Stay at home toolkit
Your working from home online essentials
Hi All, Clint here from theartistree website development and Google services.
With a changing day to day regarding both work and a decent lack of our usual ‘Australian’ social behaviour on the weekends, I wanted to do my bit in assisting those adapting to a work life balance and provide a short list of handy online tools. Many of you will already be aware of these services, but for those that aren’t, here are my fav’s conveniently listed under each general category.
If anyone out there needs online assistance please don’t hesitate to get in touch. My details are below.
Be well, stay safe, support all and be strong to lead by example.
Communication
Zoom video conferencing (Free account available)
Most of you will already be aware of this great communication tool for online conferencing. It’s great for keeping in touch for work and personal communication. If you’re looking to provide some services from a distance, get creative with Zoom and keep offering your one on one services running while in two different locations. Fitness, health, professional services and general consultations can still be conducted using Zoom.

DropBox file storage and sharing (Free account available)
DropBox is a must to bring your work home to store files privately so only you have access, and/or share important documents between locations, with clients and coworkers.

HighTail file sending service for large file sending (Free account available)
With everyone working at home and local bandwidth causing problems with programs slowing down online services, normal email can sometime take a while to upload attachments or freeze all together. You can either send directly from HighTail with any size file attachment, or more important very large attachments, or send to yourself to then use the file download link to pass onto clients. I generally send files to myself, copy the file download link after sending, and put it into a client email so all looks professional and importantly self branded. There are heaps of extra features and worth checking out to use at home or in the office.

Sales
Woocommerce online shopping website platform (Intergration with WordPress website available)
Woocommerce is the global leader eCommerce software to setup your business to sell professionally online. Woocommerce intergrates seemlessly with WordPress CMS and is very well supported to provide unlimited finctionality and integration with your accounting software and other/all unique requirements that may be required by your particular business operation without the larger monthly cost that Shopify has when wanting a store that a little outside of the base platform. It’s limitless in growth, adaptable to your needs, easy to use and manage and extremely cost effective once setup. An easy first choice for any online store.
