How to Turn Your Google Pixel 4 into a Business Powerhouse

So, did the charming new Google Pixel 4 sweep you off your feet by making you buy one for yourself? Well, lucky you! Google’s new offering has more tools and features that can easily make it a business powerhouse. And it does so by letting you accomplish more tasks on the phone quickly. Let’s look at some ways the new Pixel can change the way you work.

Converting the Google Pixel 4 into a Business Phone

This phone was released on October 24, 2019, constructed with an aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass 5, available in black, white, and pastel orange. Like past Google phones, the Pixel uses a USB-C connector at the bottom and has no headphone jack. However, it makes up for it by offering a whole lot more.

First, to use your Pixel as a business phone, you need to not only have access to resourceful tools but also be able to answer business calls on your phone. You can get a 1800 number or a local number for your business, or set your current business number to forward to your device. This way, you can stay connected with important customers and contacts no matter where you are. This is especially useful for freelancers, running their own business, who work during after-hours as well.

Now for the cool stuff. Google Pixel 4 offers a huge range of tools that encourage multitasking, productivity, and organization. Here are some of the most attractive features of the new Google Pixel 4:

• Dark Mode

• Motion Sense

• Latest Google Assistant

• Night Sight - Camera

• Portrait Mode - Camera

• New Camera Arrangement: Dual Camera (12MP Dual-Pixel and 16MP Telephoto)

Increase Productivity on the Go

Almost everyone uses their phone to check emails, send messages, make calls, take notes, and pictures. But the Google Pixel 4 has new features that take all of this a step further to inspire and encourage productivity. 

For example, the new Google Assistant makes it easier to use your voice to find and share photos, set up reminders, send messages, etc. Due to simpler integration with essential apps, you can multitask and control your phone with your voice only. The phone’s Motion Sense has been making waves by letting you control your phone without touching it. Unlock your phone, skip songs, snooze your alarm, all with a simple wave.

Another useful tool is the new recorder app. This app lets you search for words or laughter within the recording. More importantly, it automatically transcribes the recording so you can find the parts that matter quickly. This makes note-taking a lot more efficient.

An Ideal Freelancer’s Tool

Whether you are the head or director of your company, a solopreneur, or a freelancer, being able to access necessary tools on your smartphone can be a blessing. You can: 

• Use project and content management systems like Teamwork and Slack. 

• Keep in touch with group chats like Google Hangouts and Chat. 

• Keep track of documents and files with G Suite.

• Take high-quality photos with the new camera and edit them with Google’s editing tool.

• Record and transcribe interviews.

• Make and schedule meetings (online and offline), and much more.

Most individuals work with their phones. And having a separate business number ensures a reasonable work-life balance. In fact, if you are subscribed to a cloud-based phone service provider, like GlobalCallForwarding, you can even set your business calls to be forwarded to voicemail during certain hours. And additionally, have those voicemails sent to your inbox for record-keeping. Or, you can forward calls to a different department or team member during specific times of the day. 

Google Pixel 4: Get More Done

Explore and play around with your phone to see how you can get the most out of it. After all, we don’t buy new smartphones to merely make and answer calls. The world of smartphones has made it easier than ever to complete actions through a small device in the palm of your hand. Whether it is making bank payments through an app or to have Google Assistant make your office lunch reservation. With these new additions, you can turn your Google Pixel 4 into a lean, mean productive machine!
