What is a Video Call

What is a video call?

Annoyed with chain of email messages? Humanize Communications!!

Email threads take on a life of their own and last for months. Many times direct human contact is a more efficient method of communicating. A phone call doesn’t provide the subtle nuance of eye contact or body language.

Why video call?

  • Video calling makes conducting business more human.
  • When we’re trying to close a deal or reach agreement on some important issue, eye contact is a vital human element that we can only maintain through either meeting face-to-face or with a video call.

Computer-based video calls are growing in number every day, and it doesn’t matter whether it’s for business or personal use. The reality is that it’s used for both. Video is a popular and easy to use service that brings people close together

How does video call help?

  • Video calls allow you to do more business face-to-face.
  • You’ll build better relationships with clients and suppliers wherever they are in the world.
  • You’ll save heaps on travel as you no longer have to leave your office to meet your contact ‘in person’.

You will need…

Webcams are cameras attached to the computer that integrate with internet browsers and are increasingly common and increasingly inexpensive. If both caller and receiver have webcam setups, they can make free video calls.

Video Calling enables you to:

  • Add a more personal dimension to your communication.
  • Perceive the body language and facial expressions of the people you call.
  • Show others where you are and what you’re doing.

Video calling has taken on a new life in the past two or three years as we’ve seen VoIP be rebranded in a sense as unified communication. Video on the Internet gained attention with YouTube, but it’s become much more as sites like Facebook integrate video messaging too.
