When you call for tech support, don't add to that statistic. Instead, call Transparen for remote tech support, provided faster than on-site.

21,930,000 barrels is a lot of oil. To imagine that amount is consumed every single day is staggering. But knowledge workers can help solve this problem by finding ways to reduce waste. A great place to start is with tech support. We're not saying eliminate it - just use it wisely, and judiciously. And just as people can lose weight by staying away from high-carb foods, companies can save the environment by cutting back on the kind of on-site tech support that involves the operation of a motor vehicle.

And raise your hand if you like to pay for mandatory automobile insurance. That cost is so high it could be a major cost of doing business, and what does society receive for it? Precious little. Let us avoid paying for gas, foreign oil, and eggregious insurance prices, and we pass the savings back to you.

Clients of our environmentally friendly tech support service say they find it valuable because they get great quality service and know that they're not causing us to emit poisonous fumes into the air they breath, and that they're saving money because we're not forced to invest in automobiles and especially expensive automobile insurance.

Speaking of insurance, it is designed to pay for crashes - and when automobiles crash, they are often disposed of quickly. This is another societal cost that Transparen's tech support clients can avoid, and should avoid at all costs.

But Transparen's service is not costly, because it provides unlimited support for only $30 per computer / month (or $45 per computer / month for proactive support where we check up on the computer twice a week).

21,930,000 barrels is a lot of oil. Use Transparen's tech support service for your knowledge work job and save the environment more quickly by finding better ways to reduce waste. Find comfort in knowing that calling for tech support will not produce additional transportation-related waste.
