Adopting new tools can help you save time, energy, and optimize and improve your business processes. However, it can also take a lot of time to research, find them and then experiment with how to best utilize them.

In this episode, we share the tools that we are experimenting within our business and why we’ve chosen to use them.

Buying new tools is like buying a car. If you learn to drive and pay the maintenance, upkeep, and insurance, that car will take you on adventures. But if you just keep it in your driveway, it’s never going to work.

Whatever tools you choose to use for your business, it doesn’t have to be high tech it just has to be effective and a good fit for you and your business.

What new tools have you implemented so far?
