TORRANCE, Calif., Making good on its promise and to honor Earth Day on April 22nd, LiveOffice Corp.'s (http://www.liveoffice.com) Conferencing division began offering a free month of web conferencing services to American commuters on April 1st. Any American worker willing to telecommute to the office at least once during the month of April is entitled to a free 30-day trial of web conferencing from LiveOffice.
"If this campaign is successful, in just one month, 100,000 Americans could save an estimated total of $2.5 million on gas, prevent more than 15 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere and conserve more than 35,000 barrels of crude oil," said Ted Heieck, IMConferencing product manager for LiveOffice Corp. "Earth Day is the ideal time for American commuters to begin making the shift from traditional car travel to telecommuting and this Challenge is the perfect opportunity for them to experience the benefits of web conferencing first hand with no long-term commitment."
By telecommuting to work once a week over the next month, the average American worker can save money, conserve gas and make a positive impact on the environment. As an example, if one car commuter telecommutes 4 times in the next month, they could:
* Save $25 on gas
* Gain 4 more hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 186 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
That means that if just 1,000 car commuters choose to telecommute 4 times in the next month, they could:
* Save $25,000 on gas
* Gain 4,000 hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 191,000 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
* Conserve 352 barrels of crude oil
In addition, if just one commuter commits to telecommuting 1 time per week for 1 year, they could:
* Save $300+ on gas
* Gain 52 more hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 2,500 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
* Conserve approximately 5 barrels of crude oil
Using web conferencing is a great alternative to the daily car commute to and from the office. Today's conferencing technologies are:
* Convenient -- as easy as creating an account and logging in to start a
scheduled or unscheduled meeting
* Cost effective -- pricing models are designed for every type of
business from SOHO/SMBs to enterprises; great features like integrated
video and audio are available for as little as $100 per month
* Easy-to-use -- conferencing has become much more user friendly,
intuitive and reliable since its initial introduction in the 1990s
* Great for appearance -- web conferencing gives workers a "professional"
appearance, even when they are working from home
LiveOffice wants to demonstrate to Americans that much of their business travel, even just to and from the office, can be replaced with effective and convenient telecommuting technology services, such as web conferencing and teleconferencing.
