In the world of telecommunications – or any industry really – there are few companies or solutions that are as fun to say as "trixbox." And, while many have heard of this innovative system, they may be confused as to what it can deliver or the benefits that it can provide to users.
In an effort to provide clarity and extend the value of the trixbox product suite, Fonality (
News -
Alert) has announced trixbox Live! This free, live gathering of the trixbox community invites users, potential resellers and other attendees to meet other trixboxers and those behind the solution in a special, one-day event.
To be sure that Fonality can maximize the value of the trixbox solutions and generate even more buzz among the community, this event will NOT be an on-line seminar, but instead a LIVE, in-person event.
Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss and collaborate face-to-face with other users and creators to ensure they are optimizing the technology that is offered in this product line. Attendees will learn how to do effective sales engineering, maximize their sales processes, as well as learn about all of the features of both trixbox CE and trixbox Pro.
To continue to build on the value of this event, Fonality has announced the addition of a new key presenter – Larry Augustin, an open source pioneer and founder of VA Linux / SourceForge and Slashdot. Augustin's expertise in the marketplace lends significant value to this community and is expected to be the highlight of this event.
For those seeking to create a successful business selling and installing trixbox systems in their market, this live event will enable:
--Access to the latest features of trixbox CE version 2.6.1
--Experience of the power of the new trixbox Pro 2.0
--Discovery of the value of the trixbox solutions
--Learning how to sell and market trixbox solutions
--Building of a personal network of resources
Attendees will also have the opportunity to win great raffle prizes, while also receiving a free demo kit worth more than $1,100; a trixbox hat; trixbox t-shirt; and free lunch. With so much promised, there is nothing to lose by attending.
Interested parties will also have the opportunity to meet speaker Augustin, trixbox founder Andrew Gillis, Fonality Community Director Kerry Garrison (News - Alert), Fonality Sales Engineer Chris Sherwood and Brad Pitt – Fonality Director of Sales.
