Bring Your Bills Telecom Training Training Seminar

The Bring Your Bills Telecom workshop is the first of its kind. In this
hands-on course, you will learn all aspects of telecom invoicing and analysis,
how to identify savings to efficiently manage your telecom costs, how to recover
money for your organization, and how to make a significant impact on your
company's bottom line. This workshop includes three core modules:

Invoices & Contracts
Identification, Analysis, Correction & Recovery
Optimization & Cost Control Management

Each module is a foundational building block for a proven methodology that
will enable you to negotiate credits with your telecom service providers and
implement savings strategies. Our in-class exercises, toolkit of resources,
templates, and guides will help you to immediately implement the principles,
best practices, and methodologies taught in the classroom.
