We’re one of the biggest manufacturers of drink coasters in the United States, with over 100 employees across our two facilities in Buffalo, New York and Johnson City, Tennessee. <br /><br />We weren't always such a large company - we grew quickly through a handful of mergers over the last few years - and when we finally had a chance to come up for air, we realized our technology hadn’t kept up with us. We were stumbling along with a fractured email and collaboration platform built around Microsoft Exchange 2003 and a few file-sharing servers. It was expensive and unreliable, especially for a company without a dedicated IT department. Upgrading our hosted system didn’t make financial sense, and Microsoft Office 365 didn’t win our team over. Google Apps did both, and its stability and security features were especially attractive. We decided to make the switch to Google Apps in September of 2011, and with help from <a href="http://www.ditoweb.com/">Dito</a>, our Google Apps Reseller, we were up and running by January of 2012. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Google Apps has helped us streamline and modernize our day-to-day work. By using Google Drive, we’ve cut the average time it takes to deliver an estimate and mocks to a customer from one week to just three days. Instead of sending different versions of huge files around by email, we create a single shared folder on Drive and house each proof there. That way, we can easily share, edit and collaborate on our work as a team in less than half the time it took before. <br /><br />The Gmail and Google Drive mobile apps have changed how we interact with potential customers and sell our product when we’re on the road. Now, I can pull up a design on my phone while I’m speaking to a customer at an industry event or even create a rough prototype on the spot. I can also add their information to my contacts, get a quote started for them immediately, and follow up via email within minutes of finishing our conversation. Google Apps lets us give our customers on-the-spot, personal service, and that gives us a huge advantage over the competition. <br /><br />Google Apps has been the keystone of our revamped company strategy at a time of significant change.

We’re one of the biggest manufacturers of drink coasters in the United States, with over 100 employees across our two facilities in Buffalo, New York and Johnson City, Tennessee. <br /><br />We weren't always such a large company - we grew quickly through a handful of mergers over the last few years - and when we finally had a chance to come up for air, we realized our technology hadn’t kept up with us. We were stumbling along with a fractured email and collaboration platform built around Microsoft Exchange 2003 and a few file-sharing servers. It was expensive and unreliable, especially for a company without a dedicated IT department. Upgrading our hosted system didn’t make financial sense, and Microsoft Office 365 didn’t win our team over. Google Apps did both, and its stability and security features were especially attractive. We decided to make the switch to Google Apps in September of 2011, and with help from <a href="http://www.ditoweb.com/">Dito</a>, our Google Apps Reseller, we were up and running by January of 2012. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Google Apps has helped us streamline and modernize our day-to-day work. By using Google Drive, we’ve cut the average time it takes to deliver an estimate and mocks to a customer from one week to just three days. Instead of sending different versions of huge files around by email, we create a single shared folder on Drive and house each proof there. That way, we can easily share, edit and collaborate on our work as a team in less than half the time it took before. <br /><br />The Gmail and Google Drive mobile apps have changed how we interact with potential customers and sell our product when we’re on the road. Now, I can pull up a design on my phone while I’m speaking to a customer at an industry event or even create a rough prototype on the spot. I can also add their information to my contacts, get a quote started for them immediately, and follow up via email within minutes of finishing our conversation. Google Apps lets us give our customers on-the-spot, personal service, and that gives us a huge advantage over the competition. <br /><br />Google Apps has been the keystone of our revamped company strategy at a time of significant change. The way I see it, it’s also just the beginning: our employees are constantly finding new features and sharing their favorite use cases, so I can only imagine the benefits we’ll see a year from now.

Mollen is also the largest independent mass-immunizer in the country and last year we conducted over 100,000 healthcare events across all fifty states. <br /><br />The healthcare services we provide typically require a lot of physical documents: in 2011, we used 20 million pieces of paper for everything from patient records to insurance verification to credit card processing.

