Trying to totally organize every aspect of your business by yourself is a pretty daunting task. Fortunately, there are many different ways to keep organized. Here are a few tools to get you started on the right track.
Cloud Syncing for Projects
One effective way to keep your business organized is with Cloud syncing services like Google Drive or Dropbox. But there are a lot of other programs you haven’t heard of like the one from Amazon. Though many people have heard of the basic folder concept, the syncing across all devices is what’s most impressive for businesses. Google Drive is especially good at this feature which can be used for multiple people to keep their projects organized all at once. So if one person uploads a new project document, everyone who’s connected to that folder will get it. Then, whenever they update it, all devices connected to the folder will get the new update. Project organization has never been easier.
To-do Lists
Another great way to stay organized is through To-do list apps. There are a whole lot of these online, one example being Any.do. It’s hard to remember everything you have to do in a day sometimes when it comes to your business, never mind keeping track of what you’ve done and what you haven’t. These “to-do” apps will allow you to easily add a few tasks for any given day, and then give you an easy way to check them off one by one when you’re done with them. This particular app lets you actually add to-do tasks using your voice and a microphone button. You could share these tasks across the cloud too so everyone in a business knows what’s been done and what hasn’t been done. This will make for a much more organized team.
Time Monitoring
There are a lot of good reasons to keep an eye on the time when you’re involved in a business. One of these reasons is to keep track of what you’re spending on your business account in terms of sub-contractors. One example of an app that can help you with organization regarding time is Expensify. And even more than that, Expensify can help you keep track of all of your expenses while you’re on the road. All you have to do is take a picture of the bill or receipt, and it will be added in to the system and tabulated automatically for whatever purpose you need. Expensify is great for keep track of your taxes too, for example. That way you don’t have to worry about making sure you have receipts for everything and that they’ve been all added for you since Expensify has you covered.
Dashboards
One of the best tools you can use for organization include places like Domo.com and others that are dashboard services that will organize and crunch all of your big data for you. After all, there is a whole lot of data there and it would take you forever to properly go through it and find the bottom line for what you should be doing next with your time. Dashboard apps make it so that you don’t have to worry about going it alone.
