EPISODE 59 : The 5 tech tools I use for my business

We live in such a fortunate time when it comes to having access to technology to run our businesses.  And sometimes this can help and at times it can hinder.  So in this episode I wanted to shine a spotlight on 5 of the tech tools that I use on a daily basis to help move my business forward.

Certainly nothing ground breaking but it's the simplest of resources in our every day that can have the biggest impact.  And I've found with with each of the tools that I have highlighted throughout this episode. 

Now I know that whilst my business isn't techie or anything, not even complicated as such ... but I also know that I run my business just like so many business owners, so sharing this knowledge may provide the insight others might need to address some of the concerns in their businesses.  Or it may even uncover a different way of using the same tech to serve a different purpose in our every day business operations.

So this episode is my own private ode to the tech tools that not only do I love, but help me get through each day.

This episode discussed tools that relate to;

• Project Management
• The organisation of all my business ideas and how to simplify this 
• Ways to make the assets and content that I create in my business look fabulous
• Video editing and why you don't need to be a tech creator to be able to perform these simple tasks in your business.
• And of course ... financial management and how to use platforms to turn an ordinary number into something more meaningful that you can control and make work for you.

If any of these areas highlighted have you saying ... "yeah, I'd love to know more about what I can use to assist me in that area of my life" ... then this is the episode for you.
