It's difficult for business to survive during these tough economic times. So if you're looking for ways to keep your competitive edge...

Watch out for these 10 things I Hate About Video Web Conferencing:

1) I live in Wisconsin and winters here are brutal. I like going on business trips to sunny California to get out of the frozen tundra! So meeting online makes my winter, warm business trip less likely.

2) Sometimes I would rather skip being "seen" on camera...especially when I'm working from home taking care of my sick child. Video web conferences makes face time easy - anywhere - any time.

3) Less business expenses to write off for taxes. Web conferencing slashes 68% or more off of business costs such as teleconference fees, long distance & international calling fees, courier fees, gas & insurance costs every year.

4) I'll have to deal with more customers, suppliers, and remote co-workers on a daily basis because it's easier to communicate better and more often online.

5) Possibility of being bumped up into a higher tax bracket because online sales presentations makes it easier and less expensive for you to double or even triple your revenue.

6) More time to sit in marketing plan meetings to grow your business since more routine business will be efficiently handled online.

7) More training sessions since it costs less to provide your sales reps timely, state-of-the-art, online training on demand. Web conferencing significantly lowers your training costs.

8) More meetings in general. Because online meetings are so economical, you can include key decision makers or employees - even if they're located across the globe - to get your business done.

9) Less exercise! Because you won't have to walk (or drive) to another building for a meeting, you'll have better use of your time during the day.

10) It costs money! There's no doubt that video conferencing reduces carbon emissions, is good for the environment, and is good for your bottom line...but it's not free forever!
