Robot Hoovee: Hello, Robot Hoovee here.
Alex Fees: Hoovee the Hoovers robot greets guests at the 2009 Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas.
Robot Hoovee: I am here to introduce Hoovers Mobile. The power of Hoovers is in the palm of your hand
Heidi Tucker: Hoovers is the most comprehensive source of business insight on people, companies and industries to help sales professionals and businesses makers make more productive use of their time and better decisions.
Alex Fees: Hoovers business intelligence gathering represents a paradigm shift for the professional seeking an advantage.
Heidi Tucker: It’s just business insight that helps you better understand the customers in the prospects that you’re working with.
Adam Hanin: I could go on to the Internet today and I could start trying to gather all the information that we have on a particular company. It might take me two or three hours to gather most of the data that I need and it still wouldn’t necessarily be accurate. With Hoovers you get accurate, vetted data all in one place and you can get that and get out.
Alex Fees: Hoovers chose the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show to debut their latest product Hoovers Mobile. It affords you that pervasive access to business intelligence gathering outside of the office. It allows to get plugged in without being plugged in.
Misha Rangel: Hoovers online has the information on over 28 million public and private companies worldwide. At CES we’re debuting a new Hoovers Mobile product where you could receive the same information via your mobile device.
Adam Hanin: Hoovers Mobile is essentially Hoovers online taken to your mobile device, taking it to the streets. So anytime, anywhere you are, you can access Hoovers information.
Alex Fees: The Hoovers free application is available on iPhone, Windows mobile and BlackBerry.
Adam Hanin: So you can do it while you’re on a taxi, you can do it while you’re in elevator, whatever. Whenever you have that small moment of time you can use Hoovers Mobile.
Alex Fees: Hoovers Vice President of the business development Heidi Tucker says this information not only has a business benefit but a social application as well.
Heidi Tucker: It’s the same thing if you are in a ball game and you happen to meet somebody through a friend and you think that might be an interesting business contact for you. You don’t have to jot down the name of that person and then go back online on Monday and look up who that person is. You can literally just get out of your seat, go look up that person’s information and then come back to your seat and be able to carry on a more intelligent conversation because now you have the benefit of information.
Misha Rangel: We also have information on the competitors to the company that you can do research, as well as top executives. Now if I clicked on one of these executives like Anne, the Chairman and CEO I can get biographical information on the contact and then save it either to a list of my favorites that I want to reference at a later date or I can email the information to myself for someone else.
Alex Fees: The business background provided by Hoovers allows you to be on top of your game even when you haven’t done your homework.
Heidi Tucker: Often time’s people will wing it. They don’t prepare as they should and if they haven’t, you could be going up the escalator to go into the building to meet with the company and still give yourself a competitive advantage by taking two seconds to pull up that information on your phone.
Alex Fees: Let Hoovers do all the research for you anytime, anywhere, anyone.
Robot Hovee: Greetings and welcome at SBTV at the Consumer Electronic Show right here. I will invite you to check with sbtv.com at Hoovers to make sure that you learn everything here is to learn about the Consumer Electronic Show. I am you r SBTV roving robot reporter.

Alex Fees: In Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronic Show 2009, I’m Alex Fees for sbtv.com.
