Five Must-Have Tools for Your Small Business
5). Scan Pro (former name — Scanbot)

I haven’t used the Printer Scanner since I discovered Scan Pro. I like that it notices the text on its own, and I can save the image in pdf format. I can send emails directly from my phone or send the file to Dropbox.

The best part is that you can quickly name your image; scans are no longer lost under titles such as “Scan 2020–12–18 09:50”.

At the moment, I am satisfied with the free version. The premium version allows you to filter scans by text or create folders for scans.

4). Slidebox — Photo Manager

I have about 10,000 photos on my phone.

Some contain important documents. I waste a lot of time looking for them because their names are not useful.

This application allows me to make limitless collections and, afterward, move or erase photos, all rapidly.

3). Fillable document

We cooperate with about 20 tour operators. I have to make a different template for each tour operator, based on which to create the contract with each tourist. This Google Docs extension makes my job easier, reducing my errors. I also use it to create offers for customers, with predefined, more attractive templates.

Once you have created the template, all you have to do is fill in the fields you set and generate the document; it’s ready to be printed or downloaded as a pdf.

I think it took me a year to find this tool, but it was worth the wait.

The first ten documents can be created for free, after which a monthly fee of about $9 is paid.

2). Medito: Meditation & Wellness

I am not a meditation expert, but my days can sometimes be crowded with tasks, emails, and reminders.

I try to put them all in the daily planner and in the google calendar; then the phone rings, and I feel like time passes without doing much.

My head is so loaded that I can hear my brain screaming for a break!

Medito is a useful free application with a lot of sections: daily meditation (my favorite), work-life, sleep preparation, coping with the pandemic, unguided meditation (only a timer), SOS sessions, overcoming negative emotions, finding appreciation, empowerment, mantra (meditative affirmations), meditative ambiance (sounds), walking meditation, loving-kindness, or body scan.

The creators of this application are geniuses! For daily meditation, you can choose how much time you can dedicate: 3, 5, 10, or 20 minutes.

1). Refrens.com

If I had to recommend just one tool, it would be! It’s a website that helps you make quotations, simply, with a modern design.

I noticed that they always improve the quotations page. These days, they have added two facilities for each product or service included in the quotation: a descriptive text and a picture.

What I like most is that it’s entirely customizable.

You will save time when sending the quotation directly from the application.

Clearly, Refrens is my miraculous tool for this end of the year, especially since I notice a high degree of concretization of the offers in reservations. I think this way of presenting our services is easy for customers to understand.
