We all know that time is money, and if we’re honest, it’s rare to find someone with an abundance of both.
It often feels like a trade off between the two.
In business, it seems like any sort of tool that will help you streamline your business will cost you an arm and a leg (and the rest of your limbs for that matter).
Believe it or not, this doesn’t have to be the case.
There are actually some tools that will save you lots of time, and don’t cost as much as you might think. The problem is finding them.
Here are our top 5 business automation tools to take you to from 0 to 100:
1. Payhere - Automation tool for payments.