And by reducing our reliance on paper, we’re happy that we’re helping reduce our environmental impact, as well. </div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Mollen Eliminates 16 Million Pieces of Paper with Chromebooks&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='3' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/mollen-eliminates-16-million-pieces-of.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/customer%20love' rel='tag'> customer love </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Gone%20Google' rel='tag'> Gone Google </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='2428868299775904039' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/04/celebrating-earth-day-with-google-earth.html' itemprop='url' title='Celebrating Earth Day with Google Earth Pro 7.1: better ways to edit maps and measure site views '> Celebrating Earth Day with Google Earth Pro 7.1: better ways to edit maps and measure site views </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, April 22, 2013 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Peter Birch, Product Manager, Google Maps for Business</span><br /><br />With <a href="//www.google.com/earth/index.html">Google Earth</a>, you can see just about any location in the world (or even locations outside our world, like <a href="//www.google.com/sky/">galaxies</a> in outer space).

Today, we’re announcing two new <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/?utm_source=0413entblog&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">Chrome for Business</a> features that make it easier to use Chrome at work. <br /><br />First, we’re launching <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/lbs.html?utm_source=0413entblog&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">Legacy Browser Support</a> for companies that want to use Chrome but rely on custom web applications built for older browsers. When companies use browsers that are two or more versions old, employees and developers are unable to benefit from the incredible web innovations of the past four, or even ten years. Deploying a modern browser can help IT bolster security, reduce support costs, and improve browser speed and usability for employees. <br /><br />With Legacy Browser Support, employees on Chrome are automatically switched to a legacy browser when they begin using an older app. IT managers simply define which sites should launch from Chrome into an alternate browser, and then set this Chrome policy for all employees. And while Chrome Frame helps developers build apps for older browsers, Legacy Browser Support lets IT admins of organizations embrace the modern web. <br /><br />More than ever, employees are requesting to use their personal computers or devices for work. We’re also introducing <a href="http://support.google.com/chrome/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2657289" target="_blank">cloud-based management</a> of Chrome for <a href="https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/" target="_blank">Google Apps for Business</a> and <a href="https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/education/" target="_blank">Education</a> customers. Now, whether employees are working from the company’s desktop or their personal laptop, they will be able to access default applications, custom themes, or a curated app web store when they sign-in to Chrome with their work account. With cloud-based management, IT administrators can customize more than 100 Chrome policies and preferences for their employees from the Google Admin panel.

As Chrome continues to push the boundary of what’s possible on the modern web, these innovations should be available for everyone, everywhere -- especially at work. Learn more about <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/?utm_source=0413entblog&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">Chrome for Business</a>.</div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Cyrus Mistry, Senior Product Manager, Chrome for Business & Education</span><br /><br />Just like in our personal lives, work increasingly means accessing useful information, staying connected with people, and using web apps -- all of which are powered by the browser. Today, we’re announcing two new <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/?utm_source=0413entblog&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">Chrome for Business</a> features that make it easier to use Chrome at work. <br /><br />First, we’re launching <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/lbs.html?utm_source=0413entblog&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">Legacy Browser Support</a> for companies that want to use Chrome but rely on custom web applications built for older browsers. When companies use browsers that are two or more versions old, employees and developers are unable to benefit from the incredible web innovations of the past four, or even ten years. Deploying a modern browser can help IT bolster security, reduce support costs, and improve browser speed and usability for employees. <br /><br />With Legacy Browser Support, employees on Chrome are automatically switched to a legacy browser when they begin using an older app. IT managers simply define which sites should launch from Chrome into an alternate browser, and then set this Chrome policy for all employees. And while Chrome Frame helps developers build apps for older browsers, Legacy Browser Support lets IT admins of organizations embrace the modern web. <br /><br />More than ever, employees are requesting to use their personal computers or devices for work. We’re also introducing <a href="http://support.google.com/chrome/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2657289" target="_blank">cloud-based management</a> of Chrome for <a href="https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/" target="_blank">Google Apps for Business</a> and <a href="https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/education/" target="_blank">Education</a> customers. Now, whether employees are working from the company’s desktop or their personal laptop, they will be able to access default applications, custom themes, or a curated app web store when they sign-in to Chrome with their work account. With cloud-based management, IT administrators can customize more than 100 Chrome policies and preferences for their employees from the Google Admin panel. Non-Google Apps customers who are interested can <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/browser/admin/signup.html" target="_blank">sign up here</a>. <br /><br />The web and <a href="http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/Projects/mosaic.html" target="_blank">browser</a> have come a long way in the last 20 years.

