Tips to Keep Your Social Media Accounts Secure

Date: Wednesday, January 16, 2019 @ 1 pm Eastern

This week on the show you learn how to protect and "lock down" your social media accounts, as Eric shares with you how to enable two-step verification for your Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter accounts. This feature is also available on many of the other social networking sites such as Snapchat, Instagram, Pinterest, and others... and is a great way to enhance the security and protection of your online accounts.

Plus, to help you create and manage a complex and unique password for all of your accounts (yes, you should NOT be using the same password for multiple accounts), Eric shares a service called LastPass. While there are others out there, this happens to be the one that Eric and his team use to keep passwords and important information safe and secure.

So, let 2019 be the year that you put security first and get those social media accounts locked down (and start to use complex and UNIQUE passwords). Enjoy!

Kicking off 2019 - GoToWebinar Threw Us a Curveball

Date: Wednesday, January 9, 2019 @ 1 pm Eastern

This week will be a short show, and quite honestly we're not sure how many of you will be able to join the session live. You see, somehow the recurring sessions for the show were mysteriously deleted from the system at the end of 2018. This causes the web links that our subscribers have in their calendar events to no longer work! 

After about an hour on the phone and even getting transferred to a supervisor to see how we could "undo" this expiration issue, no luck. The session(s) all had to be recreated again. This also means that anyone interested in joining the show live will now need to update their event link, or no longer be able to attend the show! We're so sorry... :-(

With that out of the way... this week's show will provide a quick recap of a recent webinar that Eric conducted as part of his Banker Education Series show with Jason Henrichs and JP Nicols from FinTech Forge and their new innovation initiative called Ally Labs. Regardless of whether you're in the banking space or not, Jason and JP share some excellent insight on how you can embrace innovation and what steps you need to be taking (regardless of industry) to remain relevant to today's consumer.

The Future of Online Conversation and Support - Let's Talk About Chatbots

Date: Wednesday, September 5, 2018, @ 1 pm Eastern

After a bit of a hiatus, the show is officially back this week with an episode you won't want to miss. If you're looking for the latest way to engage your website visitors and develop a conversation with them (or provide exceptional service) you need to put chatbots on your list of "must-have" tools for the next generation consumer - chatbots!

This intelligent messaging solution is powered by AI (artificial intelligence) and you can program it to answer common questions automatically, even when your business isn't open. Visitors to your website, social media, or even via their mobile device can easily carry on a conversation with you via chat, one of the most popular ways to communicate today. In fact, statistics say that across ALL generations, people prefer messaging 3x more than face-to-face or even phone conversations. That's a powerful statistic!

Joining the conversation to share his knowledge with us will be David Adleman, head of Business Development Partnerships and Alliances with a company by the name of Digital Air Strike. David's company, ChatPath, was recently rolled into the DAS family and he has been helping businesses engage and build relationships via chat and messaging technology for years. We'll talk about some of the industry trends and the growing popularity of chat, the elements of an effective chatbot strategy, what you should expect from a chatbot vendor, and how to get started with your own chatbot solution right away.
