Unprecedented times have shown some unprecedented behaviours, both good and bad. It’s now time to ‘show up’ and help as and when we can. If the You Do Better team can help you, please ask. This is not a shout-out for new business (our campaigns are rightly on hold) this is a genuine offer of support with your communications.
The team all work remotely and may have some advice or top tips, please don’t hesitate to ask. Our previous blog may also help, click here for more: For now, this is what we use to run our business remotely simply using a laptop and smart phone:
- DropBox, storing folders and files, with sharing options for each client and also we note it has options to start a chat or send files directly to Slack, although we’ve not used these yet. In addition, it has the facility to collaborate in real-time over Zoom, share Google Docs, PowerPoints etc.
- Asana, allows us to keep a record of tasks and who’s managing them, deadlines etc (desktop and app)
- Slack, an easy way to stay in touch (desktop and app)
- WhatsApp, for quick messaging, queries and reminders as well as sharing images and other files safely. You can also video-call, for free, too.
- FaceTime, we use this instead of Skype if all in the group have IOS.
Today we’re using MS Teams to chat with a client, it’s free if you have Office 365. If anyone has any top tips about using it, then all advice is welcome. Thank you and take care.
Other advice, from the BBC, that might be useful can be found here.
