From our experiences at Comprehensive Consulting Solutions for Small Businesses, we have found that starting and running a business can be much easier if the business owner is using the right tools. Those tools could be help with various areas within the small business puzzle such as operations, marketing, recruiting, customer management, social media, website, and more.
Tools help improve a process such as Quickbooks to manage books, Sendible for social media, Shift for productivity, Vonage for phones, and the list goes on. We wanted to share a few new tools that can help you start and/or run a small business. We have revised our original resource list that was published in 2019. The list has useful info, resources, tools, and templates pertaining to business setup, business management, and marketing.
This list is not an endorsement for any of the companies, individuals, or links listed – it is provided only as information. We were not paid by any of those listed.
