What specifically, though?

@scottalanmiller a good way to talk about VoIP in a general sense is to discuss where the savings come from for the members to take back to their company decision makers.
Yeah, the tech is cool and the advantages are awesome with flexibility, options, etc. but that all means nothing without the ROI.

@scottalanmiller Factors into the cost of downtime. What does it cost your company when a system goes down?

That could work... how to calculate the cost of downtime.

How about a talk discussing tips for professional development and career goal setting? Though you may be happy in what you do / where you work, it is important to continue to move forward with investing in yourself. Sometimes people are so overwhelmed with the amount of work they are asked to do they are not able to take a step back, look at the big picture, and see if their employer or their current role is still helping move toward career development and goals. Hopefully that makes sense.

Just promise me if you discuss calculating costs of downtime and how it plays into what you should spend to mitigate it that you'll work in a good analogy something lines of "that's like shooting yourself in the face today to avoid a headache some day."That's my favorite SAM analogy.
