For growth-stage companies, the focus moves to professionalising the processes used in running the business. This additional structure, often lacking in the start-up phase, is made all the more easy by the range of technology solutions on offer today. Even the most tedious and challenging processes can be made easy and convenient.
But, where do you start when looking around to find the right technology to grow your business? Here are five ways we think you should be using technology to spur growth:
MANAGE YOUR PROJECTS
Successfully managing clients and projects relies on having the right systems in place to keep track of what has been achieved and what still needs to be done. In the early days of your start-up, a simple manual or paper-based system may have done the trick, but as you grow an online project management tool will be very useful. These systems allow you to schedule your workload, create To Do lists and add calendar features. These features are all aimed at helping you run your business and individual projects efficiently and conveniently.
