Remote Working Part 3 – Best online software

Quickbooks Login

self management more….

Before I share with you my kit of the best online tools that almost certainly help you to work remotely, I need to make you aware of one more item related to self management and especially to do with keeping your focus and powers of concentration

I’ve uncovered and verified a common habit in acquaintances who work on the net and I’ve been in contact with for over a long time line and I call this trait the 50 minute rule. I spotted these friends who apply themselves and work for fifty mins. and then kick back for a complete ten minute rest and are much more productive and generate a significantly better quality of work than friends who don’t have set working methods.

OK as promised I present you with my list of choice remote working software:

E-Mail

Google Mail won’t cost you a penny. But in my opinion the search and label (a bit like folders) functions are the best implementation I have encountered. The downside is it can be a bit slow on older machines

Phone calls

Skype
used to drive me crazy as the service performance was unacceptable, but three cheers for the engineers at Skype now as they have considerably refined the quality of the service. For few dollars a quarter they enable me to call and conference in any phone and Skype subscriber on the planet. The current version of Skype has a wealth of excellent functions and there are now plenty of of useful add ons.

Organising Content

Evernote
has connected over a million users in no time at all – it enables you to store, organise and add notes to any species of digital media on the net. Just go check it out…it’s free.

Invoicing, Time and Expenses capture, Accounting and CRM

You definitely know that my urge to work remotely was originally sparked off by Quickbooks Online, a small business accounting software web application. But it is easily beaten hands down by the free edition of salesorder.com – a lead to cash system that’s as easy to use as a kettle I looked at NetSuite whose pricing (and people) scared me off. My choice here is salesorder.com – Go check it out.