It is no wonder that prospective buyers approach the task of finding their perfect place with such fervour. Today’s house-shoppers seek detailed, current and useful information on prospective properties and neighbourhoods. They are sophisticated users of search technology, but have traditionally been frustrated by the tools available to them. It is with this as a challenge in mind that we tackled a major redesign and rebuild of our popular real estate website, <a href="http://www.royallepage.ca/" target="_blank">www.royallepage.ca</a>, using Google technology. <br /><br />The website integrates a new service from the Canadian Real Estate Association called Data Distribution Facility or DDF. Utilizing DDF, which our firm played a significant role in bringing to market, we will more than double the number of home-sale listings on <a href="http://www.royallepage.ca/" target="_blank">www.royallepage.ca</a>. For the first time, our website will showcase home listings from multiple property brokerage companies, not just Royal LePage, providing consumers with their one-stop real estate resource. <br /><br />A good part of the magic behind the new <a href="http://www.royallepage.ca/" target="_blank">www.royallepage.ca</a> is hidden in the site’s architecture. While many real estate websites use Google Maps and Google Places, Royal LePage went a step further by constructing the website with Google Cloud Platform using Google App Engine and Google Cloud Storage. Real estate websites tend to store a large number of property records and photos, and require a large amount of location-based processing to render consumer search results. Utilizing Google Cloud Platform allows us to deliver that critical consumer information quickly and accurately. It will also allow us to scale our performance and our costs effectively as our real estate data and consumer base grows. <br /><br />Uniquely, the site also employs cutting edge search technology from Google Cloud Platform, which enables consumers to go beyond traditional search to hunt for homes near local landmarks. For example, consumers can search for homes near the CN Tower, near Stanley Park or near Olympic Stadium. This innovative technology brings industry-leading search to the real estate consumer. <br /><br />Relying heavily on a number of Google technologies, we were able to create an online experience unlike anything previously seen in Canadian real estate. The revamped website utilizes Google Maps and Street View for map-based search with visual assist. Many properties will display a Walkscore® ranking, which helps families understand what can be easily accomplished on foot in the area they are investigating. Additionally, tailored information is available for property listings, including Wikipedia neighbourhood photos and information, agent-produced video and descriptions, an overview of local amenities via Google Places and a list of other properties for sale in the area. <br /><br />We are thrilled to unveil the new <a href="http://www.royallepage.ca/" target="_blank">www.royallepage.ca</a> in this, Royal LePage’s centennial year. Our website, powered by Google tools, will enable Canadians to explore their real estate dreams as never before. It will provide quick and efficient delivery of more listings, fresh neighbourhood insights, and extensive property details. It’s all there. Happy home searching! </div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Phil Soper, Royal LePage Real Estate Services</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Today’s guest blogger is Phil Soper, President & CEO, Royal LePage.</i><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYzow7dYGTX3RiglAaUkdMJG6RJqWzb4FNsPD_ZDMkQMyTvQ5qAeOG7Q-MmjqMUGRyR9y4XgiV4Ca4WqLlMqR-sWeTuRSBg3cnW3w354mVgPiZJGwqqsU3hoMW6qvD8sf5xY5uDP3VsA/s1600/Phil_Soper_2012.jpg.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYzow7dYGTX3RiglAaUkdMJG6RJqWzb4FNsPD_ZDMkQMyTvQ5qAeOG7Q-MmjqMUGRyR9y4XgiV4Ca4WqLlMqR-sWeTuRSBg3cnW3w354mVgPiZJGwqqsU3hoMW6qvD8sf5xY5uDP3VsA/s200/Phil_Soper_2012.jpg.jpeg" width="148" /></a>Buying a home is typically the largest purchase a family will make in their lifetime.

