ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Patrick Frank, producer, writer, and principal of Patchbay Media, publishes his first book, "Zoom Out: The Video-First Playbook for Becoming More Efficient, More Productive, and Making Remote Work for You". In this book, Frank offers ways to utilize next-generation video-first tools to revolutionize professional and personal connections.
"We've spent 18 months complaining about Zoom and I knew there had to be a better way," says Frank. "The book is everything I learned from the entrepreneurs, professional speakers, educators, communication strategists and others who are admirably trying to make remote work better for everyone."
"Zoom Out" shows readers how to make remote work more effective by using video tools and strategies to collaborate better, deliver compelling presentations, create content faster, and approach business with a video-first mindset.
Key takeaways of the book include:
- How to beat Zoom fatigue by eliminating meetings
- How to grow your network by hosting and attending awesome virtual and hybrid events
- How to create trust-building content from everyday Zoom conversations
- How to host engaging experiences for family, friends, and coworkers
- How video-first strategies are revolutionizing entire industries and what these trends mean for your business
Here is an excerpt from "Zoom Out":
"I'm not the only one zooming out to rethink how things are done. I'm sure you've had some of these thoughts yourself:
'Do I really have to commute an hour each way to work in an office?'
'Do I really need to fly and get a hotel for this one meeting?'
'Do I really need to work from nine to five?'
This pandemic gave me an opportunity to rethink the status quo in my business and in my life. I realized remote work and video go hand in hand, and as a professional video producer with over a decade of experience, my expertise and my voice can be useful as we experience this global shift together."
Published by New Degree Press, this book is available through Amazon.
