AllCom Introduces Campus-Cast Affinity Program
Communications
innovator AllCom announces PhonePlusPlus Affinity for Colleges and
Universities.
Nevada-based
AllCom announced today Campus-Cast, a new program offering its one-of-a-kind
PhonePlusPlus cellular enhancement package to colleges and universities
nationwide.
"Campus-Cast
offers collegiate institutions a way to stay actively in touch with
their students and faculty," said AllCom President Randall
Skala, "without having to install or maintain any infrastructure,
and without the data-management issues of a home-grown system.
"In
the event of an emergency - or just an important announcement -
the administration can get word out to the cell phone of every PhonePlusPlus
subscriber," Skala explained. "And far from costing the
school a fortune to implement, they can put Campus-Cast in place
with no out of pocket expenses. In fact, the school can actually
make money."
The PhonePlusPlus
system, recently introduced by AllCom for general consumer use,
adds a host of features that cellular phone providers "forgot"
to include; from conference calling to financial transaction handling.
Campus-Cast then ties PhonePlusPlus users on a campus together through
the time-tested underlying technology of AllCom's unique Genie platform,
used for years in multilevel organizations around the world.
"With Campus-Cast,
all the college need do is to make the service available to their
students and faculty," Skala explained. "As each new user
signs up, they automatically become part of that school's Campus-Cast
network. And for every month they remain a user of the system, the
school receives a monthly donation of $2.50 which can be used by
the school anyway they see fit. These donations continue for as
long as they remain a subscriber, even after the student graduates."
Once part of
the system, the students and faculty members can be reached individually
or en-masse with whatever message the school needs them to receive
- quickly, securely and at no charge to the school.
"Interested
schools should have their communications manager or safety officer
contact our sales team for details. On today's wide spread and wide
open campuses, communication is more important than ever. And tying
in the existing ocean of cell phones just makes sense."