Our t-shirts are specially made in small batches to help express and reflect our customer’s unique styles. This independent ethos helped propel our brand from a cult favorite in our hometown of Boston into a multi-million dollar, international business with stores in London, Los Angeles and, of course, across Massachusetts. <br /><br />We’ve grown a lot since Johnny Earle started Johnny Cupcakes in 2001, but we’ve always put a premium on staying fresh – both with our designs and the technology we work with. When I joined the company two years ago, I realized our email system was causing more harm than good, especially at the rate we were growing. I knew we needed an upgrade, I knew it didn't make sense to install a server that required constant maintenance, and I knew most employees were already using Gmail on their own. Moving to Google Apps seemed both attractive and obvious. <br /><br />Google Apps for Business makes communication a snap. We’ve grown to 50 employees, but still work at the same breakneck speed we did when it was just Johnny hustling to get the company off the ground. That’s why it’s essential to have the tools to keep up with our pace. Google Chat makes that possible. We love that we can send a quick ping to someone with a question, an idea in need of feedback or a project update without having to leave our desks. <br /><br />Google Apps saves us a lot of time and prevents a lot of headaches. Take our recent website redesign, for example. Our customers are our biggest fans, so we wanted to show them some love by highlighting a handful of them on our new site. At first, the thought of coordinating, collecting and curating that amount of content seemed daunting. I was worried we’d have to use a 3rd party questionnaire app or do everything over email and pull it all together manually (and painstakingly). Then I realized I could do it all through Google Forms. I set up a questionnaire, sent it to our customers, and saw the responses show up in real-time in a single spreadsheet. It saved me hours of work I would’ve wasted emailing, copying and pasting. <br /><br />Johnny Cupcakes is all about our customers – we love them and they love us. This connection fuels our drive to make clothes that are both exclusive and accessible. Google Apps allows us to communicate more effectively, which helps free up our time so that we can concentrate on the things that really matter: our customers. </div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Justin Hiltz, Media Futurist at Johnny Cupcakes</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> From the founding of Faneuil Hall in 1740 to the opening of Franklin Southie in 2008, Boston’s businesses have embodied an enterprising and entrepreneurial spirit.

Employees have to learn a new interface and get used to a different way of doing everyday things. But that change is often tougher for CIOs and IT managers since we also have to manage migrating data, handling questions and buying or upgrading hardware. So when we started switching the majority of the company’s infrastructure over to the cloud, I prepared for an uphill battle.<br /><br />We had been using Microsoft Exchange for more than 14 years and it was starting to outlive its usefulness. Tools that we relied on in Exchange 2007 didn’t work when we upgraded to the 2010 version, calendaring was messy and mobile syncing was even tougher. Our Sharepoint server – the center of collaboration for the company – was just not working. <br /><br />Our search for a cloud-based email and collaboration system came down to Microsoft Office 365 and Google Apps. While our 1,200 employees were used to Microsoft's tools, we weren't convinced their solution fully understood the cloud; Office 365 still required us to install software and hardware. Google Apps was entirely cloud-based and offered everything we needed with a single license - it was the right way to go for us. We switched last summer with the help of Google Apps reseller <a href="www.cloudsherpas.com">Cloud Sherpas</a>. <br /><br />Our staff quickly adopted Gmail and Google Calendar and also tried out Google Docs, finding that it makes creating presentations and sharing information with each other and outside partners much easier. Our sales managers have started using Google+ Hangouts for preliminary interviews with remote job candidates in order to get a more personal first interview with them before bringing them into the office. We’re also in the process of finally getting rid of our Sharepoint server by migrating the information over to Google Sites and Google Drive. Our Quality Assurance team has about 100 people who all use Sites and Drive to store, organize and share every document they create. Now it’s become company policy: every document that’s created internally is made using a Google Doc! <br /><br />Google Apps has also helped us make mobility simple for our employees. Their email and calendars are always synced, there’s never any downtime or connectivity issues, like there were with Exchange, and they have all their Docs with them anytime they need them. Almost a year later, our support tickets have dropped over 60 percent and we’ve saved more than $300,000. <br /><br />In about one year of running Google Apps, 272 new features have been pushed out to our company. That’s an impressive pace and something that would have seemed impossible before, but I see it as the luxury of cloud computing. While change can seem daunting, we’re really happy to have Google Apps as our guide.</div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Dan Petlon, CIO of Enterasys</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> From the founding of Faneuil Hall in 1740 to the opening of Franklin Southie in 2008, Boston’s businesses have embodied an enterprising and entrepreneurial spirit.

