AT&T Conference Calling

conference calls can be immensely useful to your business, allowing different offices or different project teams to all participate in the same conversation. AT&T offers 3 different options for how you can use their conference calling service, and all of the options are designed to be as convenient as possible for you. Here is how to get the most out of AT&T conference calling.

1. Step 1

   Decide which AT&T conference calling option you wish to use. You can choose automatic dial-in (in which each member of the call dials a special number and they are all automatically connected), operator-assisted dialing (in which you call each member of the call with the assistance of an AT&T operator) or operator-dialed connection (in which you supply the numbers of each member to an AT&T operator and they call and connect them for you).

2. Step 2

   If you choose automatic dial-in, then you simply need to get each member of the conference call to dial the conference call number at the appointed time.

3. Step 3

   Should you choose operator-assisted dialing or operator-dialed connection, then you will need to have each member by their phone at the appointed time so that they can receive the call.

4. Step 4

   When the conference call has ended (or when the participation of certain members has ended) then each member can simply hang up the phone and be disconnected.

5. Step 5

   Should you need to add additional members or reconnect members that accidentally disconnected from the conference call, you can have them dial in (if using the automatic dial-in option) or call them and they will be added to the conference call just as the original members were at the beginning.
