Green Light Go! Amazon Echo Auto… Your Next Sales Tool? | Thingee’s Tech-Talk
Our cars have become mobile offices for so many of us, especially those in sales roles. Smart technology has helped that progression, but let’s face it, it can be distracting and that’s not optimal when we’re driving. Enter Amazon Echo Auto. With this product, Amazon has given us the green light, so to speak, for blending smart technology into our workday on the road while keeping us more focused and hopefully, safer. Here’s Jeff with a quick review and some really interesting detailing applications using Echo Auto. Tune in!
Echo Auto gives you full access to the Alexa Skills library. That’s right, it’s just you and Alexa on the road again each time you tap into the small device that mounts to your dash and connects via bluetooth to your smartphone app.
“Alexa, when’s my next appointment?” “Alexa, Directions.” “Alexa, take a note.” and for those of us with a little too much on our plates… “Alexa, Remember…”
Using just your voice, you and your team will be able to ask Alexa to…
- Start navigation on your phone with supported apps like Waze, Google Maps, and Apple Maps.
- Make calls, set reminders, add items to your to-do lists, or manage your calendar.
- Play audible audiobooks, listen to podcasts, or stream Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, SiriusXM, or radio stations from around the world with TuneIn and iHeartRadio.
- lets you check email, news, find the nearest gas station, and so much more.
- Also, automatically start a series of pre-set actions when you leave the office or get home using location-based routines.
We’re so excited about this new product that we’ll be sharing a demo video in the coming weeks, but meanwhile if you’re curious about uses and applications for you and your business, please give us a call. The Thingee team is here to make those connections.
