Episode 324: Let's Zoom with Phil Simon

Phil Simon returns to the program to talk about a service that more people have started using in 2020… some whether they wanted to or not: Zoom.

This episode is sponsored by Bambee. When running a business, Human Resources issues can kill you.

Created specifically for small business, Bambee provides you with a dedicated HR Manager that can craft your HR policy, and maintain your compliance, all for just one low monthly fee. You don’t need to deal with HR issues – let Bambee do that for you. Go to bambee.com/timecrafting now to schedule your FREE HR audit. You’ll be glad you did.

Phil’s made a recent appearance on this podcast talking about his book Slack for Dummies. Now he’s back to share some of his knowledge and insights on another service – as well as another book he’s written Zoom for Dummies.

We spend this episode talking about the rise of Zoom use, what Phil’s first experience with Zoom was like, and some of the things Phil really likes about Zoom. If you’re new to Zoom and want to go from comfortable to confident with it, then this episode is well worth your time and attention.

  • What is a tip for people who want to get more out of Zoom? (27:29)

“Zoom is focused on user experience and focused on simplicity.“

– Phil Simon

Agent Sonya (2020) is the biography of a respectable housewife, who also just happened to be one of Soviet intelligence’s most intrepid and high-ranking spies.
