Convenience, Affordable, Permance, while enhancing employee productivity and the school’s reputation with one single investment in your campus tours!

Bluetooth Talking-Points Campus Tours would be automated guided tours for prospective students and families. The tours would be available in a variety of languages and can be simply activated by using a mobile phone, bluetooth headset and the embedded Talking-Points on site. For more information, check out my full venture!

Thanks Ernie and Barrie! I think I fixed it now. You can now watch the video. I changed the settings on my Youtube video.

FOR THE FULL VENTURE…. EMAIL me :   msirischanatgmaildotcom   or you can take a look at the Media Gallery as well on our blog. I uploaded the presentation there.

A Scripted Pitch on E-ducativa:

Me: “Hello.”

You: “Hi.”

Me: “Have you heard about E-ducativa?”

You: “No. I haven’t.  What is it?”

Me: “Well, let me amaze you! E-ducativa is a provider of learning platforms and open source systems for the Spanish and the South American school market.”

You: “So? What does that have to do with, at least, the Canadian or the North American markets, let alone the global market?”

Me: “Ah, excellent question! In fact, I was hoping that you would ask.  However, for me to REALLY pique your interest, you will have to view my PowerPoint presentation on E-ducativa.”

You: “Oh, I get it! This is an investment pitch! Sort of like ‘bait-n-hook’”.

Me: “Yes, this is an investment pitch.  But, no! This is not ‘bait-n-hook’.  This is bait and invest!”

You: “Well, I’m all about investing and making money.  So, yes, I will check out your PowerPoint presentation.”

Me: “Good! After all, as investors, we are all looking to make a return on investment!”

Parents need a safe, online space where their children can access qualified help with their homework or find tutoring for specific subjects.  Parents want to know that the adult tutors there are real, qualified teachers with the ability to skillfully aid their children as they progress through school.  The HomeworkClub.bc.ca is such a place.  Students in grades K-12 connect online in real time virtual classrooms to discuss subjects, questions, and ideas under the supervision of qualified teachers. This service is accessible 4-10pm weekdays and 10-10pm on weekends.  Student members attend when it is convenient for them, no appointment necessary.

Hi All,

I just wrapped up my pitch. You can find it at Screencast.com

I apologize for the sound quality in advance. At least I kept my mug out of the project!  I think the building has a lot of floors or I had a slow elevator because I couldn’t keep it below 45 secs.

For the full spiel (imbedded in an anotated PowerPoint with Digity and Prezi links) email me at jameseri@interchange.ubc ca or jerichardson@telus.net . I can also copy you on my reflections if you so choose (true confessions?)
