Another productive Thursday is in the books. We held our weekly meeting once again by telephone, which seems to work better from a technological standpoint although I was unable to use my computer as a speaker. Everyone dials into a number based here in Iowa. Fun fact: the area code, 712, is where I lived for my first six years of existence then returned to begin my professional career. The only other hiccup besides my connectivity issues was Liston having a side conversation with someone while Josh is trying to relay brochure edits to me, so it seemed to work nicely. That being said, I think instances like reviewing a visual document call for a Zoom meeting because you can share the screen with other participants, thus they see the same thing you see.
With Zoom, they can watch you make changes to the document in real-time and let you know immediately whether it works or not. Some changes are going to take a little longer to make and because you do not want to hold the proceedings up by playing around with the content right then and there, you make note of them and fix it when you have an opportunity. The drawback to Zoom is that while you can use it on a mobile device, it is not always conducive to business when you are on the go as Liston normally is. A lot of factors at play in our meetings, it is a matter of finding the solution that best fits those factors.
