“Hi, I’m Bill Collins the owner of Interstate Truck Driving School in South St. Paul, Minnesota. We’ve trained over 10,000 how to drive the big rigs in the last twelve years and I’m a Cbeyond customer.”
“One of the features that we use for Cbeyond is Virtual Receptionist. Now, all of my employees are former truck drivers and it’s very easy for them to use Virtual Receptionist. So, if it’s user friendly for them it’s great for anybody.”
“We recently expanded our business, and as we did so we had a problem coordinating students and instructors to be at the same place at the same time. Our Cbeyond rep showed us how we could use Outlook to coordinate student/instructor activities and send that information directly to the cell phones that my instructors had, so they knew where to meet their students and when. It’s a great system, and Cbeyond was the one that brought it to the table for me.”
“Several years ago I started investing time and money in a website. I was amazed at the kind of traffic a website drives. Now, I have a truck driving school, so most of my customers are middle-aged males changing careers and I had no idea so many of them were so in tuned to the Internet. And, that website is the most powerful tool that I have and of course, linking everything together it just works out fantastically to drive customers to my business.”
“A little over a year ago I attended a Cbeyond seminar on Social Media and I listened to the presenter talk about how social media was the new way to market a business. I took all of that to heart and went back and we started doing some YouTube videos. We produced our own little in-house videos, put them on YouTube, and linked those onto my website. It’s just been a dramatic increase in driving traffic to the website and driving customers into our front door. It’s a terrific way to market my business and it’s totally inexpensive and so easy to use!”
“Cbeyond customer service has been terrific. When we went online with them and were integrating this Outlook system where we were able to have a schedule on the instructors’ blackberries, it took awhile to get everything sorted out. The support staff at Cbeyond was always there to answer questions. They responded to whatever our needs were, they had to really help us learn how to use this. And, being an owner of a truck driving school, I didn’t have a high-tech staff on hand. So it was very nice to have the support staff at Cbeyond to help us through that transition.”
“I really feel comfortable with Cbeyond because I feel like I’m with a company that’s going to stay on the cutting edge of technology. I don’t want to have to switch providers as things change in the future and, as we know, technology is just expanding by leaps and bounds continuously. So it’s a very comforting feeling to be with Cbeyond and knowing that they’ll keep me in tune with the technology changes as they develop.”
