Top Tech Tools for Small Businesses and Freelancers

by | May 11, 2007 | Tools & Technology for Non-Techies, Underwire Newsletter

Here at Work Industries we use a lot of web-based tools to help run our business. I’m interested in what tools you love to use for your business. What tools do you recommend?

Post them in the comments and perhaps some of your favourite tools will make their way into my presentation on Wednesday at the Editors’ Association of Canada—BC Branch Meeting.

Wednesday, May 16, 7:30 pm
Welch Room, 4th Floor, YWCA Health & Wellness Centre
535 Hornby Street, Vancouver
Tried, Tested, and True: Top Tech Tools for Business

Web-based tools allow for simple, cost-effective ways to access information from any computer. In this one-hour presentation, you’ll learn about the top web-based tools used by one small-business owner, Monique Trottier, to:

* organize and share files with clients and project teams
* manage multiple clients’ contact information, project documentation, and correspondence
* track time, and subcontractors’ time, against each project
* create invoices and track payments

Although the discussion focuses on web-based tools, alternative desktop applications will be discussed, and audience members will be invited to share their top tools with the group.

You’ll leave with a better understanding of how to assess and use web-based tools in your business.

Please join us! Admission is free for EAC members. Non-member admission is $10 at the door ($5 for students with valid ID). Light refreshments will be served following the program.
