How to cut your business expenses
Cutting your software costs
I want to help you save money and I am never going to ask you for anything in return.
Every year I save thousands of pounds by not spending any money on software. It was the NetSuite pricing that pushed me over the edge one afternoon and drove me to look for a better deal for systems to run my business. It is now possible to perform most of the key business tasks using the software that costs nothing. Only the Lord knows why this stuff isn’t evryday knowledge for most business folks. Even the most savvy of small business people know very little about the methods I am give you here.
Follow this approach to copy me and start saving money.
- 10 minutes/day search on one term ie free wordprocessor.
- Capture the detail of everything you find (and your experiences) on Evernote.com ($0).
- Spend 10 mins. everyday giving your findings a very quick try.
In one month from now you should have found a really good list of free tools to help you cut costs and run your business. To help you get a head start here are some of the tools I have found and use on a regular basis.
To make this even easier for you I have listed each tool (on the right) with an equivalent (on the left) you will definitely have to part money for and may well have heard for or even purchased.
Here we go:
Just type the name of the free product to the search engines
