Web conferencing is a very useful tool for businesses. It provides an efficient, environmentally-friendly means of communicating with people anywhere in the world as well as cutting travel costs and increasing productivity. To ensure a successful conference call, there are certain behaviours and protocols that should be adhered to.
Try to choose a quiet, well-lit location away from others where there will be no background noise or other distractions. If you are at home, make sure you will not be interrupted by children or pets. Ideally, find a blank wall in a neutral colour as your backdrop. Try to avoid sitting in front of a wall of family portraits or your kids’ finger paintings, as this could be distracting.

Do not be the person responsible for holding up the meeting! This may include confirming your username and password are working beforehand and clearing your software and browser caches to ensure the application runs smoothly. Make sure you are familiar with the equipment and technology you will be using prior to the call.
