Tools of the Trade Tip 4

The fourth Tools of the Trade Tip is on how to get access to the office computer when I am out of the office.  Sure, you could get rid of the office computer and just take your laptop with you wherever you go.  However, if you are not yet to that step, accessing your office computer remotely is the next best thing.

I do so by using http://www.gotomypc.com/ which allows me to access my office computer from any other computer wherever I am in the world with an internet connection.  There are other remote tools such as ShowMyPC.com, WebEx, MS Net Meeting, PCAnywhere, etc.

The remote access is available for as low as free to several hundred dollars a year.  I use http://www.gotomypc.com/ due to its ease of use, quality of display of the remote pc's screen (which has improved from earlier versions), mulit-level security, and transfer of files speed.

Once you connect to your office pc you can run applications that are on your pc, check email, transfer files to another pc, and you can print documents on both the remote pc and the local pc that you are using to connect to the remote pc.

http://www.gotomypc.com/ is an excellent tool if you have a virtual assistant or personal assistant and you need to demo some new feature you want to add in a visual tour or show hoe to make changes on your website.  You just take your mouse and the assistant can watch on the pc to see how the work is to be done.

To have the best tools available to you in buying or selling a home, give me a call and put my toolbox to work for you.

Thanks and "Don't keep me a secret--I'm never too busy for your referrals!"
