Ferminon Tips on improving communication with your remote team

Nice! I heard about you guys on a producthunt newsletter (I believe) on neat remote working tools!

Ferminon Tips on improving communication with your remote team

That's a great suggestion for a blog post, we have something similar that describes how we became a (partially) remote team: https://blog.clubhouse.io/how-clubhouse-became-remote-friend...

We have someone working in Australia, so it mentions how we were able to make that work, and how we had to start being mindful of timezones.

It discusses some of the challenges that we used to face and how we overcame it — including audio/video difficulties (which we still haven't fully perfected) We're also going to be writing something about working remotely next week.

I do like the virtual coffee/tea idea, I'll probably pitch it to the squad and see what they think.

Sometimes the back and forward comms in Slack or any other project management tool (I use Clubhouse) can be a bit slow, so it's best to just get the person(s) and ask.
