Useful Business Tools

Running a business requires focus, effort, nous, and organisation, amongst other things. There are many challenges a business owner faces every day that take their attention away from the “big stuff”.
Unfortunately not every business owner can delegate staff to the tasks which can otherwise alleviate these challenges. Their efforts can quickly become fragmented which can lead to a dilution of their time, energy, and creativity.

Fortunately there are many tools, strategies, and online help that can assist in things relating to productivity, focus, reputation management, social media monitoring, website analysis, customer relations, or even tools of a technical nature, such as graphics and video production, email marketing, and online storage.
So what are some of the daily activities that may be less of a burden given the right tools and strategies?

• Time management
• Project management
• Centralizing support and customer relations activities
• Monitoring social media activity
• Reputation management
• Website performance and analytics

While there are numerous commercially available tools, software's, and online subscriptions and services that can provide all these functions, it must be said that there are also many free tools that are comparable in functionality.
When we come across such tools we will endeavour to let you know about them...
