Many of us use the applications that can be downloaded onto an iphone, with new ones coming out on a daily basis. We were wondering which ones are the most useful to those who run their own small or medium sized business?
Martin Hood, our IFA, has suggested the following as his top three:
1. JotNot Scanner Pro – so that you can scan receipts, business cards or notes and save them as PDFs for emailing or storage for future reference.
2. Dropbox – which allows users to synchronise and share files across multiple computers and devices (this means he can access any documents saved to his desktop computer whilst out of the office)
3. HT recorder – transforms your phone into a Dictaphone, perfect for meetings, seminars and conferences for not only making notes but also converts everything into a file that can be emailed to colleagues.

Every week we begin our meetings with an inspiration slot – someone within the group takes a few minutes to share a story or experience that inspires the rest of us to continue to work hard to make our businesses successful.

We recently came across this clip which we think is a very interesting approach to setting specific goals for small business owners – maybe we’ll try this out in the weeks ahead!