Beyond our TV channel and online presence, we sell weather data to business and foreign governments, as well as sell graphic capabilities to local network affiliates. We’re a big, complex organization with a lot of smart people who need the right tools to do their work. It’s my job to make sure those needs are being met.<br /><br />When I joined the company last summer, one of my first responsibilities was to get all our employees on the same email and collaboration platform. The Weather Company has grown quite a bit through acquisitions during the past year, leaving our 1,200 employees all over the world using a mixed bag of tools. Each business was still working as an independent entity, so getting everyone under the same technological umbrella was crucial to us moving forward. <br /><br />The choice came down to Google Apps and Microsoft® Office 365. We knew there were strong allegiances to each platform within the company, so there was no clear winner at first. After taking a closer look at Office 365, though, it seemed like a set of individual tools rather than a fully integrated suite like Google Apps. On top of that, Google Apps’ single user licensing was far less complicated than Microsoft’s model. Ultimately, Google Apps was a better fit for our company. <br /><br />About two months ago we rolled out Google Apps with the help of Google Enterprise partner, <a href="http://www.cloudsherpas.com/">Cloud Sherpas</a>. Though change management was definitely a large undertaking, we do feel that the switch brought the company together. It helped us untether people from the traditional corporate collaboration approach of searching through multiple versions and waiting as documents were passed from one to another - something I desperately wanted to do. The culture of our company and the IT department is changing, and Google Apps was a great catalyst to get that moving in the right direction. <br /><br />We’ve only been live for a short time, but Google Apps has already changed how we work. Google Docs have caught on like wildfire, and people can work from anywhere as long as they have Internet. I see people bouncing around between their laptop, a tablet, their Android phone or whatever – it’s seamless. We’ve also started using Google Drive to replace personal Box and Dropbox accounts that people had been using to share documents, so we’ll have centralized control of our intellectual property. We’re going to roll out Google+ companywide to replace Yammer, although Google+ Hangouts have begun to spread organically. Our marketing, sales and PR teams all use Hangouts to meet, and one employee set up a Google Chromebox and a monitor to create a Hangout station in his office. <br /><br />Google Apps has created a real sense of excitement at The Weather Company. People are really exploring and embracing it, and that’s exactly what I wanted to see. As we’re abandoning the traditional top-down IT department mindset, all I can do is provide a toolkit for people to work with. Google Apps gives them those tools and lets them work. </div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Bryson Koehler, CIO of The Weather Company</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note: </b>Our guest blogger is Bryson Koehler, CIO of <a href="http://www.weather.com/wx/b">The Weather Company</a>, the parent company of The Weather Channel, weather.com and Weather Underground, the most popular sources of weather news and information on television and online.

What makes it “super” is that searches may now include all recognized text on the documents, including witness and notary names.

