When was the last time you remember having a day to sit down in front of your computer and work all day? The majority of business managers stay busy—from answering employee questions and attending business meetings to going out for lunch or dinner with current or prospective clients. While it may be nice not to be restricted to a desk all day, if you are carrying around a laptop you will forever be looking for a comfortable spot to work. Instead, many business owners have begun carrying tablets and smartphones—a much more convenient way to get work done on the go. With the need for a convenient electronic device, however, also comes the need for mobile apps that will make getting work done on the go a possibility.
Slack
If your team stays busy, you may find that a lack of communication leads to late tasks and confusion. You can avoid this by choosing a mobile communication app like Slack. Slack offers real-time messaging to keep your team in contact while they are on go. Additionally, it provides the features of message archiving and searches, so that you can find the information you need in a snap. This can make the work you do with your team easier, more productive, and a lot more pleasant.
Asana
Asana offers a mobile app that provides the benefits of clear communication and task management in one convenient bundle. Like Slack, it allows you to message your employees on a clear platform. You can even send messages to the entire team. Unlike Slack, however, it provides task management software to make sure your employees are on schedule with various projects and tasks. It features task assignment, where you can assign tasks to specific employees and have it appear on the dashboard, and a way to mark tasks as completed once they have been finished. Tasks are also organized into level of priority.
Lucion
When you are constantly on the go, one thing you may struggle with is document management. This is one of the major reasons that companies choose to go paperless. Don’t you wish there was an easier way to scan and upload files than keeping them organized until you can get back to your office? With Lucion mobile software, you can instantly upload receipts and other important documents using your phone. You can also access all of your company’s documents through your smartphone or tablet.
Mailchimp
Mailchimp is the mobile app you need to manage your marketing campaigns. It shows you the individuals on your e-mailing list, as well as which of these individuals are active. It also provides you an easy way to add people to your mailing list. This is especially helpful when you are on the go and someone asks to be added to your campaign. Instead of worrying about forgetting to add them by the time you get back to the office, you can add them instantly using your mobile device. Mailchimp also gives you a way to read reports and see which of your campaigns are most effective.
Insightly
Insightly is a mobile app designed to keep you connected with your customers, and with over 400,000 users in countries across the world, it does the job well! It offers e-mail integration, management for your tasks and milestones, an instant follow and notification system, integration with other types of software, and more. It even offers ways to track business opportunities and update your business information with innovative software. If you are looking for a way to stay involved with your customers while managing your business, this is an excellent app choice for your mobile device.
