We are social animals. No way everyone sits back and FaceTime‘s forever. If we run competitor businesses, and I find out you’re only Zoom calling, I’d go face to face with your clients and have lunch or go golf. Guarantee I’d take the business. Give it time, people will be back.
Companies are doing well on zoom right now out of necessity, the only way any of them can stay productive right now is using telecommunication. That said, they'll be back as soon as traveling gives them a competitive edge again. Some will take the initiative, and others will travel out of necessity to compete.
