What is TalkTIMR?

It's software we developed that can be downloaded to any Windows Mobile, Blackberry, and soon Palm Treo smart phone that captures your calling activity that can be reviewed at your own portal site, sent to you as an e-mail, or for users of specific billing and management software, automatically formatted as a billing record.

Is It Just a Call Log?

For many users, a real time call log is much more than they have today and would be a major improvement to reconciling paper cell phone bills with their billing systems. If done at all, this reconciliation is a labor intensive, error prone, and often late way of reconciling time and billing.

But we do a lot more than simply provide a log. We integrate your contacts from Outlook, your smart phone, and even underlying billing systems so that a high percentage of calls can automatically create their own billing tickets. Even subject matters can be included. TalkTIMR is also smart, learning as you use it, so after a month, most billing can be almost totally done with a single click.

How does it handle personal calls?

Cell phones are personal and business tools so TalkTIMR allows you to delete calls or mark calls as personal so they aren't included in call logs used for billing. You can even mark business calls as non-billable and many professionals opt to not include short calls for billing purposes.

Is it simple to use and install?

Installation takes just minutes. Many users have never downloaded software to their smart phone but it's really quick and simple with Proximiti. You receive a text message on your cell phone, you click the link, answer a few questions, and away you go. You also get a web portal that you access using your e-mail address and password, and you can do administrative functions including loading contacts.

What are the benefits to end users?

Our subscribers report two big benefits. The first is capturing previously lost revenue. Industry journals report that lawyers may lose on average $2,000 or more per month in billings from time spent on cell phones that isn't entered into legal billing systems. Their assistants are happy not to spend hours each month attempting to link cell phone records on paper with clients and hand creating billing tickets. At less than $1 per day per user, most firms report that TalkTIMR pays for itself each and every day.

Professionals are a Big Market but you note others. What are they and why?

Many business people need to track time spent on projects whether for consulting or for internal accounting needs. TalkTIMR makes that easy to do and the same framework can be deployed for a wide range of solutions. So whether tracking project or client time, TalkTIMR is a great solution for making accounting simpler and more accurate.

I've read that the IRS is cracking down on the lack of documentation for expensing cell phone usage as business expenses. Can TalkTIMR help here too?

TalkTIMR can automatically create documentation needed to justify expenses for cell phone usage whether it's a company allowance for reimbursing employees for their use of cell phones or to support company paid plans. I suspect many business people understand that the government will be looking for any and all sources of revenue and disallowing business expensing of cell phones will be a tempting target.
