Video calling allows you to make a face-to-face call with apps such as Zoom, FaceTime or WhatsApp on devices such as smartphones, tablets and computers.

Below are things to do before making video calls

1. Do test your camera and microphone ahead

This is especially important if you’re using a new software tool or logging in from a new computer. When you start using video conferencing software.

If you haven’t done this in advance, everyone else will be waiting on you to get set up. Then, if your mic doesn’t work or your camera isn’t turned on, they’re forced to troubleshoot with you.

2. Ask permission

Before making video calls, it is very important to ask permission from the person you intend calling. You need to be courteous in your attitude towards others.

3. choose a location with good lighting.

Lighting is essential for video calls, so be mindful of the way light hits your workspace. Ideally, you’ll want to be near natural light but without harsh light shining directly on you. If this isn’t possible in the location where you do most of your work, consider assigning another space in your home (like the dining room table or a countertop) to be your video call area.

4. Look presentable

Looking presentable before making a video call is absolutely important and cannot be overemphasized. Dress properly, so as to look smart and neat.

5. introduce yourself before you start talking.

Unless you’re incredibly familiar with everyone on the call (like, you work together on a daily basis), introduce yourself at the beginning of the call. This helps with putting faces to names and facilitating remote team bonding.

6. Be mindful of the background

Be mindful of your background before calling, ensure you are in a clean, calm and bright environment for easy communication. Avoid a noisy and crowded place when making video calls.

7. mute yourself or minimize your background noise.

It’s a good habit to mute yourself whenever you’re not speaking so that other participants don’t have to hear any background noise in your space. Background noise might include the sound of you typing, your child yelling your name from the next room, a siren blaring down the street, or any number of other distractions.
