As a small business owner you\u2019re going to have a ton of tasks to manage and keep track of every single day. It\u2019s easy to get overwhelmed, and this is where the power of apps can come in. By managing your workflow and reducing the time spent doing aimless things you\u2019ll be better able to advance your business.<\/p>\n

In this post we\u2019re going to cover the top productivity apps for small business owners, and how they can be used to transform your business. Most of the apps below will work across any smartphone or tablet-like device.<\/p>\n

 
\nAsana<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Asana is shared task-management software that helps you track every moving piece of large-scale projects. When working on projects with multiple people it\u2019s easy for emails, conversations and ideas to get lost in the shuffle.<\/p>\n

Asana makes sure every piece is accounted for, and you can track the progress of each project. You can set due dates and assign tasks to specific team members as well.<\/p>\n

 
\nDropbox<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Dropbox is an extremely popular could storage app. It allows you to store backups of your website, copies of documents and anything you need really. It makes it easy to share documents with multiple team members, and syncs easily across multiple devices.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re collaborating with multiple team members, or looking for a place to backup your files Dropbox will be able to help.<\/p>\n

 
\nDocuSign<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

If you need to sign digital documents, then DocuSign makes it easy. All it takes is a number of clicks and you\u2019ll be able to sign a document and forward it on to the right party.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re constantly on the go, then you can sign documents from whatever device you\u2019re opening the document on.<\/p>\n

 
\nEvernote<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Evernote is a very useful note taking app that sync seamlessly across all of your devices. It makes it easy to manage to-do lists, take random notes and have a place to store random digital media items.<\/p>\n

There is also a paid version of the app, which gives you a greater suite of tools, including more admin features, a higher storage capacity, and the ability to easily collaborate with other app users.<\/p>\n

 
\nDoodle<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Doodle is a great scheduling tool, which will help you keep track of your schedule across multiple platforms. If you already use Gmail, Outlook and Yahoo calendars, then this app will help you keep track of your meetings and appointments across all three.<\/p>\n

 
\nCloudOn<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

If your business relies on working within the suite of Microsoft Word tools, then CloudOn makes it easy to edit these files when you\u2019re on the go. If you need to make quick edits to a PowerPoint presentation, but only have your iPad, then this app has you covered.<\/p>\n

 
\nManaging your time as a small business owner doesn\u2019t have to be stressful. Any of the apps above will help you to manage your to-do lists, collaborate with team members, and keep track of the day-to-day.
