Getting your business through COVID-19
We’re encouraging our team members to pause and reflect, as the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly changes the way we work, interact, and even think. Here’s what Shawn has to say:
My name is Shawn Sears and I have been in the Telecommunications industry for 17 years. I am currently a Business Solutions Specialist at the Phone Experts, supporting Business and Corporate customers with TELUS products, solutions, and other technology platforms.
I have been inspired to write this message as I reflect on the rapid changes globally due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In my lifetime, I have not experienced anything quite like this…with so much uncertainty, economic impact, and self-isolation practices.

Businesses of all sizes are forced to make difficult decisions on how they will survive these unprecedented times. Some were forced to lay off team members and close their doors indefinitely. Others are operating as an essential service with teams setting up home offices. And everyone is just trying to ride this thing out. Everyone is pivoting to make the best of a bad situation and hopefully come out stronger on the other side.
Here’s what I suggest to those adapting to working at home:
Use Cloud technology with platforms such as Google Drive, Dropbox, Online Meetings, Office 365, and even social media! The options are endless.
Cloud communications can empower you and your staff to work from home, connect with one another, and aid in interactions with customers, merchants and vendors. It will help you keep a “business as usual” feel (albeit it is far from it) and allow you to continue serving your clients to the best of your ability.
A few more advantages of using Cloud services are:
Security
Ransomware and other malicious attacks are very common. Cloud keeps your data safe and sound, so you don’t have to worry.
Accessibility
Having the ability to communicate and access your systems from anywhere makes you flexible and available to your customers.
Scalable
Adjust your plan as your business evolves. The last thing you need are limitations – avoid that by using this great technology.
