Workplace Wonders

Here are some of my favorite picks for the workplace. These are products that I’ve used for many years. By wanting to include these links, it means that I am now an Amazon Associate as I may earn from qualifying purchases. It also means I’m the nerd that read the FTC guidelines on disclosures pertaining to social media and wants to be certain that I comply with the rules.

Lumecube Light

This is a reliable portable light that allows plenty of options for tone and intensity. It’s perfect for video meetings, especially if you are in a space with unpredictable natural light. It also is easy to pack and bring along on your travels.  It comes with simple suction cup (for lack of a better phrase) that easily grabs hold of a PC or laptop without a stand. While a stand or tripod allows additional flexibility, it’s not a necessity.  I think the Lumecube is a good first step towards upping your lighting game.

Lumecube 30 Inch Stand

If you decide you want greater flexibility with the placement of your lighting, this tripod is small enough to pack away, but versatile enough to allow you a ton of lighting options. It’s quite sturdy and even my dog knocking it over several times, has not impacted its durability.

Jabra Headset

I am not one for playing games when it comes to stressing out my neck, so I love this headset. It’s easy to use and pairs magically with Bluetooth . It is also very comfortable if you want to use a headset for hours on end, which sometimes happens. It’s also very easy to adjust and has a sleek design.

GDrive External Hard Drive

Thanks to my friends who really know about technology, I always have back-up my documents, contracts and designs. I love this GDrive and find it works well for the life of my computers.

Logitech Camera

If you want to be sure that your images are crystal clear during a call or webcast, this is a terrific little camera. It’s easy to color correct and change the width of views, and best of all, it’s incredibly easy to set up.

Shure Microphone

Yes, it’s small and stylish, but don’t hold that against it. This powerful Shure microphone has made the difference in producing quality sounds versus something unreliable and “fizzy” sounding.
