Teleworking & Businesses.

What are the communication needs?

The way and means of working are constantly changing and shaped according to the time and its requirements. Teleworking is no longer just a peculiarity of specific, but a fundamental way of ensuring that a company does not lose its productivity, whatever it occurs.

Today, businesses that want to continue to evolve and conquer the market. They must set up their procedures so that they can meet the needs of each period and each employee.

Therefore, in this article, we will cover important functional issues of remote working. For example, what needs have emerged with the rise of telemarketing and how they can be answered.

What needs were created in communication with the rise of teleworking?

The landscape of markets is constantly changing and now everyone knows first-hand how quickly requirements can change. That is why, in order to be able to cope, a company must first recognize the needs that will emerge in remote work. The five most important and practical needs we identified at VOICELAND are:

1. Need for agility

A company must immediately find an efficient way to work remotely without changing anything substantial in its communication. At the same time, a business should be able to maintain its professional identity and be able to offer everything as it does in the office. For instance, calls with customers, communication with colleagues, internal calls, transfer, and receipt of calls without being charged much more.

2. Need for reliable applications

To be fully productive a business with remote work needs reliable applications. That is, applications that can support alternative telephony modes, such as the popular telephone over the Internet. Moreover, they are not only functionally reliable, but they can also offer multiple communication options and technical support.

3. Need for immediacy (Teleconferences)

The power of image in communication is undeniable. Remote work may have multiple benefits for the company and employees, but the visual contact will never be replaced. That’s why video calls are spreading at such a high rate. Teleconferencing is one of the most important means of communication and companies must now be able to organize it easily and quickly.

4. Need for new ways (Virtual numbers)

New ways of communicating need to be responded to quickly, because demands do not stop and costs must not escape. That is why the demand for virtual numbers has increased. Virtual numbers allow employees working remotely to have different phone numbers to improve customer reach and the cost of communication. For example, if a company’s base is in Athens, but the majority of its customers are in Thessaloniki and the employee is at his home in Crete, then a virtual number can help significantly in reducing costs, but also in the trust of customers who see the number from their city. On the other hand, customers will not be charged extra charges due to outgoing calls.

5. Need for grouping (Call centers)

Every business needs a call center and in the case of remote work, the call center must be able to operate outside the office and offer all the necessary functions. The need for call centers that fully support “remote” has grown steadily in recent years and is expected to continue to grow.

Teleworking: How can these needs be met?

All the above-mentioned needs can be addressed quickly, economically, and effectively with VoIP telephony, that is Internet telephony. Why?
