I had client meetings with others in Pasadena, Philly, Seattle, West LA, and Florida this week. All without driving anywhere past my nearest EZ Lube, Starbucks, or Coffee Shop.
You are feeling the pain of this economy and so am I. Even $50 a month saved can make a significant difference if used effectively.
I am in the business of helping make others successful so here is what I do to remain competitive as a small business owner and entrepreneur. I coach, train, and support others as they walk down this journey toward competitive advantage with technology.
Vons, EZ Lube, Hospitals, & Apple Stores: Unexpected Resources
Once you commit to mobilize your office, remaining connected on the go becomes a much higher priority. It used to be that this lifestyle required a cellular card for your computer that could run up to $100 or more per month.
Not so today where you can actually reduce costs by getting out of the office.

Working In The Cloud
The Internet is quickly becoming the new railway of business. Many business activities rely heavily on it and this is just reality. Resisting it is like resisting the use of credit cards. You can do it but it will cost you much more than its worth. For example, I won’t even shop in a store that doesn’t accept Visa or Mastercard. (more…)

Local Public Libraries
Long the domain of the academics, Public Libraries offer a tremendous opportunity for small businesses looking to improve their tech savvy and efficacy. My local library provides quite a few business savvy amenities thanks to taxpayers like myself:

In fact, 98.9% of Public Libraries have Internet Access which is becoming the new railway of commerce. This opens up the use of web phone, collaboration, and communication services within the private and quite rooms. I have even recorded Podcasts in these rooms with great success. (more…)

AT&T Wifi @ Starbucks
Most Starbucks offer wifi. This service used to cost $40 and more per month via T-Mobile which made it a luxury for only the most mobile professionals. Since switching to AT&T, the tables have turned so you can use this service FOR FREE! Just buy something once every 30 days with a registered Starbucks card and you get at least 2 hours free wifi every day – even the days you don’t buy anything! (more…)
