It was not that long ago when American business people
traveled for training, sales calls or other corporate-type meetings. But when
the Recession hit, travel budgets were reduced. This left many mid to upper
level management personnel to find other ways to meet with valued customers,
clients and vendors. If business travel
is still out of the question, Enterprises TV has some suggestions.
Online training gives employees the opportunity to advance
skills or learn new ones from anywhere at any time on any device. There are a plethora
of options available in nearly every possible topic relating to business.
Encourage collaboration among students/employees with quizzes, discussion
boards, video chats, and surveys. This gives people a chance to get to know the
other students.
Internet-based meetings are also a good way to connect with
valuable business partners. Consider using resources such as Skype, GoToMeeting
or a smart phone app like What’sApp to connect and hash out contract points,
sales prices or marketing objectives. All of these allow face-to-face meetings
without the added expense of flights, car rentals and hotels. The Enterprises television show suggests finding and utilizing as many training and meeting applications
as needed, and take advantage of all of them. Explore their functions in
totality. Test them in-house before a training class or meeting is scheduled to
get used to how they work. Even though many companies cut travel expenses, you
can still connect with those who are valuable and necessary to the operation of
your business.
