Backend Systems To Increase Growth

This week, we are going to break down a few of the most useful, most effective, and easiest to use backend systems that you can implement and see immediate impact on your business. There are plenty of important front-end, client-facing processes, but without a solid foundation behind the scenes, you may not be getting the most out of your business. Let’s talk about it.

• Having a consistent, clear appointment scheduling software is essential for the growth of your business. Scrambling, ‘surprise’ visits, or missed meeting all together can negatively affect your work in multiple ways.
• Texting software allows clients to text a business phone number versus having to have a personal cell phone always in use. This way, you can have the same phone number clients can call or text without purchasing an entirely new phone line.
• CRM’s are massively important, but be sure to choose one that is a good fit for your business.
• File sharing in a quick, efficient way is a great way to boost productivity within your business. Using Dropbox or G Suite allows you to instantly share files of any size and encourage collaboration across the board.
• Maximize internal communication and alleviate email inbox clutter with Slack, a professional, clean instant messenger that your employees can use for quick, efficient communication in an individual or group setting.
• Password protection software may be the single most important investment you make for your business. 1Password and LastPass give you the ability to share a confidential password quickly, and revoke privileges if necessary.
• Having a team Kanban board software like Asana lays out projects clearly, step-by-step, and with assignments. This software prevents all those small things from slipping through the cracks.
