Hangout Now With Your Employees Globally With Google Plus

Google Plus is one of the latest addition to the increasingly building social media networks globally. Though there is a facebook, a twitter already existing, Google + is the latest social media network, which lets you do much more.

Great, but how is it beneficial for emerging businesses?
Every product has a certain market to address and is made with a vision, which largely defines its features and how it is building up. Google + in the similar manner has various features with which it is aiming to engage the TG and evolve the social networking online.


The screen capture above shows how Google Plus looks like!

Hangouts, the game changer!
One of the most interesting features of Google + is the hang-outs. Most emerging businesses always are on the look out for smarter tools which help them take their game to the next level by smartly saving operational costs. Google + hangouts help SMEs connect with their closed network while being online in the format of a video conference.

How do I create and join a Hangout?
One of the strongest features of Google Plus, the Hangout, is easy to work with. All you need to do is click the link on the bottom right which says "Start a Hangout" in green color! Once you do, a new pop-up window appears which shows you the following screen as shown in the screen capture below:

All you need to do to start a video conference with the closed group of people that you have is to click the hangout button in the green color and start the video call. Its free and you can catch up with anyone in your circle "professional" at any point of time, while all have to be logged into the Google network.

And you don't have to log out of your Emails!
While you are in a hangout, you can all the time be logged into your Gmail and do everything you wish to. It automatically figures out your laptop camera and hence you don't really need to do anything else to start a hangout.

How does it help my business?
In the simplest of its essence, a hangout can help small businesses to essentially cut down on cost and time and get global teams together to manage projects, quickly have a discussion around a focused topic and get the execution on track at all times. It can also help you do a virtual walk-through of your progress as an emerging company with your investors and other stakeholders.

There are many such online tools available, which are benefiting the Small and Medium Enterprise segment. To know more, get in touch with the experts at IndiaMART Knowledge Services. Do drop in a comment to this post to let us know what else would you want us to share about.
