As a bonus, preset hashtags are automatically added &#8211; allowing author credit and perhaps credit for the event as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is an exclusive interview with company founder Jeff Dworkin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why did you launch this company?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of those \u201csee a need, create a solution\u201d opportunities.&nbsp; I actually first came up with it at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itexpo.com\">ITEXPO <\/a>WEST 2015 in Anaheim. I think I had someone sitting in front of me who kept standing up to take pictures of slides during a keynote. &nbsp;That was the seed of the idea and it grew from there.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you expect it to be used?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two models, one is for event producers who want to create a better experience for their attendees and their speakers.&nbsp; The speakers are given a free account to use during the event.&nbsp; This version also has a sponsorship component. An event producer can sell the \u201cShareThatSlide\u201d sponsorship, just like they sell lanyards, tote bags, coffee breaks, etc. &nbsp;&nbsp;Whenever an attendee opens the app and enters a speaker&#8217;s code, they see a splash screen provided by the sponsor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1886\" height=\"1070\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tmcnet.com\/blog\/rich-tehrani\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SHARE-That-Slide-audience.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tmcnet.com\/blog\/rich-tehrani\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SHARE-That-Slide-audience.png 1886w, https:\/\/blog.tmcnet.com\/blog\/rich-tehrani\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SHARE-That-Slide-audience-768x436.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.tmcnet.com\/blog\/rich-tehrani\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/SHARE-That-Slide-audience-1536x871.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1886px) 100vw, 1886px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The other model is for anyone who presents slides.&nbsp;\nThere is no \u201csplash screen\u201d and the audience can follow along with the\npresentation on their mobile device.&nbsp; While it was originally intended for\nsomeone was presenting in front of a room, with the slides being projected, we\nalready have people who are using it in other situations.&nbsp; The most\ninteresting one is for Huddle room and \u201ccoffee shop\u201d meetings.&nbsp; They are\npresenting FROM their mobile device using the web interface.&nbsp; That way\nthey don\u2019t have to get out a laptop to show slides, nor do they have to worry\nabout if the AV system in the Huddle room or Conference room is working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What sort of response has there been so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Response has been overwhelmingly positive.&nbsp; Our test users are having a great experience, and they are sending in lots of suggestions for improvements and use cases.&nbsp; I think that is the best indicator that an idea is on target, when your users immediately start finding other uses for it and start making feature requests.&nbsp; It means that the idea or app is resonating with your audience and they see the possibilities for improvements and extensions that will make it even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/382082019?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who is the ideal customer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s really a two-part question, based on which version we are talking about.&nbsp; On one hand, it is the publisher\/event producer.&nbsp; This group loves the \u201cshare to social\u201d aspect of the application. Enabling easier sharing of the event content, and easier tracking, they have another demographic to look out regarding their event.&nbsp; It also removed much of the administrative burden if they are running a slide sharing server for their attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, it is for any speaker who wants to be more effective. &nbsp;The interactive nature of the app actually creates better engagement with today\u2019s audience.&nbsp; They are waiting to see which slides they want to save and\/or share. It helps the speaker to create better slides since you want your audience to save and share.&nbsp; For some users, they end up spending a lot of time trying to create that one \u201cshareable\u201d slide inside their presentation, thereby creating a better deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Meet Jeff and see the only UCaaS, CPaaS and Collaboration vendors that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itexpo.com\/east\/exhibitor-list.aspx\">matter&nbsp;<\/a>at the&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.itexpo.com\/\"><strong>ITEXPO<\/strong><\/a><strong>&nbsp;#TECHSUPERSHOW<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cisco, Google, IBM, 8\u00d78, AT&amp;T, ClearlyIP, Comcast Business, BlueJeans, CoreDial, Dell, Edify, Epygi, FreeSWITCH, Grandstream, Intrado, West, Konftel, Martello, NetSapiens, OOMA, Oracle, OpenVox, Peerless Network, Phone Sentry, Phone.com, Polycom, QuestBlue, RingByName, Sangoma, SingTel, Spracht, Sprint, Tallac, Telarus, TCG, Teledynamics, Teli, Telinta, Telispire, Telstra, Unified Office, Vital PBX, VoIP Supply, VoIP.MS, Windstream, XCALY, XORCOM, Yealink, Yubox, and ZYCOO.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itexpo.com\/east\/exhibitor-list.aspx\"><strong>Full List.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Join others with $8.5B+ in IT buying power who plan 2020 budgets!
