School Alerts by Phone Help Administrators Communicate with Community

School administrators are becoming increasingly aware of their responsibilities to notify parents, teachers and the community at large about emergencies, events and schedules.  The last thing a principal or administrator wants to hear is, "Why didn't you tell us?"

By far, the fastest and least expensive way to get school alerts and notifications out is by phone.  It's instant and messages can be recorded and sent out immediately to both live answers and answering machines.

Why do we think our system is the best?  Three reasons:  1) There is no hardware or software to buy.  That alone can save a school district tens of thousands of dollars.  2) You can access the system from any Internet connection.  Superintendents or principals can use it from their homes if necessary.  3) You only pay for what you use, thus saving the taxpayers a small fortune in unnecessary costs.  There are no monthly usage fees, maintenance costs or long term contracts.  If you don't use the system, there's no charge.  How are you going to beat that?  (For those districts that need an exact amount to allocate every month for budget and planning purposes, we can make arrangements to make it work.)

The key is being prepared.  Schools should have their phone lists already uploaded on our system.  You can upload lists online in any kind of database or Excel spreadsheet.  You can have any number of separate lists stored on the system.  You can have one for parents, and/or each sports team can have their own.

So the next time there's a blizzard or school closing, or heaven forbid, an emergency, you can have the best phone broadcasting system ready 24/7 at your fingertips.  You'll know you are not only providing the best information to your constituent groups, but you're doing it in a way that will save the district taxpayers precious dollars that can be spent in other areas.  Give us a call today and we'll show you how it works.
