Services for Crewers and Crewing Companies

Finding a web and e-mail hosting company that is responsive is hard enough, let alone one that understands your business. RemoteSports.com was created by a television freelancer who knows both the TV business as well as the Internet hosting business. I have spent over 10 years as both a staff and freelance engineer, tech manager, audio & video operator. I also spent 3 years running an Internet access company. I have taken those skills and combined them to form a business devoted to the remote television industry.

 

As e-mail has taken a greater hold in all of our lives, I have seen some crewing companies take advantage of this easy way to communicate, but there are right and wrong ways to do it and many more services that you can take advantage of. When you send out an e-mail to more than a handful of recipients at once, that e-mail typically ends up in most users SPAM boxes (it happens to me as well when I get these mass mailings from crewers). Why? Because most SPAM filters see all those to: and cc: names in the message header and assume this must be SPAM (and in most cases they are right). How can you fix that? Use a subscriber based mailing list. This allows you to either manually add your freelancers to the mailing list or allow them to subscribe and unsubscribe from the list themselves. You then send one message to one address and all the subscribers on the list will get a copy of it immediately. This not only prevents SPAM filters from seeing all the to: headers but also keeps your subscribers names and e-mail messages private. The only address anyone sees is yours and the mailing list address. Your freelancers will appreciate the privacy offered by this - trust me!

 

Tired of not being able to open some file attachments like freelancer invoices? This happens because so many e-mail providers (like AOL) block many file attachments for fear of viruses. We employ a powerful virus scanner that checks all inbound and outbound mail from and to your account for viruses. We don't block any type of file attachment. Know that your mail will get through to you correctly every time.

 

Having your own domain name is a great way for crew to remember your e-mail address. Let us host your domain, or help you get one if you don't have one already, and provide you with unlimited e-mail address as well as personal mailing lists under your domain.

 

I wont pretend to know all of your needs - only you know your business well. If you think of a feature or service not listed that would help you and your business, let me know and we'll implement that for you.
