As online business owners, we are constantly looking for tools to help our businesses grow and to make our lives easier.  Below are some of our favorites that we couldn't live without.

This site contains affiliate links to products we frequently use  and want to share.  If you click through these links , we may receive a small commission for purchases made at no cost to you.

The Remarkable 2 is a tablet that feels like writing on paper and holds all of your notebooks, notes, pdf downloads in one place.  I use this everyday for all of my notes for all of the things, everything in one place.

Teamwork Projects is the glue that keeps Reynolds OBM together.  This is the best project management software for teams.  Not only can you track tasks, who they are assigned to and how long they took on a project, but your dashboard will show everything across all of your projects so you really know what's going on.

Slack keeps everyone in the know and is a must for our virtual team.  Need to discuss something right now and want to avoid a meeting (ugh with all the meetings), send a message in chat.  The best part though is how it brings virtual teams from all over the world together to chat about their day, argue over whether the new Star Wars thing is good or not and what time happy hour is.

Have you ever tried to set up a meeting and it took 5 emails back and forth.  Think about all the wasted time spent when you could have Acuity automate it for you!  A prospect clicks on a simple link, picks a time and gets a confirmation without you lifting a finger.  Want to send a questionnaire or take a deposit? Easy enough.

We use Quickbooks Online for our clients' and our own books.  You don't need to be an accountant to track you income and expenses.  Set up a payment account and you can receive payments directly from your invoice with credit cards or super low fee ACH! (which basically pays for the subscription!).

Everyone knows that they should keep their passwords safe.  And yet so many people still have a spreadsheet with all the passwords listed laying around somewhere. Probably with their bank login info.  Be smarter and get LastPass.  It's an encrypted vault where you can share passwords to your team safely.

Virtual teams need virtual meetings to stay connected and on track.  What you don't need is some complicated system no one can use.  Zoom is easy, has tons of features and integrates with other apps to make you life easier. You can also use it to record videos (or meetings to make sure you remember what actually happened.)
