Suppose you’re looking to replace your outdated email communication system within your porn business and you want to speed things up and keep them professional. In that case, Slack offers the best solutions for you. They are pricy, but they are the best when it comes to how little you invest for the value that you get back. Internal communication is made easy with this platform. It allows you to create rooms that you can use for your team members while giving them roles and privileges for a smoother internal communication flow. There are so many features that you can explore with Slack.
The free version of Slack is unfortunately somewhat limited in many different ways
I usually like to start from the features and then tell you the prices, but I would rather just get into it with the prices so that you know what you can expect and I will tell you some more about the features as we move on with the review. So, first of all, I’m going to take a look at the free option. Yes, you do not actually have to pay for Slack if you intend to use it. The free version of Slack does come with certain limitations, and it’s important to know what you are missing out on as a small team of people who are probably working their hardest to provide their users with free porn or something like that.
So, the Free services from Slack are, well, free, but it also has limits in terms of how many messages into the past you can see from your team members and the integration with other apps and some other features. As far as the number of messages into the past that you can check out, that number goes up to 10,000. After 10,000 messages, they get deleted automatically and you can’t get them back. If you expect to shoot out more than 10,000 in a short amount of time, it is better to start with the upgraded version from the get-go. Also, you get a 5GB total file storage limit and 10 integration apps. You also get one-on-one video calls with your team members, and standard security protocols too.
The Standard and Plus options can be quite costly but are feature-rich as well
Slack's paid versions start from $6.67 per user per month, and go up to $12.5 per user per month. They can even be pricier than that if you’re looking for an enterprise solution. The standard package (the $6.67 one) comes with unlimited messages that you can look into as your history stretches all the way back from the very beginning; you also get 10 GB of cloud space per user, and an unlimited number of apps that you can integrate with Slack. Video chatting also gets upgraded to up to 15 members per call, and you also get some extra security features that can be really important to your business.
When you boost your package to $12.5 per user per month for the Plus option, you also get all the stuff from Standard (with better numbers like 20GB of space per user). You also get advanced identity management through systems that are rated as some of the most secure in the world. You also get around the clock teamwork and assistance where the uptime is 99.99%. This is a lot better than some of the free options out there, such as Discord and Skype. Also, with the Standard and Plus plans, you get 24/7 customer support, which will keep you on track and always assist you when you need it.
Get ready for straightforward communication by using channels and advanced features
Now, as far as choosing the right plan for your porn business, I would suggest starting with a free plan to get a sense of Slack and see how everything works. Then, as you build your team up and you become a small to medium-sized business, the Standard option should be enough for you. After that, when you have grown to include many members, you can move onto the Plus option. I don’t think that any porn site needs an Enterprise option from Slack, so don’t worry about that. I’m pretty sure that even PornHub doesn’t need the Enterprise option, and it’s probably one of the biggest porn companies out there. That should tell you about how big that enterprise option for a plan is, along with its vague price.
As far as the features are concerned, ease of communication is probably the most important thing to consider when switching over to Slack from any other form of communication (especially from emails). One of Slack's great things is that everything happens on channels, sort of like Discord, and everything is neatly organized so that you know where you need to go and post a message whenever you are looking for assistance. You can also search through the entire history of your messages and find something important. Finally, you can even work closer with other companies via shared Slack channels.
Get rid of emails and find out the joy of using Slack for all your needs instead
Getting rid of emails as your main communication mode is probably the most important point to stress when talking about Slack. You are streamlining communication with your team in your porn business, so that you can talk to your employees directly instead of through long-winded chains of emails. You can avoid all of that bullshit and just get things done more quickly as you streamline everything. This keeps all your conversations in one place, rather than scattered across multiple email conversations that even I have had the non-pleasure of experiencing in my work life.
You are going to reach the right people that you need at the moment more quickly. You are going to stay in the loop when it comes to everything since people won’t forget to Cc you, and you will also have to spend less time switching context when it comes to the conversations you’re having. It won't be like emails, where you are going to have to think about what the fuck you’re reading before you get to the substance of the message itself. Slack is just a much better solution than emails when it comes to communication and it even beats out some other communication options and keeps things in one place.
Top-notch security, and a setup process that pretty much anyone can understand
Of course, Slack takes security really seriously. You can see this with their identity and device management, data protection, as well as information governance. They comply with basically every certification from ISO, SOC, CSA, and so on. Trust me, security won’t be an issue that you will be facing if you ever decide to switch all your work to Slack. Of course, it’s not all about security, but about ease of use as well. Setting everything up on Slack so that your porn site can have uninterrupted communication between its members is easy as 1, 2, 3, 4. No, seriously, all you have to do is create a channel, then you send an invite, then you wait for your partner, and get the approval from the admin if that’s not you.
You can create roles for every part of your team from sales, to customer support, marketing, operations, and business development. These are quite important, so it’s nice to see that Slack considers them all when they give you the options to create roles across various channels. All of this is so well thought-out, that over 52,000 businesses are already working with Slack. These companies you can even communicate with through Slack Connect, which means that you can easily communicate with them too. You don’t need to integrate anything; you just set things up and start using it as an app. Of course, you can always access the API if you want to get into some more advanced features with Slack.
