Mobile only – working without a fixed computer
06 June 2023Working at home, on the road, or at the beach? No fixed computer, no tablet, but only on your smartphone: Mobile only. Keep track of administration, take notes, share files, manage projects, and sell only with your mobile phone. Is your company ready for this?
Mobile only working
Is your CRM package and accounting package in the Cloud? Can you manage mileage administration with an app, schedule meetings online, manage your calendar, handle emails, and print with your mobile phone?
Yes? Then you don't need another device anymore.
What must be possible with your mobile phone
To use your mobile phone this way, you must at least be able to:
- Separate private and business
- One number for office (landline) and private (mobile) on one device
- If you don't want to be reachable for business and see a business call, you can forward those calls without making yourself unreachable privately.
- Calendar insight
- Read and reply to emails
- Insight into colleagues' availability
- Call forwarding
- Up-to-date address book
- Always and everywhere good network coverage
What do you offer your customers?
Thanks to the ease of being online with the smartphone, it is increasingly unnecessary to use a laptop, desktop, or tablet. There are “older people” who never had a computer but can handle their smartphone well. Do you take that into account as a company?
Mobile only website
A mobile only website is made for mobile devices. When viewed on a desktop, elements will be scaled.
More searches via mobile
Google's figures show that more than half of searches come from smartphones. You want to quickly look something up, arrange something, play a game, read news, or update social media. That is easy because you always have your smartphone (your mini-computer with internet connection) with you. Payments are nowadays even easier than via desktop.
Mobile first indexing
Google has announced that the search engine will determine findability in Google based on the mobile version of a website. Are you prepared for that?
A few tips:
- Don't omit information
- No separate URL for mobile
- High mobile pagespeed
- Provide a breadcrumb
Do you also offer mobile services?
Mobile services provide convenience for your customers and lead to higher customer satisfaction. Once an app is used, it is often considered indispensable, so good for customer loyalty. Which mobile services do you provide? Do you do this via an app or a website?
Poor mobile service costs customers
Customers will look for another website when yours is poor on mobile. Quickly changing an address, looking up a number, sending an email becomes frustrating when it cannot be done via the mobile site or app. How is your website?
