But actually finding those time-saving, life-changing business tools? That takes time!

Gah, can’t we all just agree to pause the year for like, a week so we can all get on top of our to-do list?

While that solution is faaaar from being possible, today we are here to simplify your business and give you back your spare time with this breakdown of our favorite services and software options for small businesses.

Grab out a notepad and get ready, because this is seriously going to blow your mind!

 

KLENTY

Hands up if you’re an entrepreneur wearing many hats! As a small business owner, you’re a sales rep, a marketer, HR, the product team, and everything else in between – amirite?

Always on the phone with vendors, agencies, prospective buyers, and customers means contacting A LOT of different people. Cue: thousands of cold emails and follow-ups!

How many opportunities could you have lost from forgetting to follow up? How badly is your email cred suffering from landing in spam?

Drop those fears because Klenty can turn you into the best sales rep, customer service rep, HR, and account executive around town.

Klenty automates the process of sending personalized emails and follow-ups at scale. Hoorah!

Looking like you’re sending the email to the receiver and the email provider. No more spam-ba-lam! And no more missing out on those critical deals.

Try Klenty free for 14 days. No credit card, no surprises.

MAILSHAKE

Do you often forget to chase-up influencers or PR agents after sending off your pitch?

Well well well, say hello to your new best business friend. #SeeYouLaterDenise

Mailshake is an online tool that you can use to plan out targeted email campaigns with short sequences so that you can spend more time reaping the rewards of marketing instead of chasing up people who don’t care about your business.

Seriously – how many times have you followed up someone via email, 2-4 times before completely giving up?

How much time and money did that effort cost you?

Mailshake is the solopreneur’s best friend because it allows you to utilise your time wisely by only putting you in touch with the people on your list of influencers or PR agents once they take action and respond to your email. Once they’ve responded? The sequence will ‘pause’ for them.

The whole time? It looks like you are responding, but it is actually the pre-programmed follow-up emails being sent out in a timeline that you can adjust.

*mind blown*

To get your mitts on Mailshake, you’ll need to invest $29/month.