Our business division, Second City Communications, brings the same audience-empowered approach to the boardroom, creating content marketing, entertainment and training programs for some of America’s best-known companies. You can see some of <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2013/03/google-apps-now-helping-you-enjoy-work.html">our handiwork</a> on this blog. <p>Second City Communications has been using Google Apps for over a year. Apps provides the interactive collaboration with our clients that’s necessary to co-create compelling, engaging videos that enhance companies’ training communications. We begin by using Google Docs to get multiple companies brainstorming ideas around hot corporate topics such as ethics and compliance, as well as sales effectiveness. From there, we bring our special brand of humor into the mix. We then share scripts in Google Drive to get real-time feedback from clients, helping us make sure the videos resonate with employees and reflect real challenges in the workplace. <p>Because you can’t really get the full effect of a script without hearing it, we meet with clients over Google+ Hangouts. Our actors do fun “table read” sessions so clients can listen and react while we observe it all. Our clients make sure we talk the talk of their audiences and bring a whole new level of authenticity to the creative development process. We continue to create these videos, called RealBiz Shorts, with more than 250 Fortune 1000 clients, who use them to change behavior and transform company culture through smart comedy. <p>When you look at these training videos, you see something that’s not only humorous, but also anchored in reality. RealBiz Shorts get employees more engaged with existing programs. It’s like marketing for training! <a href="http://realbizshorts.com/demo/technology/">See for yourself</a>. <p>It’s 2013, folks. New approaches for a new time. Google Apps plays a key part of our creative development process to build big ideas with our clients. It gives us vital tools to bring improv agility and nimbleness to enterprise collaboration, and helps us bridge the gap between comedy and the corporate world. <p>Funny thing is, it’s working. Beautifully. </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Steve Johnston, Second City Communications</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Our guest blogger is Steve Johnston, president of <a href="http://secondcitycommunications.com/">Second City Communications</a>, the business solutions division of the legendary improv theater company, The Second City, and our partner in <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2013/03/google-apps-now-helping-you-enjoy-work.html">yesterday’s April Fools’ joke</a>.

We believe in providing a great experience for our audience and are hardwired to innovate and attack convention whenever possible. <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaRYEteE8AAX-OVeGV884cZTl_wvLtVvhyAZLVM5CKjtAFYMkEvcAHui9AXCp_SXfbNJLLQkBr_z0M_s16mXDGC8beeYJY_KBvPqTEuCjfl2IQXKoRmVYq2LYIAhzcoq4BFkhVUkpvsdE/s1600/RealBiz_SCC_LogoOnWhite_062410.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaRYEteE8AAX-OVeGV884cZTl_wvLtVvhyAZLVM5CKjtAFYMkEvcAHui9AXCp_SXfbNJLLQkBr_z0M_s16mXDGC8beeYJY_KBvPqTEuCjfl2IQXKoRmVYq2LYIAhzcoq4BFkhVUkpvsdE/s320/RealBiz_SCC_LogoOnWhite_062410.png" /></a>The Second City has been called the “Harvard of Comedy,” and our alumni list includes stars such as Alan Arkin, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Mike Myers, Steve Carell and Tina Fey. Our business division, Second City Communications, brings the same audience-empowered approach to the boardroom, creating content marketing, entertainment and training programs for some of America’s best-known companies. You can see some of <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2013/03/google-apps-now-helping-you-enjoy-work.html">our handiwork</a> on this blog. <p>Second City Communications has been using Google Apps for over a year. Apps provides the interactive collaboration with our clients that’s necessary to co-create compelling, engaging videos that enhance companies’ training communications. We begin by using Google Docs to get multiple companies brainstorming ideas around hot corporate topics such as ethics and compliance, as well as sales effectiveness. From there, we bring our special brand of humor into the mix. We then share scripts in Google Drive to get real-time feedback from clients, helping us make sure the videos resonate with employees and reflect real challenges in the workplace. <p>Because you can’t really get the full effect of a script without hearing it, we meet with clients over Google+ Hangouts. Our actors do fun “table read” sessions so clients can listen and react while we observe it all. Our clients make sure we talk the talk of their audiences and bring a whole new level of authenticity to the creative development process. We continue to create these videos, called RealBiz Shorts, with more than 250 Fortune 1000 clients, who use them to change behavior and transform company culture through smart comedy. <p>When you look at these training videos, you see something that’s not only humorous, but also anchored in reality. RealBiz Shorts get employees more engaged with existing programs. It’s like marketing for training! <a href="http://realbizshorts.com/demo/technology/">See for yourself</a>. <p>It’s 2013, folks. New approaches for a new time. Google Apps plays a key part of our creative development process to build big ideas with our clients. It gives us vital tools to bring improv agility and nimbleness to enterprise collaboration, and helps us bridge the gap between comedy and the corporate world. <p>Funny thing is, it’s working. Beautifully. </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper'
