USE VIDEO CONFERENCING
INSTEAD OF FLYING
OR DRIVING
CUTTING DOWN YOUR AIR MILES WILL CUT BOTH COSTS AND CO2 EMISSIONS.
TALKING ON THE TELEPHONE IS STILL NOT A SATISFACTORY SUBSTITUTE FOR FACE-TO-FACE MEETINGS. VIDEO
CONFERENCING MIGHT NOT BE A PERFECT ONE EITHER, BUT IT’S THE NEXT BEST THING.
DEDICATED CORPORATE VIDEO CONFERENCING
EQUIPMENT CAN BE EXPENSIVE: $7,500 OR MORE
FOR THE AVERAGE BOARDROOM SYSTEM. STILL, IF
MEETINGS WITH OVERSEAS COLLEAGUES/ASSOCIATES
OR CUSTOMERS FORM AN IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR
BUSINESS ACTIVITIES, YOU WILL RECOUP THIS BY
THE TIME YOU HAVE SAVED ON THE COST OF A FEW
INTERCONTINENTAL FLIGHTS.
THE BUDGET OPTION INVOLVES BUYING A WEBCAM
($10 AND UP) – ASSUMING THAT YOU DON’T ALREADY
HAVE A BUILT-IN ONE – AND DOWNLOADING SKYPE.
PRICE TO SET UP AND RUN: FREE.
