Step-by-step: How to register for a Zoom account

More and more of my clients are reaching out to me on what platform to run virtual video-based meetings. There are quite a bit of services out there such as Zoom, Google Hangout, Facetime, GoToMeeting, Skype video, etc.

Hands down, Zoom is the winner here. The free account give you access to unlimited 1 to 1 meetings. For group meetings, the free account limits you to only 40 minutes. If you need to do group meetings, consider upgrading to the paid account for only $14.99/month.

If you are a funeral home, you can use Zoom to video stream funeral services, conduct virtual seminars, meet with at-need and preneed families virtually to go over your products/services, meet with your remote staff, etc.

If you are a home improvement company, instead of face-to-face in-home appointments, you can now conduct virtual appointments.

Here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to register for a free Zoom account.
