Avaya Phone Systems - Contest Entry


Here are the contest rules. Do you think we answered the question, or do you think the video is too generic (from a reason "why" we need new phones) to be considered effective?

What can I win?

It's simple: Tell us about the disconnects that are hurting your business, and if you win, we'll help you fix them.

The disconnect could be technical—like an outdated phone system, or a patched-together "system" that's unreliable. Or it could be a human problem—like frustrated customers or a key employee who no one can get a hold of. Or it could be a combination of both.

Whatever the problem is, tell us about it in a short video or written essay. You can be funny. You can be serious. You can be desperate. But however you do it, be sure to submit it by October 15, 2009.

The contest rules require a description of a disconnection problem.

The outcome of your disconnection problem is clearly paid off at the end. It also is well produced in a B-movie sort of way. The average contest entry probably will not have Schupp's audio and visual effects -- a nice advantage.

However, I'm not clear if calls are being dropped because you are an idiot or the system is malfunctioning. If the cause of the malfunction is unknown, then the story is almost complete. Consider title, subtitles or credits that reinforce Schupp’s disconnection issues are unknown. Or, conversely, more clearly illustrate you are an idiot or the phone system sucks.
