Wondering How to Start a Zoom Meeting? Here’s Some Great Tips
Making your communication seamless is one of the first areas to look at when you’re wondering how to start a zoom meeting. We recently attended Zoomtopia 2020 and found the following tips were helpful. We wanted to share them with our readers because giving our clients every advantage when using this platform is important.
Use Zoom IM
Zoom has an excellent chat function that allows participants to jump into a meeting instantly. Participants just need to hit the chat button to get it working. It’s great for quick and effective communications. Our clients use it for everything from instant discussions with your team during an event or conference to larger business-wide announcements.
It’s a great tool to consider adding to the mix when you’re putting together a plan on how to start a meeting. Here are a few different reasons why we use it for our clients.
It Provides Feedback
Feedback is always important. With this chat, you can use emojis to take informal votes during any meeting. Or ask participants to click the “Add Reaction” icon. It’s even possible to create a custom emoji from an image or GIF.
Some people are happy using the basic Zoom meeting format. Others are looking to venture beyond the basics into something even more memorable and engaging. Here are a few tips for that group.
Tweaking Your Breakout Room
We can help you by tweaking your breakout rooms. Remember these user-friendly features are accessible to participants even if they don’t have a Zoom account. Not only do these work well for meetings, but they are also great for study groups and digital job fairs.
Changing the name on some of them makes them more specific and interesting. If you’re looking to mimic the one-on-one meeting experience, the latest version of these breakout rooms has an interesting feature.
Participants Can Choose
Now, participants can choose which breakout room they participate in without needing the host to help.
Here’s the last idea on how to make a great impact during your event or meeting.
Using different cameras creates an interesting effect that’s more dynamic. You can use various devices to create a multiple-camera effect. There is also an option that allows you to move from one video view to another simply by right-clicking. Understanding how to start a zoom meeting begins by sorting through the different options available.
