Hub You - Business Productivity: Web 2.0 QuickList
Do you have clients that pay your invoices in 30, 45 or even 60 days? If so, then you are aware of how their slow can drain your working capital. Unless your company has a nice cash cushion in the bank, paying suppliers or even employees can become a problem.Asking your customers to pay your invoices quickly will not help either. Paying invoices in 30 to 60 days is an industry standard. And, if you work with large or midsize companies,
TaDaList.com - this is a 37 Signals product. I like it because my family can collaborate on to-do lists and I can access from my smartphone. So, we have a family grocery list - where any of us can add items - whoever is at the store can access via phone and see what needs to be bought.
Backpack.com and iOutliner.com - Backpack is another 37 Signals product - it is a to-do list on steriods. I can create a to-do list with notes, reminders (sent to my phone), add images, etc. iOutliner lets me create lists with an outline hierarchy. Both are aweso
Increasingly, it is received wisdom that you will need work experience prior to applying for your first job, and that, particularly in the arts, this will probably have been unpaid. The number of graduates has been rising sharply over the past few years, with employment competition becoming ever tougher, but do you really need to offer yourself as a slave just to get a foot in the door, and how valuable will such experience be considered by ot
The first thing I did was download Google's Browser Sync plug-in (go to Google, click More - click on Google Labs - Google Browser Sync is second one from the top. This plug-in syncs a Firefox Browser on any computer (cross-platform). It syncs bookmarks, folders, tabs, stored passwords, cookies, etc. So, I installed Browser Sync and logged in. Within minutes, all of my tabs and tab folders were now available on the iBook (I should mention that I have been using Browser Sync on my other computers: Mac G5 and my laptop PC.). So, I could use my tab organization that I have spent months perfecting to quickly access all of the websites I use to do my job.
Tools I use to do my job:
Writely.com - this is for quick word processing with easy-to-use tables. It is collaborative (well mostly - a little wierdness occurs when working simultaneously with others on the same document).
Google Spreadsheets - this is a great, full-featured spreadsheet. It supports multiple sheets and functions from sheet to sheet. It does have limitations in the number of rows/columns that can be created
Gliffy.com - this replaces Microsoft Viseo - it is super easy to use and creates beautiful, printable visual documents. It is also collaborative.
DabbleDB.com or GroupSharp.com - these are great database tools - really a toss up between the two - you will have to review their attributes to determine which is best for your application.
Google Mail - I eliminated Microsoft Outlook in favor of Gmail. The beauty is that my email lives on the Net. I am not tethered to a particular PC or Mac where it is archived. I can also easily access it on my smartphone (TREO 650). It also handles spam like a champ!
Google Calendar - I have my entire family using it. That means that I can access all of their calendars and see where we have openings. That way I don't miss the important things (like watching my daughter's performances).

Direct mail can be a powerful way to reach your customers. However, it is only powerful if used effectively. Here are some tips to help your direct mail campaign be successful.1. Mail to your customers more often. If you are now mailing 4times a year, increase the frequency of your mailings to 6 or 8times. If you increase your mailings by 25%, you shouldincrease your sales by at least the same percentage.2. Use

Foreign contact centers are the contact centers of a country in foreign locations. Foreign contact centers are also referred to as foreign customer interaction centers or foreign e-contact centers. These are the central points of an enterprise from where all customer contacts are managed. They typically include one or more online call centers also which process e-mail newsletters and postal mail catalogs and handle website inquiries and chats.

While ERP software is generally thought of as an enterprise wide application, one overlooked use of this type of software is to provide a specific solution for a specific business function. In this article I will explain how SAP software (which is usually implemented enterprise wide) can be used to automate your company's accounting function.Over the years Accounting has become more sophisticated. It's no longer a question of 'debit t

Is it really a battle, or merely a misunderstanding? Perhaps it’s time the business world takes another look at both of these two revenue producing activities. Both, after all, have undergone subtle changes in recent years.What prompted my taking a second look was a colleague who recently found himself “between jobs.” He’d worked in one area of Marketing or another for all the years I’ve known him. He’s good at what he does, largely

All of the tools listed above are FREE! At least for the beginning version (as you start to find utility, you may end up with a nominal monthly fee).
My goal is to completely move online with all of the applications I use to do my job. I am missing the following applications: Photoshop, Quicken and Quickbooks are all that are left. Then, I am free to use a super cheap PC or Mac to do my work. If you know of any great Web 2.0 applications, please email me at info@thoughtlava.com. Thanks!
