Scotts Valley, CA - The Sunnyvale-based network security company, Fortinet, now has a new way to explain what they do and how well they do it. The sales team is now armed with a flash-based customer presentation that discusses the company’s unique value proposition thanks to the Tam Communications creative team. Executive Producer/Creative Director, Susan O’Connor Fraser, wrote the script and managed the project for Tam.

Working with Graphic Designer Mike Baxter, O’Connor Fraser created a look for the CD that built off the Fortinet corporate identity with an eye towards ease-of-use and flexibility. While Baxter developed art for animated charts, artist Aaron Dingman created network icons to be used to illustrate how Fortinet’s technology works.

The presentation can be used in one-on-one presentations, in trade show settings, or be given to interested customers. It can be self-running (i.e., advance on its own) or be ‘clicked through’ by the user. The audio can be turned on or off so that the Fortinet sales rep can use the presentation for visual support as he or she provides the narrative.

In addition to the 12-minute presentation, which can be customized on the fly to the specific audience, the CD also contains white papers, application briefs, and customer success stories. In essence, everything that the sales rep may need is available at the click of a mouse. Flash Programmer, Tracy Evleshin, created the various animations laying out Fortinet’s technology and integrated all the assets.
