|
年關將至。對我來說，這是非常令人興奮的一年。截至目前，我已經實現了大多數目標。當然，這得感謝一些好工具給我提供了不少捷徑。 這些好工具可分為三類： 1.幫我提高勞動生產的工具。 2.花錢少而且幫我節省時間的工具。 3.對我的業務增長有幫助的工具。 準備好了嗎？讓我們開始吧： 生產力系統工具 一年多以來，我一直在遵循一個對我的業務產生巨大影響的系統。它包括三個簡單的步驟： 1.規劃正確路徑。 2.在恰當的日子開始。 3.采取行動時明確重點。 1. Google Docs 很棒的工具。我用它為所有自己想完成的任務做規劃。 2. Wunderlist 幫我列出進行中的事務清單，對完成第二天的任務幫助很大。 3. Accomplish 它幫我輕松制定當天的日程表。這是我的最佳日歷app，可以滿足我的全部需要。 4. Clear focus 要是沒有這么棒的工具協助，工作時就容易迷失重點。 5. 7 Min Workout app 這個app不光有普通的7分鐘鍛煉，還有各種各樣時長不同的鍛煉方式。 6. Headspace 一個很棒的工具，讓我在一整天里不停地轉換焦點。 7. Freedom Journal 最佳日記app之一。我喜歡的原因是它會提醒我在早上或晚上寫日記。 節省時間的工具 通常，我會在某些資源上花幾美元，目的是節省自己的時間或資源，對任務分組可以為我省下幾分鐘時間。 8. Upwork（以前叫做Odesk） 它不光是個工具，還是完成低價值任務的絕佳方法，這樣我就可以把時間花在價值較高的任務上。 9.99designs 我相信大家都知道設計工作多么耗時間。重新設計自己的logo時，我花了大把時間向設計師介紹我的愿景，但拿到的概念都不能讓我滿意，而且還占用了其他項目的時間。有了99designs，我就可以看到許多設計方案，從而節省大量時間。我從中選出自己喜歡的那個，要求反復修改，直到我滿意后再付錢。 10.Thrive content builder 開發一個吸引新讀者關注的設計非常困難。以前我會把這項工作外包給別人，但有了這個工具，我就不需要這樣做了。 11. Auto Text Expander chrome expansion 分享常見句子的絕佳工具，不需要在鍵盤上把整句都敲出來。 12. Buffer extension 可以同時在所有社交網絡上發東西，而不需要逐個進行。 13. Pocket 可以把遇到的重要帖子保存下來，周末再看。 幫我做大業務的工具 一些工具可以幫你加快業務增長速度，而且不需要你投入太多精力。在這方面，這些工具今年幫了我大忙： 14. Thrive Leads 這個工具的作用是從網站上接收多封郵件而不需要在密碼上勞神。 15. SumoMe 它包含一系列很棒的工具。我喜歡用的是共享、內容分析和熱點圖工具。我說了它是免費的嗎？我覺得免費版本就很好用。 16. Active Campaign 有了它的幫助，創作自動化和獲得新用戶和顧客變得前所未有地簡單。忘了復雜的Infusionsoft及其高昂的初始費用和月費吧。Active Campaign的收費要低得多。 17. Optimizepress 之前已經聽到了許多贊譽之詞，但最近我才開始用它。97美元的價格絕對物有所值。 18. Buzzsumo 很棒的工具，可以幫我發現別人在industry +里分享的熱門話題和帖子。 其他工具還有很多，以上這些則是2016年對我的業務和生活影響最大的工具。（財富中文網） 譯者：Charlie 審校：詹妮 |

And of course, it wouldn’t have been possible without the help of some tools that have provided great shortcuts. The tools shared in this post fall under three categories: Tools that helped me apply a simple productivity system. Tools that saved me time by paying less money. Tools that had an impact on my business growth. Are you ready? Let’s tackle these: Tools for my productivity system. There is a system that I’ve been following for more than a year now that has had a great impact on my business. It’s composed of three simple steps: Plan the right way. Start the day right. Take action with focus. 1. Google Docs Google Docs: A great tool I use to do all the planning for the tasks I want to accomplish. 2. Wunderlist Wunderlist: Helps me create to-do lists on the go and great for doing tomorrow’s to-do list. 3. Accomplish Accomplish: It helps me easily create my schedule for the day. This is my best calendar app that suits all my needs. 4. Clear focus Clear focus: Taking action with focus hasn’t been easier with the help of this great tool. 5. 7 Min Workout app 7 Min Workout app: Not only does this app have the normal seven minute exercise, but also it have many different variants with different durations 6. Headspace Headspace: A gem tool that changed my focus throughout the day. 7. Freedom Journal Freedom Journal: One of the best journals. I like their app which reminds me to write in the journal in the morning and at the evening. Tools that saved me time. Usually, these are resources where I pay a few dollars to save me time or resources where I could save a few minutes by grouping tasks together. 8. Upwork Upwork (formerly known as Odesk): This is not a tool but it is a great way to get low-value tasks done leaving me time to focus on higher value tasks. 9.99designs 99designs: I’m sure you know how time-consuming design work can be. When redesigning my logo, I spent a ton of time trying to communicate my vision to designers only to receive concepts I wasn’t happy with, which ate into other projects. Using 99designs, I was able to save a lot of time because of the great amount of designs I get. I pick the one I like, ask for reiterations till I like it and then pay. 10.Thrive content builder Having a great design that attracts the attention of new readers is very hard. I used to outsource this job, but with this tool, I don’t need to. 11.Auto Text Expander chrome expansion Great tool to share common sentences without typing them out completely. 12.Buffer extension ?Publish on all my social networks without entering them one by one. 13.Pocket Save important posts that come your way to read them on the weekends. Tools that helped my business grow. There are a few tools which help you increase your business growth without much work on your end. These are the tools that helped me do just that this year: 14.Thrive Leads This tools helped collect more emails from my website without spending time messing with the code. 15.SumoMe It provides you with a great set of tools. I like to use the share, content analytics and heatmap tools. Did I mention it’s free? I’m doing just fine with the free version. 16.Active Campaign Creating automation with ease to convert new subscribers and customers has never been easier. Forget infusionsoft with its complexity and the hefty price you pay initially and monthly. You pay a fraction of that with Active Campaign. 17.Optimizepress Started using it lately after all the buzz I heard. It deserves every penny of the $97 I paid for it. 18.Buzzsumo Great tool to help me identify popular topics and posts in my “industry +” who are sharing it. There are many tools out there but these are the ones that had the most impact on my business and my life so far in 2016. |
