Understanding the importance of the Campaign Registry, 10dlc regulation compliance

“SMS is the most important form of communication mankind has ever known,” says Tommy Sheahan, CEO & Co-Founder of Red Oxygen. According to Sheahan, texting is the first form of communication to have ever made it possible to send a single message to over seven billion individual phones serving seven billion individuals, and to have it seen within fifteen minutes. Even previous forms of mass communication, such as radio and television, can’t match that level of mass deliver to billions of individuals. Sheahan, who has been a leader, innovator and founding business owner in the SMS field for twenty years, takes us back to the dawn of texting, how texting became standardized and how texting became the crown jewel of communication, essentially nudging aside voice and other forms of communication.

Red Oxygen is the MSP uniquely suited to handle billing and compliance along with providing excellent SMS service. We learn about the campaign registry and about the way Red Oxygen helps customers get 10dlc compliance. Sheahan discusses a set of services Red Oxygen offers, while pointing out how even the smallest businesses are at once empowered by SMS but are vulnerable to no knowing how to navigate the SMS regulatory landscape where steep fines and other severe sanctions, can occur. “Your traffic can get blocked by the carrier,” Sheahan caution noting, fees and fines can escalate. “You need a plan of action.”

Live from NAB Chris Lennon or Ross Video and Prosenjit Sen of Quark.ai discuss how Generative AI is likely to impact the media technology space. “I think it’s hard to overstate the importance of AI,” says Lennon, describing the moment as an inflection point and the times filled with opportunity. Lennon sees enormous upside with the revolution with improved accuracy and information. In this podcast Sen and Lennon discuss the value of generative AI for broadcasting, and other industries. Critically, Sen discusses the problem of the Generative AI GAP and a very important approach to making sure that this gap is closed. “Garbage in, garbage out,” Sen reminds listeners.

“It just makes your resources more productive,” says Steve Runyon, Vice President of Sales at TeamCentral. In this podcast, Runyon discusses how data can be synchronized with an iPaaS solution and how this saves money, creates efficiencies, and even helps facilitate dynamic changes in places such as the telco and retail spaces. Runyon walks us through how iPaaS automates ticketing, eliminates human error, slims down time and resources dedicates to error prone older methods of data management. We learn about improved operational efficiency and improved accuracy. “With iPaaS you can achieve those goals rather seamlessly,” adds Runyon noting how iPaaS creates operational efficiency for the service providers. Runyon noted that iPaaS solves many challenges the SPs, in a sense, have learned to live with, but may not know that there’s an alternative that saves money and frees up resources for other uses.

DTEN was a major focus for many attendees of this year’s Enterprise Connect 2023. The company sells a family of all-in-one video conference solutions. On its own, that offering would be more central than ever to enterprise needs, as organizations continue to invest in hybrid workforce models. In this podcast, Nia Celestin, Head of Marketing, discusses how the company’s AI-powered All-In-One DTEN D7X is on the cusp of certification. According to Celestin, this is a big story for both enterprises and their channel partner vendors. DTEN is often used with Zoom. Microsoft Teams is becoming ubiquitous in the enterprise world, so integration with Teams is a very big story. Advanced audio, easy deployment, easy to use and with touch technology, enabling white boarding and document annotation, are a part of the story. We also learn about a desktop solution, for Teams users, under development. We also learn about new products that address challenges people have had with things such as camera angle, for video conferencing.

“Nearly nobody will answer a call from an “unknown caller”,” says Michael Coleman SVP, Enterprise Sales and Channel Chief, First Orion. Abusive use of cell phones by bad actors has drastically reduced the effectiveness of making outbound calls to customer cell phones. Large organizations with multiple outbound numbers, get stuck with “called unknown”, undermining large investments in contact centers, and much smaller but just as critical outbound calls from repair, delivery, and other typical outreach calls. In this podcast, Coleman discusses branded communication, including their Inform, Engage and other services, plus the technologies that enable them. The results enable a company to clearly identify itself to cell phone users, avoiding the cost and consequences of missed calls.
