[SPEAKER 1] · Section A
((VO)) Here at Google, there are tons of services at your fingertips. Our campuses offer great food, interesting workspaces, and opportunities to collaborate with some of the best and brightest. But the resources don't stop there.BROLL: general campus shots, people walking, interacting, working
Every Googler can access IT help through a service called go-slash-techstop.MEDIUM SHOT. Lower-third reveal with name and role
And our goal is simple:SIDE CLOSE
To keep your technology working for you, so you can stay productive.CENTER CLOSE
Today, we offer a suite of services to ensure you have the support you need, when and where you need it.MEDIUM SHOT
Whatever IT problem you may be up against, go-slash-techstop is here to help.ANIMATION (idea: logos turn into a tool the Googler character uses to fight off an IT-problem monster)
[SPEAKER 2] · Section BTRANSITION (idea: book page turn)
We care about you, the Googler.CLOSE UP
And we want to make sure you have what you need to get through your day.MEDIUM SHOT. Lower-third reveal
Really, I mean it!SIDE CLOSE
And to help you, we offer several different support channels.MEDIUM SHOT, transitioning into animation (home page, chat, phone, and ticket system)
You can enter your issue in the search bar on either the [intranet homepage] or go-slash-techstop.ANIMATION
From there, you can browse through our Techstop help articles. And that's where you'll find tons of solutions.
We offer chat support 24 hours a day, Monday through Friday.ANIMATION
You can also contact our techs by phone. They'll take your call any time, any day.ANIMATION
And if something breaks, and you don't have time to chat or call, you always can file a ticket.ANIMATION
The best thing about all of these services is that they're staffed by real people who care about making your day better.ANIMATION
[SPEAKER 3] · Section CTRANSITION
There are some IT issues that deserve immediate attention.MEDIUM SHOT
We don't want you to stress yourself out over a USB cord or a surge protector.ANIMATION
So, to help you in your time of need, we've set up self-service stations across many of our Google offices.ANIMATION
These stations give you easy access to the hardware you may need and don't require the assistance of a tech.OPTIONAL LINE
If you're having issues with your laptop or you accidentally left it at home, you can find our Grab and Go loaner laptops located in many of the self-service areas.ANIMATION
You can grab one of these Chromebook loaners for temporary use until your regular laptop is back in commission.ANIMATION
Just sign in, install the certification and you're good to go.ANIMATION
This program is a success thanks to Googlers who return the laptops in a timely manner.ANIMATION
So please don't rely on a Grab and Go loaner as a personal or additional laptop. Don't check out multiple loaners. And don't use them for prearranged activities like events or travel.ANIMATION
When you're finished, you can return the laptop to the Grab and Go shelf where you first found it. And don't forget to plug it in.ANIMATION
You can also find accessory racks in our self-service stations stocked with cables, chargers and adapters. You know, the things you need to stay productive throughout your day.ANIMATION
Grab what you need, when you need it.ANIMATION

Here at Google, we take a cloud-first approach.MEDIUM SHOT
Most of the tools you'll use everyday are online.CLOSE UP
We use our external products, like Gmail, internally as well.ANIMATION
Our goal is to be a model enterprise for our customers, and we do that by using our own products.ANIMATION
That's why there's a good chance that there's a Chromebook in front of you right now.ANIMATION or BROLL of Chromebooks
And if there isn't, maybe there should be.ANIMATION
Chromebooks are the preferred platform. And we've found that [xx%] of job roles can be productive on ChromeOS.ANIMATION
In general, we receive less support requests for our Chromebooks.ANIMATION
That's because they're reliable, simple to use and when something does go wrong, we'll have it fixed for you in a flash.ANIMATION
[xx%] of Googlers who use our Pixelbooks say they're satisfied.ANIMATION
You can switch or refresh your laptop through our [internal hardware portal].ANIMATION
[SPEAKER 5] · Section ETRANSITION
The [internal hardware portal] is your online stop for Google electronics.MEDIUM SHOT. Lower-third

[SPEAKERS 6 + 7] · Section FTRANSITION
We also offer internal apps to help you find your way here at Google, like this one.MEDIUM SHOT, then close up with room on screen left or right
It's called [Campus App].ANIMATION
[Campus App] creates a unified location-based experience to help you quickly find what you're looking for.ANIMATION
The mobile app includes a map feature that helps Googlers find their way to their next meeting or maybe a nearby cafe.ANIMATION
It also has search built right in. You can find the people, places, or resources you need all in one place.ANIMATION
If you're walking around a Google office, and you see something that needs to be fixed, you can file a support ticket from within the app.
It even gives you access to the teams page to help you locate the contact details for any Googler.ANIMATION
It's amazing.CLOSE UP
You can find and download the app on your corporate Android device through Google Play, and for iOS devices through the internal app catalog.ANIMATION
