Have you ever had a virtual meeting attendee interrupted by a dog barking, a child walking in the room, a lawnmower, or the neighbor’s supercharged car? It is disturbing for your attendees or clients and it can also knock you off your planned presentation.
Take the time to create a good audio background. This means a quiet room. This means a locked door. This means no pets during meetings. This means sound insulation if needed. This means letting your housemates know when you’re having an important meeting.
When you can’t control all of your audio background, look for technology to help you. Just like a virtual background changes where you’re meeting, noise cancellation can help you block unwanted sounds. KRISP is one of the best I’ve found, giving a limited number of hours a week and reasonable payment plan if you want noise cancellation all the time. Note that I do not receive any monetary compensation, but for using that link, I receive two months’ free trial.
