Quickbooks online
self management more….
Before I give you my collection of the best online tools that are sure to help you to operate remotely, I must make you aware of one more issue connected with self management and especially to do with keeping your focus and powers of concentration
I’ve discovered and verified a consistent trait in friends who work on the net and I’ve known for over a long time line and I call this habit the 50 minute effect. I discovered these members of both sexes who focus and work for fifty minutes and then pause for a complete 10 minute rest and are much more effective and generate a considerably higher quality of work than men and women who don’t have such distinct working practises.
OK as promised here is my list of favourite remote working web applications:
Electronic Mail
Google Mail costs nothing. For my money the search & label (categories) features are the best implementation I have encountered. The downside is it can be a bit slow on older machines
Phone calls
Skype occasionally drove me to despair as the call performance was unacceptable, but hats off for the developers at Skype now as they have substantially changed the quality of the service. For few dollars a quarter ! am able to call and conference in any phone and Skype subscriber on the planet. The current edition of Skype has an abundance of excellent features and there are now plenty of of practical add on applications.
Organising Content
Evernote has acquired more than a million users in no time at all – it enables you to store, organise and add notes to any species of digital media on the net. Just go check it out…it’s free.
Invoicing, Time and Expenses capture, Accounting and CRM
You surely know that my desire to work remotely was originally inspired by Quickbooks Online, a small business accounting software system. But it is shadowed by the free edition of salesorder.com – a lead to cash system that’s as easy to use as a hairbrush I looked at NetSuite whose pricing (and people) scared me off. My choice here is salesorder.com – Go check it out.
