Voice Recognition Systems would
first like to thank all of our clients for 14 successful years
of being in business to provide quality speech recognition solutions
to our clients. We've seen tremendous strides in technology over
the past 14 years and with the price of computer systems dropping
drastically and becoming more affordable to everyone, advances
in software and hardware technology have made talking to your
computer easier, faster and more accurate then ever before. Keep
an eye on our site for further details. You might want to bookmark
our page for easy reference.
When Voice Recognition Systems was founded 14 years
ago, nobody had established a web site to market speech recognition
or even talk about it for that matter. We knew we needed to fill
that niche so Voice Recognition Systems web page went on line
in 1994 and became the worlds first web page for voice recognition..
At that time we had to dial long distance into a server just to
receive our e-mail! Things have certainly changed since then.
Later on we secured a domain name now known as www.talktoyourcomputer.com
What we had to establish then was what kind of
business model were we going to use? Marketing on the web wasn't
commonplace and nobody was doing it for speech recognition so
we had to develop the business model from scratch. To this day
nobody has written a book on how to market voice recognition.
Maybe we should because we don't like the way most companies approach
this business. Speech recognition is still somewhat new to the
marketplace and people who don't know about different speech recognition
software packages that are out there purchase "off the shelf"
retail store solutions that just don't work. The cheap/low price
solutions do not get the job done and we have proved this over
and over again. We never have and never will sell $49 or $199
dollar speech recognition software packages. Those who decide
to go down that road, let us say buyer beware to you in advance.
We turned away over $30,000.00 in business in 2001
and $27,000.00 in 2002 because we didn't want the headaches or
unhappy clients that would most certainly would have been the
result of it. Every week we get calls from people who have bought
"bargain basement" speech software from AOL or other
mass market discounters telling us that they can't get it to work
on their system. They are not aware that these are outdated/old
versions of software that come with $5.00 microphones and that
will not be supported by anybody after the sale. These are the
software packages that they could not sell and either must liquidate
them or be left holding worthless merchandise.
How we decided to design our business model was
to be an organization that focuses on the needs of our clients
rather then just taking orders from what then just becomes a customer.
What really is the difference between a customer and a client
anyway? If we look at Webster's Dictionary, both are nouns but
a customer is defined as one that purchases a commodity or service,
a client on the other hand is (1) a person who engages the professional
advice or services of another or (2) one that is under the protection
of another. With this in mind we decided that anyone who does
business with us is a client because we render professional advice
and services and we also attempt to protect the client from making
a wrong decision.
Our web page is of simple design. We wanted
it to also be informative and easy to navigate. Unlike other web
pages we tend to focus on speech recognition and the products
and solutions that go with them as that has contributed to our
success. We do not sell products that will not ensure your success
and the only products we do sell are thoroughly tested and carefully
thought about before they are ever offered to our clients. If
you would like our help in making your speech recognition solution
a success, please do not hesitate to contact us toll free at 800-631-8255
or international inquires call 859-266-2800.
