Get your business organized for less
Q: What are some cost–efficient ways for businesses to get organized, especially during these difficult economic times?
A: Here are my top–5 favorite ways:
1. Use email, read reports and manuals on the screen in PDF format, and don’t print unnecessarily. Doing so will reduce your company’s paper consumption — which will result in less paper needing to be purchased.
2. Before purchasing something new, be sure you don’t already have something in your office that can do the trick.
3. Confirm business appointments BEFORE you leave the office. You’ll reduce wasted time and wasted fuel.
4. Don’t disregard inexpensive storage options such as simple shelves. Whether you get wood, steel or wire shelving, shelving will help you make excellent use of all the wall space that typically goes to waste.
5. Need more filing space, but can’t afford filing cabinets? Cardboard file storage boxes and banker’s boxes are awesome for paperwork that can be archived, especially since they stack so beautifully!
