Truecaller - Helps me to speed up πŸ“ž calling . It automatically recognises known phone numbers and copies them into the dialler so I don't have to type the number. When you make a 100 πŸ’― 😜 plus calls a day you need all the help you can get. Use the camera to scan a number to dial it! Accept my invite for the Truecaller app & get 1 week Premium for free!

Google Calendar - THE Number 1 calendar app. Just brilliant at scheduling πŸ—“οΈ and sending out reminders and alerts.

Your messages and contacts are secure and backed up so you’ll never lose them again. Trust me you won’t go back to Outlook after this.

Tawk.to - Respond to website visitors on the go. The mobile is to support the amazing FREE desktop app and website widget. Get alerted when website visitors comment on your chat window and respond on the fly. Program instant replies and harvest emails from visitors. Tutorial to come. Download it now right here

Google Keep - There are many note taking apps, some free and some paid for but if you use Android there are very few that beat this amazing ✏️ note taking app. I use it everyday to copy pre-written message templates and paste them to send out via Gmail and WhatsApp. Also great for adding mood boards and recording voice memos and inspiration in the moment. Add collaborators to manage projects. Download it here

WhatsApp - Full tutorial and features blog on it's way. Just brilliant πŸ’― for messaging, sharing photos and documents, international and local calling. Add it to your desktop by clicking web.whatsapp.com and synchronise it with your computer. Truecaller will also recognise shared contact details, quite amazing really and totally FREE. Download it here

Zoom/RingCentral - This video conferencing app changes the game. If you thought this was a crowded market, think again. This one will stick with you. I haven’t used Skype for over 8 years now and since I started using Zoom (Now integrated with our Voip calling system RingCentral) having online video chats with friends and clients all over the world is a breeze. No more awkward delays or freezing, πŸ‘‹ schedule meetings with your own dedicated meeting link and integrated it with with Chrome to fire up instant video calls on your desktop and smartphone. Download from Google Play here

Finally, LinkedIn, as the list could go on but I will stop after this with this one otherwise I wouldn't have any to share in the next newsletter.

LinkedIn - When synchronised with your contacts and calendar, it actually pulls out the contact you're about to meet direct from LinkedIn and suggest you πŸ‘€ check them out before the business meeting, and suggests to add follow up comments after the meeting. Crazy good at connecting with prospects and messaging people. Watch out for a comprehensive LinkedIn webinar coming up exclusive for partners soon. How to maximise LinkedIn to grow your business. Practical tips to increase your network of contacts, and warm up potential customers in your network. Download from Google Play here and make sure to synchronise it with your calendar and contacts.
