Serial Entrepreneur Embraces ClearOne Aura System for Simple, Professional-Grade Videoconferencing
April 27 2021 - 9:10AM
Running several media and talent management companies is not an
easy task under normal circumstances, but succeeding during an
abnormal Covid quarantine requires a willingness to adapt, and
adapt quickly, according to CelebExperts CEO Evan Morgenstein.
As a talent representative and booker
whose job requires making great first impressions and providing
responsive, reliable service to clients, Morgenstein has been able
to rise above the challenges presented by Covid with the help of
the ClearOne Aura Versa 50 videoconferencing system that offers 4K
video clarity and superior audio capture and playback.
“I have nearly constant interaction on
a daily basis, and being in an ultra-competitive industry, it’s
critical that I remain totally professional and ready to tackle new
challenges and opportunities as they affect my clients,”
Morgenstein explained. “Throughout 2020 it became apparent that my
laptop’s webcam and microphone were no longer good enough, and that
a professional-grade video conferencing solution from ClearOne
would ensure that my meetings go smoothly, conversations are
understood the first time, and that technology would never stand in
the way of making a deal or signing a client.”
Citing the need to keep up with the
times and ensure his brand remains relevant and on the
cutting-edge, Morgenstein views his upgraded equipment as akin to
his early adoption of the iPhone. Over the last year, he and his
colleagues recognized they had to extend their businesses into the
new virtual workplace in order to continue growing and not fall
behind.
“In an environment where I’m competing
with people half my age to represent influencers and celebrities,
staying up-to-date on new technologies is quite literally a
requirement of the job,” he said. “I have to show potential clients
and business partners that I’m ready and able to use every
available tool to help them be successful, and having a reliable,
easy-to-use virtual collaboration system that blows away most
people’s expectations of quality conveys an air of absolute control
of the situation.”
The ClearOne Aura Versa 50 system is a
massive upgrade from the integrated cameras and microphones found
in laptops. The screen-mountable UNITE 50 4K ePTZ camera includes
pan, tilt and 4x zoom functions controlled by a remote, while the
CHAT 150 USB speakerphone provides crystal-clear HDConference®
audio quality with physical buttons for volume and mute functions.
Best of all, the entire system is exceedingly simple to set up and
use with any computer and supports all virtual collaboration and
video conferencing platforms.
“I had fear of integrating a box of
new equipment I wasn’t familiar with, but I soon found that
ClearOne is a premier company with people who care and provide
assistance well above and beyond what I expected,” he added. “With
the Versa 50’s plug-and-play simplicity, I was up and running in
literally one minute, and the difference was immediately clear to
everyone I conferenced with. To be blunt, this is how a CEO of a
multi-million dollar organization needs to present themself.”
In addition to the 4K video quality
upgrade, Morgenstein said the improved audio clarity on both sides
of the conversation helps keep meetings on schedule, aids in
understanding non-native English speakers and limits the need for
people to repeat themselves. Essentially, the goal is to achieve
the responsiveness and feel of an in-person meeting.
“This new gear gives me confidence
that I’m presenting exactly how I intend, and that clients who grew
up surrounded by cutting-edge tech respect my ability to stay ahead
of the curve,” he said. “I really have to be at my best at all
times because guaranteeing clear communication with clients
directly reflects on my capabilities as a promoter and talent
representative. The message it sends is that we get it done, no
matter what.”
Both the UNITE 50 4K ePTZ camera and
CHAT 150 speakerphone are small enough to toss in a laptop bag,
making them an ideal long-term solution that provides excellent
value regardless of changing work environments. Morgenstein expects
his work to resume some normalcy in the near future, which
generally includes weekly travel that takes him away from the
office while still requiring constant contact with any number of
clients.
In addition to serving as CEO of
CelebExperts, Morgenstein also runs the influencer marketing agency
Digital Renegades and talent popularity rating service
CelebrityTrending10.
