Manage Costs and Productivity with Conferencing
Sure, there are some instances when seeing someone face to face is the only way to get your business done, but in many cases, you can accomplish just as much if not more by using Shanghai Shrine’s audio, web and video conferencing services. |
If your company is like most around the world, you are experiencing reduced budgets in response to the current economic environment. Key issues you are probably facing today are:
Protecting profit margins and achieving positive cash flow
Compensating for increased price of supplies/goods (higher cost of sale)
Maintaining productivity with reduced or frozen headcount
Keeping loyal employees despite layoffs, frozen salaries other and cost-reduction measures
For an easier way to connect to your meetings while you are on the go or to organize your dial-in numbers and passcodes for several meetings, Mobile Assistant gives you one-touch dialing into your audio conferences from your mobile phone.
Create a Travel Reduction Plan
One thing you can control is the hard and soft costs of travel. Having a travel reduction plan can help you manage expenses and improve productivity.
Conferencing limits unnecessary trips and is cheaper than a business trip
The average cost for a business trip in 2009 is expected to hit over $1000/person.
Over half of business travelers admitted that some of their trips were not necessary
Conferencing reduces time at airports and boosts productivity
Travelers lose 4-6 hours of productivity per trip
15% of business travelers surveyed said that business travel made them LESS productive
Giving employees more flexibility to manage their work/life balance improves job satisfaction and breeds loyalty
