4 Best Apps to Help Your Business Run Smoothly



Is your business still collecting most of its payments via cash? Or perhaps your employees are scattering your marketing materials around the office. 

Let's face it: it's impossible to manage your entire business without any hiccups or organizational issues. That's why these four apps are helping business owners streamline operations and make managing an office more enjoyable.

Consider trying these four apps to help your business run more efficiently.

1. Cash App

Cash App is an excellent mobile payments app for businesses. When you create an account, you can use a Cash App referral code to get extra money upfront. 

Keep in mind that when you first create your account, it will be a "personal" one by default. But it's easy to make the switch — you can go into your "Settings" and change the account type to business.

Once you change your account, you can receive money for a small fee — just 2.75% per transaction. It's free to send money to your business bank account as long as you choose the standard delivery method. You can also choose to access your funds more immediately by paying a 1.5% fee.



And the best part? Cash App for Businesses can process payments from most major debit and credit cards, making it easy for customers to pay however they prefer.

2. Hubspot Marketing Hub

Unfortunately, not nearly enough businesses spend money on advertising. There are many reasons for this, but the main problem is that most business owners perceive marketing as less important than operations. 

If your business doesn't implement any marketing strategies because you don't have time, consider getting Hubspot Marketing Hub. This platform provides various tools for social media advertising, sales and marketing, and content management. Most notably, it provides options for content hosting so that you can assemble all your website content in one neat place. 

We also love this tool's split testing capabilities. You can test multiple versions of your web pages to learn which ones your audience will respond well to. 

And better yet — Hubspot Marketing Hub has advanced analytics software you can use to collect and interpret data. This way, you can make an informed decision on which web pages will deliver the highest ROI.

If you don't want to pay for your marketing tools upfront, you can use the free version of Hubspot Marketing Hub! The features are somewhat limited, but the free version is a great way to learn if this tool is something that you'd like to invest more money in.

3. IDrive (News - Alert)

Are you looking for a place to store project instructions, outlines, photos, or any other media? Consider getting IDrive for reliable cloud storage. IDrive provides continuous syncing of your files so that you always have access to the most updated versions. But rest assured if you have to revisit an older version — you can retrieve up to 30 previous versions if needed.

You can use IDrive to share files via Twitter (News - Alert), Facebook, or email, meaning you can communicate with co-workers and customers more easily. One of our favorite features of this platform is the facial recognition ability for photos. You can use this feature to organize all your pictures and sync them across any devices you use.

The business version of IDrive grants you:

  • Priority support
  • Unrestricted server backup
  • Unlimited users

4. Avast Business Antivirus Pro

Cybercrime is no joke — it cost businesses nearly $3 billion in 2020. But Avast Business Antivirus Pro is a convenient app that improves your company's security. It comes with multiple tools, including email protection and a firewall. You can even enable the app's ability to sandbox applications for more enhanced security.

Take Advantage of These Apps Today

Don't make things harder on your company and its employees - invest in these four apps to increase productivity. If you're hesitant, try out the free versions first to learn if the apps are right for your business. However, we have a feeling you're going to be hooked.
