Are you an unwitting Unmeetable? Jabra's latest marketing campaign takes on the accidental disruptors of online meetings: Those with poor audio issues. These range from people who can't hear you, you not being able to hear others, and background noise that causes all sorts of disruptions.

Losing the label of Unmeetable is simple thanks to Jabra's high-quality, professional audio solutions for the workplace — whether that's an office or your own home.

286 Million Professionals Still Don't Use Professional Audio Devices

Jabra hopes to corner the market of people who regularly meet online but still use just a laptop, without any audio management technology. Of the 572 million professionals in the world, at least half still manage their meetings like this. Other stats from Jabra include:

• People collectively spend 5 billion hours a week in meetings.
• Around 50% of people in online meetings report having to repeat themselves.
• A third of those who don't use professional audio products report having complaints about their background noise.
• Only 40% of people meeting on a laptop say their audio is top quality.

With companies across the world looking to increase productivity and reduce costs, it's incredible that more aren't investing in higher-quality audio equipment for their team members. Even five minutes lost due to loud background noise or having to constantly repeat information gouges into productive time. Plus, if messages are missed, this can cause major damage to effective collaboration efforts.

Take a look at the video below to find out more about how Jabra is helping Unmeetables overcome their audio nightmares.

The Primary Problems — Why You Need Professional Audio Devices

So, what makes someone an Unmeetable? They may have any of the following issues:

• Too much background noise
• Low microphone quality
• Every computer sound comes through the mic

Noises like busy roads, excessive typing, and even barking dogs can be distracting and cause critical information to be lost. With professional headsets and speakerphones, every word is crystal clear.

Jabra has put a simple and fun test together as part of their Unmeetables campaign. You can click here to discover if you're an accidental Unmeetable and what kind you might be.

Jabra's Solutions For Unmeetables

How do you go from Unmeetable to Unbeatable? By investing in the right types of professional audio equipment to address your particular pain point. Jabra has sorted Unmeetables into handy groups to help you understand what you might need the most.

Turbo Typing Toni

If you're constantly typing notes, minutes, or emails while on calls, you might be a Turbo Typing Toni. Multitasking is great for improving your efficiency, but without audio management, the tap-tap-tapping of your keys could be distracting everyone else.

For situations like this, Jabra recommends the Jabra Speak2 75. One of the best professional speakerphones for hybrid working, it's portable, works well in small spaces, and uses cutting-edge Voice Level Normalization to ensure you're always heard — without all the background noise.

Noisy Neighbored Nick

Hearing loud voices in the background disrupts all types of calls and meetings. It's not your fault if you have loud colleagues sitting around you — but you can do something about it.

"Nicks" need a Jabra Evolve2 50. This professional headset can be optimized for MS Teams or Unified Communication, but most importantly, it effectively silences your surroundings thanks to active noise cancellation (ANC).

Dog Mad Dougie

Ever been on a meeting where suddenly someone's pet is the featured speaker? Maybe your dog or cat likes to get in on the weekly forecast? It's cute — but it doesn't help with productivity, especially when they start barking or meowing.

Get around this problem with the Jabra Evolve2 65 Flex headset. With hybrid ANC and an Open-Office approved Jabra Clear Voice mic, it's essentially puppy proof.

Space Invaded Suzi

Anyone who works from home with other people in the house will relate to Suzi. She's got noisy family members in the background and kids that just wander into the room at the worst times.

Get back to feeling professional with the wireless Jabra Engage 55 headset. Suddenly, it's easy to calmly walk away from distractions while on an audio call, and impressive noise canceling helps you be heard better on video calls.
