You have made the decision – you are buying a new phone system. You chose Gaynor Telesystems, Inc. to be your phone system installation company. You ask yourself, “Now what?” You know you want an easy, simple, and most importantly smooth transition. Here are 5 steps to help make your installation hassle-free.
Training has become a critical component of staff development. It is not uncommon in the work place for changes to require additional training. Whether you have an older phone system with voicemail or are getting a new system, adding an auto attendant will increase the need for staff training. Your reasons for an automated attendant can vary from needing less staff to answer the calls, to wanting a consistent message when each person calls in, or even that you are growing and want the calls to be answered in a timely fashion.
There are many reasons why you might be considering new office phone systems. Your old system is slow and inefficient. Your business is growing and your receptionist is overloaded trying to keep up with calls. Your employees are out in the field more often and are missing important calls. Just to name a few big ones. There are also many, many, things to think about when you decide it’s time for new office phones systems at your business. But before you decide on the features you want and have to choose the features you actually need, pause for a few moments and consider these key components.
You’re already familiar with what an automated attendant is, you just might not know it. The greeting below might sound familiar:
“Thank you for calling The Tech Company, where business and technology come together." If you know your party's extension, you may dial it at any time. Otherwise choose from one of the following options. For sales, press '1'. For support, press '2'. For our regular business hours, press '3'. For accounting, press '4'. Otherwise press '0' for the receptionist or stay on the line and somebody will assist you shortly."

CCTV school security camera systems are not a new thing, but have been a topic of conversation for many years now. Schools not only have to be aware of crime from outside individuals, but also from the actions of students on campus.
No longer are schools looking at security solutions as just cameras, they are wanting to see what other projects are available for safety. Here are a few options available for security measures for schools.
Much like Gaynor Telesystems did 40 years ago, many small businesses start out in a room in a home. There are many ways to be successful as a small start-up competing with larger, more established firms. One very important factor is professionalism. You might not be ready for office phone systems, however, best practices dictate you should not use your personal cell phone for your new business venture.
You have probably heard about many lawsuits where a company is being sued by a person injured on its property. Today many of these accidents are caught on security camera systems. As a business owner I am sure you are aware of your exposure in this area and work hard to maintain a safe environment – but what happens when the worst case scenario occurs?
Gaynor Telesystems Inc. was founded in 1974 by my parents, Eamonn (Gus) and Patricia Gaynor in our living room. Since I was a wee child when it started, I will do my best to retell this story. My father had a very successful career with Pacific Telephone but felt the need to take the risk to go out on his own. Quite a bold move for a couple with a mortgage and 3 small children!
Given the recent events in the world and in our local areas, more businesses are starting to look at employee safety, both inside the office and in the outlying areas. With the high rise of criminal activity, business owners may jump into buying a CCTV solution without checking out all the facts. Here are some thoughts you may want to consider about camera and door access control systems when deciding on the best solution for you and your business.
Each month we hear and read about more school campus tragedies. These may be on college campuses, high schools or even elementary schools. No school is immune to the nightmares of lockdowns caused by those possibly seeking to do harm. School bell systems are one of the more important tools used in school communication solutions. Today’s school intercom has more options and is not just a speaker in a hallway. Here are some of the trends today.
We like to think we live in a world where our person and property will be kept safe. In reality we hear almost daily about robberies or break-ins. Even car thefts that are happening in and around our small business. We might worry about that last employee who has to walk to their car. We worry that our office will be closed for a few days during the holiday season and that leaves a giant window for thieves to come and break-in. At Gaynor we understand these concerns. Maybe you have considered a security camera system before, or maybe the news of the latest break-in has you rethinking. Before you head to your local Costco to buy that $1,995 special, check out these reasons for using an expert.
Today’s CCTV security cameras offer solutions that are built for growth. No longer do small businesses or small departments have to go into debt just to buy a CCTV system. The systems are built for growth and expansion, and are built with different quality of products. One thing still is clear with CCTV camera solutions by Gaynor - even if you’re buying a lower end CCTV system you are purchasing a business grade system.
