WHAT BUDGET-FRIENDLY TECH TOOL IS MOST IMPACTFUL FOR BUSINESSES?
If there’s one tool that has transformed the way we work and improved our client experience, it’s Scribe. Scribe automatically generates step-by-step guides as we complete tasks, making it easy to document processes and share knowledge across our team. Internally, it has streamlined workflows, reduced time spent on training, and helped new hires get up to speed faster. For clients, it means clearer instructions, fewer back-and-forth emails, and faster resolutions. It’s not only budget-friendly but also incredibly simple to use, making it a high-impact tool for any business looking to improve efficiency.
HOW CAN I LOWER TECH COSTS USING AI?
One of the simplest ways to cut unnecessary tech expenses is by using AI to evaluate software needs before making a purchase. Instead of automatically renewing or buying new tools, I ask ChatGPT: “I have Microsoft 365 Business Premium. How can I use it instead of purchasing [specific software]?” AI quickly identifies which features are already included in existing apps and what additional capabilities the new software would offer. This approach helps eliminate redundant subscriptions, optimize software investments, and significantly reduce unnecessary spending—without sacrificing functionality.
HOW DO I KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO SWITCH IT PROVIDERS?
If IT issues keep recurring, response times are slow, or security isn’t a priority, your provider is being reactive instead of proactive. A true IT partner should do more than just fix problems—they should align technology with your business goals, provide strategic guidance, and ensure your systems are fully protected. If you’re dealing with frequent downtime, vague billing, or a lack of long-term IT planning, it’s a strong sign that it’s time to switch providers and find a technology partner that truly supports your business growth.
