Imagine if you could update all of your social media channels, keep tabs on what your competitors are up to, keep your content organized, and make sure you don’t spend hours looking for information buried in your Inbox? Let’s look at some creative IFTTT recipes.
IFTTT (If This, Then That) is a tool that has the power to do all of that almost automatically once you set up key “recipes,” or processes, that you want to happen.
While IFTTT can’t do all of the work for you, it does set a brilliant foundation for you to do the things that you know will move your business forward.
It exists to help you be more productive so you can make the most out of the time you have each day.
Since I am constantly recommending tools like Asana (Got Asana? Make the Best Use of It), Trello (Unconventional Business Uses for Trello), and Evernote (Could You Run A Business Using Only Evernote?) to run a small business, I get asked pretty regularly which one would be right for you and your business – Asana, Trello, or Evernote.
Unfortunately, the answer isn’t straightforward.
First thing’s first, if you’ve never tried either Asana, Trello, or Evernote, play with each one in order to see which layout feels more intuitive to you and your business.

Do you have a love-hate relationship with social media? Does social media feel like quicksand?
How many times have you gone on social media for just a second to post something related to your business, but then ended up wasting hours jumping from one news feed item to the next?
Do you belong to lots of private groups you don’t have time to keep up with?
Have you ever felt so overwhelmed by everything associated with staying in the loop that you’ve declared it’s time to go on a social media sabbatical?
We’ve all been there!
Stay sane with this system that I created.
Social media can be incredibly useful for building your brand and gaining clients, but it’s difficult to use effectively when you have calls to take, content to write, and products to create.
How can you possibly find time to post six times a day on Twitter and twice a day on Facebook like experts recommend?
Luckily there are tried and true tools that will help you follow through with your social media marketing plans without taking a huge chunk of time from your day.
