The "Q" is a new mobile phone/device that doubles as a web browser and has a full keypad.
By my description, you would expect another bulky device. However, Motorola has made the "Q" the smallest of the next generation "smart phones". It's got style to match its light weight, with a sleek chrome trim. It supports both BlueTooth Technology and Windows Mobile 5.0, so you can browse the web from virtually anywhere.
If you're the busy buisness type that's always on the go, it may be worth your while to visit Motorla's official Q site: radios motorola Even if you're not, its still cool looking. Devices like this allow you to save time and money since you don't have to constantly run to your office to conduct business.
