Increasing your small business cash flow by using 10 awesome applications...suggestions from Inc. Magazine

The choices are growing and their power is increasing.

Gene Marks writes in Inc. magazine:


"Of all the choices available, here are 10 great mobile apps that will help increase your company's cash flow too.
Basecamp. A good customer relationship management (CRM) application is important for finding and nurturing customers and prospects. But a good, mobile project manager will keep all deadlines and jobs on track, whether they're for customers or just internal. And that's what Basecamp does, with tasks, Gant charts, alerts, workflows and other team building and communication tools. With Basecamp, your projects will finish on time and with better results and your bank account will show the results.

DocuSign. Ever since my company began using this service we've seen our sales cycle decrease substantially and our cash flow improve. With DocuSign, our quotes, contracts and service agreements are uploaded and immediately sent, with a link, to our customers for their e-signature. No more printing, converting, faxing, mailing and e-mailing. No more undelivered messages, bouncebacks, wrong recipients, bad addresses or missed communications. Our clients receive, review, click their approval and everything's legal and ready to invoice.

Feedly. Knowledge is power and with Feedly, a mobile newsreader, you've got all the knowledge you need right on your smartphone and it's updated every second. I create categories in my Feedly app to bring me up to the minute news on products, services, technologies and the latest developments in my industry. And OK, I'm also interested in what the Kardashians are up to too, OK? With Feedly, I'm able to answer customer questions, bring them the most recent information and know what my competitors (and Kim and Chloe) are doing. I help bring my customers information about their business, their industry and the economy that they often don't have time to learn. This helps me stay one step ahead and provide a value added service that people continue to pay me for.
 
Insightly. Insightly is a powerful and fast growing cloud and mobile based customer relationship management (CRM) application that will enable your sales team to track their sales, forecasts, opportunities, follow-ups, contacts, notes and calendar from whatever device they choose. With Insightly, you'll find potential sales that were once lost will stop falling through the cracks and your mobile team will be up to date on their prospects and customers."
