Working remotely
While most of the country is still in quarantine mode, some states have started to open up. Even still, businesses have learned a lot about their operations during their shutdown. Some companies are opting to continue operations virtually; having employees working remotely. Many companies have come to the realization that remote work offers many benefits. In any case, remote work is something that startups are doing now more than ever.
There are myriad tools and apps at your disposal you might have never heard of. If you’re just now discovering the benefits of remote work, you’ve probably never heard of these productivity tools. Here, you’ll get a good run through of some great remote work apps that were designed to help you stay efficient.
Working remotely using workflow app
Monday.com is an app that helps you track team projects and overall workflow. It’s easy to use for planning and managing everything your team is working on. You can use the app to add deadlines, make general comments, and create automations. The app offers a dashboard where you can attain data in real time on all the activity happening at your company.
Social media mastery
Preview is an app that concentrates on Instagram. With over 25 million business profiles, Instagram has rapidly become the platform of choice for businesses in terms of social media. Preview allows you to edit pictures with Photoshop-like features. You can schedule posts and find the right hashtags to expand your posts’ visibility. The app even gives you data and insights for tracking your audience and their behavior.
Spreadsheets
Dashdash is an app for spreadsheet geeks. For some, the smell of coffee is a satisfying thing. For others it’s a good work out. But for some… it’s a well-organized spreadsheet. All it takes is a simple formula to gain access to business data where you can find companies, generate leads, and send emails.
File sharing is caring
Slack is a tool. No, I’m not insulting the app. It’s literally a tool. A good one. Slack connects co-workers by making file sharing easy. It offers emoji reactions and a collection of GIFs (jifs? gifs? Send help) that makes coworker interaction fun. The app also integrates tools like Google Calendar for use.
Scheduling
Calendly comes in handy when it’s time to schedule. This app can be integrated into your landing pages, too. Visitors to your site will be able to see if you’re available during certain times. Calendly even allows visitors to request a call that will inform you about your company’s service.
