Leverage Skype To Strengthen Your Small Business

If you are a small enterprise and looking for a smart communication tool that helps you get your work done in much less time and in a cost-effective manner, then its time for you to consider using Skype. With this business solution, SMEs can ensure an efficient communication process throughout the organisation by spending less while doing more.



Benefits of Skype



Considered as the best form of Internet telephony, the usage of Skype enables small businesses to work better with free Skype-to-Skype calls and video calls between colleagues while they are in office, at home or travelling abroad.



By setting up Skype, small business owners or employees can make long-distance international calls to their clients, suppliers or customers without incurring much expense, apart from the monthly Internet bill, which is much cheaper than using telephone service for making calls. However, if calls from Skype are made to other numbers then additional charges are levied, but they are also quite nominal, said Devank Maheshwari, proprietor of Sonu Communications, a small-sized communication solutions provider in Kolhapur, Maharashtra.



Moreover, Skype also offers a richer mode of communication, enabling businesses, small or big, to hold conference calls and share files as well as send and receive photos and videos through this effective Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service.



Skype is one of the best communication tools as it helps small businesses with worldwide customer base to connect with their global clients at no extra charge, thereby enhancing the quality of communication and driving more business, said Meenakshi Prasad, head of communications at Trilok, a small-sized manufacturing firm in Kolkata.



Therefore, mobility, affordability and easy-to-use functionality make Skype a perfect tool for small businesses. It can be integrated into the communication system without much difficulty.
