We have all been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, some much more than others, but those who are lucky enough to be able to work using a video conferencing system have a clear advantage over many others who could not.
Some of the ways a video conferencing system is helpful during the COVID crisis for business are:
Keeping In Touch
Communication is a vital part of any business and having a good video conferencing system means you can keep in contact with all your clients, customers and employees from the comfort of your own home or home office.
Many businesses are finding that allowing their staff to operate from home has many advantages that they will continue to enjoy after the crisis is over and life resumes to the New Normal which most people are now expecting
Cost Saving
· Reduced travel for employees means businesses are enjoying savings in such areas as lower transportation costs. Company cars are not using fuel or suffering wear and tear
· Reduced office space is now required at the main place of business allowing for new business expansion within the same area
· Office downsizing can represent a large saving as office leasing or rentals are often on a per square meter basis
Time Saving
Without the need to travel management and employees can spend their time in productive endeavors rather than commuting and being forced to endure traffic delays and congestion.
Face to Face
There is no doubt that in many businesses there is a clear advantage to being able to talk face to face with colleagues, partners, employees, clients and potential customer. People feel more inclined to trust someone when they can see who they are dealing with.
A video conferencing system allows people to enjoy face to face communication instantly from anywhere at any time, allowing for better understandings and instant decisions that could be difficult to make using email, texting or even normal telephones.
Video conferencing systems help during the COVID crisis because it allows those who are under quarantine and therefore unable to operate their businesses in a normal fashion, to still maintain control and enjoy total communication throughout their networks
Increasing Business
Far from having a negative impact on the world as a whole the COVID crisis has had a positive impact in many areas such as reducing pollution and wastage allowing many areas to self heal.
With many people being forced to stay home, suddenly they have a lot of extra time with which to spend on the internet.
Video conferencing systems have allowed smart internet marketers to utilize the fact that there are many more people with time to search for things of interest and new opportunities.
Video conferencing systems have allowed businesses to extend their reach and influence and at the same time given potential customers the ability to find out more about services and products they are interested in.
The COVID crisis has opened new possibilities for business and personal development because of the advantages the internet and video conferencing systems have given people. Allowing people to work from home and operate their businesses with lower overhead cost and reduced wasted time has made video conferencing systems very helpful.
