Why Smart Business Technology? Creating Time and Profits

As an entrepreneur, and the founder of a technology company, I am constantly on the look for innovative ways to improve internal processes, do more with less, and thereby create time for more productive or simply to have more time with my family.

Many of these tips and processes have arisen out of a difficult situations. Having to let people go due to an economic downturn or other reason often forces us to go back to the drawing board and evaluate how we could do things better, faster, more efficiently, because we just don't have the luxury of lots of resources.

These tips are the little things that make a big difference. They can mean having to hire or not hire someone (try not to hire if you can). They can mean spending time playing tennis with your son or spending more time at the office.

By using innovative technology (much of it free or very inexpensive), you can do so much more, and often more effectively, than you could without it. And I'm not just talking smart phones.

Using technology to create time and profits isn't just about choosing and using the right technology, it's also about avoiding pitfalls. So in this blog I'll detail some of the lessons learned about choosing the incorrect technology solutions in my experience.

I'm passionate about entrepreneurship and I hope that what I share here will in some measure be useful to you in your efforts to build and manage your business effectively.
