Now they send letters and documents by post, fax or computer and they make phone calls from home or office or, thanks to mobile phones, from wherever they happen to be. The telephone with its various services has revolutionized communications both at homes and work places.
There are many new services which include:
‘call waiting’ which warns you while you are in deep conversation with your travel agent that a business associate is trying to get through
‘call diversion’ which diverts call from your office to another one, even a mobile phone
‘caller display’ which shows you the number of the caller. It is just like having a look at who is walking up the garden path before opening or not opening the door!
‘the three way calling system’ enables three people in three different places to talk for business or family reasons.
The list of services, thanks to advanced technology, is long and presumably will grow. British Telecom’s new VC8000 system puts videophone capability into every personal computer and thereby enables business colleagues to see and talk to one another without leaving their desks, sharing spreadsheet, accounts, drawing, diagrams, sales figures and designs. People can phone and fax from trains and planes and they can have their telephone line linked with a special set-top box on the TV which enables them to call up a wide range of services on their screen. They can buy things, carry out financial transactions, get information – all without leaving their chairs.
Long term business success requires dedication to continual innovation so we can wonder what is in store for us.
