If you haven’t already implemented video conferencing as a tool in your business, then now is the time. Video is becoming a more effective and efficient way of communicating with clients and staff, due it its convenience. In fact, many employees are finding video/web conferencing a favourable tool to use, in addition to instant messaging. So, what are the benefits of utilising video conferencing?

Increased Attendance

Due to video conferencing being portable on mobile phones and easy to access no matter where you are, it means that attendance is increased. So, whether an employee is out of the office or even abroad and they are needed in a video conference, they can easily join a phone call. For example, if you have offices overseas, employees in those offices can also be a part of the conference call.

Improved Communication

As previously mentioned, due to the easy accessibility of video conferencing, communication between clients, as well as employees who are not in the same office, is improved. Additionally, as it’s a video, you can see the faces of the other people you are talking to. Therefore, not only can ideas be interpreted correctly, but you are also less likely to speak over someone else, as you can see when they are going to talk. Expressions can be read better through the screen, as opposed to just over emails.

No Need To Travel

As you can communicate to people no matter where they are in the world, there is no need for clients or employees to travel. This cost-effective solution means that you don’t have to travel to see your clients as regularly as you would before. All you need to do is to be connected to the internet, arrange a time that you can all do and then begin your meeting.

You Can Teach

Video conferencing means that you can teach your employees without having to all be in the same office together. So, whether you cannot be in the office, or you want to teach a couple of your employees something, you can do this wherever you want. Additionally, if you wanted to talk through how to access something with a client, you can do this through video conferencing.

In addition to teaching, you can also show your client things, such as design and be able to explain it in full, opposed to roughly over a number of emails. Therefore, if any changes need to be made, they can be completed quickly for the client. 

Increased Meetings

As travel expenses are no longer an obstacle, meetings can be organised more regularly. This is another way that communication between a business and the client can be improved. What’s more, it allows your business to speak to more clients around the world, which will ultimately help your business to grow globally.
