Business Preparation

Using Google’s Talk and Voice to conduct business can be very useful, with the company upgrading and updating new innovative programs on a daily basis. As much success and praise the company has received in the past and presently, I’m sure they will come out with something that is worth everyone’s time. To conduct business deals in different locations and countries can be a very useful thing; this can eliminate the cost of traveling and the need for a secretary who would be there to take notes, because with the Talk service, this will be documented. The Voice service can be useful services for a company if they are temporarily out of the office and need to forward a call to a particular place to ensure that no calls go missed and all calls will be documented. I guess it’s all in how you handle the service, I’m sure it is great for personal use as well. I don’t think I will go far as closing a deal or anything. But as for communicating, it is great. I just thought about if you were in the business to purchase a piece of property on the beach, of course you would love to see it first, by using the Talk feature the Realtor and the client can set up an account and show property and hold face to face conversations for clarity. So instead of meeting up with one another several times within a week, some of that time can be cut down. I t really depends on the company and the product or service that’s trying to be promoted.

Communicating while Networking

Google Talk is an instant communications service. It uses innovative technology to help people communicate effectively and efficiently. This service offers different ways to integrate real time communications into online experience. For instance if you wanted to do a promotion about a product on Facebook, perhaps you could set up a link to answer questions face to face about the particular product, but the down side of the deal is, the person questioning the promotion would actually need to be a member of the communications service in order to communicate back and forth. This could also be a very useful tool on Facebook between two business persons trying to conduct business and they wanted to talk about a particular product face to face. Within Facebook you are able to upload pictures and receive comments. If you observe these comments from consumers you may come to an agreement that could become inexpensive. Using Google’s Talk service along with Facebook to conduct business interviews and conversations can be a very useful tool as long as everyone is using the same program.

Business Voice Management

Google voice is not a phone service but it lets you manage all of your phones. I guess if you have multiple phones and tasks that you are trying to juggle in a day, this would be a great option for you. The service allows you to make and receive calls in Gmail, this can be good thing. Eventually this tool will be useful to publish business blogs on bloggers, share project images, track industry news, and advertise within one application. Not to mention, the idea of keeping up with one user name and password; a big problem I’ve always had was trying to remember my log in information. The voice service can become a great addition to any business depending on individual use. Until all kinks are worked out, I feel this voice service would be useful for a business as a temporary service, especially if you had a large clientele that depending on you. As for a Doctor’s office, I would recommend the use of this service for lunch hour only unless it was an emergency call, of course I would redirect those calls to an emergency number.

Organized Voices

This is a really nice web-based platform for handling and managing business related calls, especially from a home based business. I think that getting a voicemail sent to your email is really nice. I think I would rather read a message than listen to them anyway. Also, it eliminates you from having to give out your personal phone number. This application allows users to send free text messages and receive a transcript of your voice mail, is a really cool application to have. I think this will be a good tool to have because not only will you have a track record of conversations, you will be able to differentiate between business call and personal calls. If you work from home and you need a phone service for your business, I feel this would be great, because you could forward your personal calls to your voicemail and attend to these calls at a later time without being disturbed from your business related work. I feel this is also an inexpensive way to have the communication with organization.
