By now, hardly anyone has missed hearing about the coronavirus (Covid-19) and the impact it’s had on our society. Many companies are doing what they can by asking employees to work from home and banning in-person meetings to help slow the spread of the virus.
For us, it’s important to do our part too. That’s why we’re offering all companies — regardless of size — the opportunity to use lynes completely free of charge for a period of time.
The art of working from home
Working from home isn’t exactly new — we’ve been doing it for a while.
But just because we’ve done it for a while doesn’t mean we’ve always had the right tools to make the most of our workday.
The point of working from home isn’t to work less — it’s to work just as effectively as if you were in the office.
That’s why we want to make sure you have the right tools to succeed.
With free access to lynes and all its features, you can easily hold video meetings, share your screen, and chat with your colleagues.
Feeling connected, even when working apart, is important — and with lynes, that’s exactly what happens.
Tips for great video meetings
- Check your tech first. Is your camera working? Is your headset connected to your computer? Avoid the classic “Can you hear me?” moment.
- Keep your camera on. Seeing each other makes meetings feel more natural — almost like sitting face to face.
- Welcome everyone. Start your meeting by greeting participants and setting the tone.
- Mute your mic! If there are many people in the meeting, the mute button is your best friend for keeping things pleasant.
- Remember your camera is on. If you start scrolling your phone, it will show — and since you wouldn’t do that in a regular meeting, don’t do it here either.
Stay connected. Stay productive. Stay safe.
With lynes, working from home is just as easy — and just as collaborative — as being at the office.
