How do you communicate online?

Email is now the default for online communication, but are you exploring other methods of communicating with your employees and partners on the job?

If you’re travelling both domestically and overseas, keeping up with matters back home is a must. Instead of using email to communicate, look into using video-conferencing tools such as Skype in order to create a more comprehensive and instant solution.

But alternative methods of communicating don’t have to be just for travel. While in the office, use instant messenger programs instead of using phones or shouting across a crowded room – it saves time and fits into your workflow easier.

As reported by ZDNet, iiNet found its call centre workers were far more relaxed while at home using VoIP to communicate online. Investigate ways to keep you connected to your office no matter where you are.
