All of which is enough to leave you bereft of festive spirit before the tinsel is on the tree (unless you read our office party survival guide, that is).

But ’tis still the season to be jolly and all that, so get your festive groove on and spread that seasonal cheer by changing to our Christmas hold music…

How to set up a conference call to Panama

Hear the name ‘Panama’ and you’ll immediately think ‘canal’ – the Panama Canal is a 77 km ship canal that revolutionised maritime trade by becoming a conduit between the Atlantic and the Pacific – but it may be time to start thinking of Panama as a business opportunity. If so, here’s how to arrange a conference call to Panama.

Panama has the fastest-growing economy in Latin America – experiencing an average annual growth of 8.7% over the last ten years. It also has what can be considered full employment with  just 4.5% of the population out of work.

And unlike most other Central American countries, Panama’s economy is based on a large service sector, which accounts for 80% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

If you’re thinking of setting up in Panama, it’s worth checking out the Gov.UK guide, and you’ll also need a low-cost, reliable international conference call provider, and that’s where ConferenceCall.co.uk comes in…

How to set up a conference call to India

India and the UK have strong cultural and trade links – but trade has deteriorated over recent years and the two countries are no longer strong trade partners, and many big businesses have been put off trading with the country following billion pound tax rows and unpaid fees.

Even so, India is one of the world’s fastest growing economies and the UK has a lot to offer India as far as universities, infrastructure and engineering goes, so if you’re not already trading with India, it could be time to start thinking about it.

Sat over 4,000 miles to the east though and keeping in touch could be a problem – but not if you do so via teleconference, or conference call, and ConferenceCall.co.uk is one of the few operators offering low-cost dial-in numbers to India.

And a conference call can be set up in a few simple steps, here’s how…

How to set up a conference call to Georgia

If you have clients or associates in Georgia, you may find it’s getting increasingly difficult to do business given the troubles in that part of the world – particularly now that Russia is moving to suspend the Free Trade Agreement it signed with Georgia two decades ago in retaliation for Georgia’s Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) with the European Union.

So it could make sense to keep in touch with Tblisi via teleconference – and you can do so in three steps using nothing more than a landline or mobile phone.

Here’s how…
