Web Meeting Saves The Day

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

I was a Batman fan, and followed the Adam West starred Batman series. I vividly remember how Batman telephoned from his Bat Mobile to meet up with Commissioner Gordon. Whoa! Punch your fist in the air just like Robin does. Web Meeting saves the day.

Now that our society is super hi-tech like in Batman, you can contact anybody by web meeting any where you can connected to the internet. You can talk to any Commissioner you’d like to try and catch the Joker.

Web Meeting uses a computer, an internet service connection, and a headset to web meet online.  The best thing is that web meeting is affordable to us Batman wanna-bees, and you don’t have to keep on counting the minutes since you pay a flat monthly rate. Spend time really gathering those creative juices from friends and colleagues via the web.

You might be wondering how much money are we talking here. Fuze Meeting, for example, charges as low as $23.25 per month. They even have a Free Basic account for those who can’t use the service often enough to make it worth while. Only the web meeting host pays. Attendees are always free to join in on the meeting.

Compare your air fare with a web meeting online account from Fuze Meeting. If you need to meet up and show  somebody in Dallas or Chicago your latest product presentation, and you are somewhere in California. You’ll end up spending more out of your pocket using audio conferencing alone or traveling across the country to meet up face to face.

Web meeting online saves even more money, considering the time wasted clearing airports, hotel accommodations, and tiredness. You can easily talk to your friend around the world, from home or at the office, without any hassle at all. Try Fuze Meeting free for 30 days and save your day.

Web Meeting Etiquette – Your First Online Meeting

Friday, November 6th, 2009

You finally set up your first real web meeting. The set up part wasn’t hard, because today’s web meeting services are pretty easy to use. Getting your department staff to take the meeting seriously might be the biggest challenge.  Here are a few tips to help get your weekly web meeting past the productivity hurdle.

  • Hold a quick pre-meeting prior to your first web meeting. Let first time attendees login, post comments, and look around during a one hour trial run.
  • Remind web meeting attendees to stay on topic. Save the small talk for the water cooler or as a follow up phone call.
  • Keep a regular meeting schedule as you would your offline meetings. Monday morning sales meetings, for example, remind attendees that this technology is here to stay and is for their own benefit.
  • Dress and act as you would for a meeting at your office.

Web meetings from home or on the road should follow the same etiquette as a meeting at your place of business. Dress code, professionalism, and your presentation skill level should be the same. The goal is to save on travel costs and improve communication between yourself and your peers.
