When running a #sidehustle, one should be able to really have a grasp on the old adage “don’t work hard, work smart”. Having to balance your business with your busy home life or even another day job, organization and fast decisions is key to success.
Thankfully, things are much easier with the help of apps! With the growing number of apps daily, it is important to have all your bases covered. Here are 5 important aspects of running a sidehustle, and some new apps that can help you accomplish them.
1. Cost Effective Communication: Rebtel
Whether you’re on a business trip or sending an your employee on one, having international calling services are of prime importance in making sure that decision making is done seamlessly real time. Rebtel will also help with communication cost when talking to international suppliers as you are able to make free calls from Android devices to numbers in almost 50+ countries on 3G or WiFi.
2. Time Efficient Transportation: Waze
While there are hundred of navigation apps out there, Waze tops my list because the information is coming from millions of users being your traffic reporters real time. Saving time getting from one place to another allows you to stay composed and professional. Being late to a meeting is never a good look, so make sure you are informed of reroutes, heavy traffic, and accidents so you can avoid them. You can even check where the best refilling stations are for gas!
3. Accounting At Ease: Xero
Being able to access your books anywhere is now possible with cloud accounting services from Xero. It’s simple, smart, and secure. It allows people to pay bills, import bank information and transactions, pay your employees and create easy invoices anywhere with a few clicks on your devices.
