Hubspot Sales

Hubspot Sales is an email plugin by the marketing automation company Hubspot.


Track when and how often your emails have been opened. Schedule emails for deferred delivery.


It's compatible with GMail, Outlook, & other web tools.

Asana.com

Asana.com is the simplest and most convenient way to manage and coordinate group activities.

 

Rather than creating a structure you must learn to use, Asana is free form, allowing you to manage tasks and projects the way your business works, not the way Asana does.

Workflowy.com

Workflowy.com is, in our opinion, the best online outlining tool available.

 

Free-form list building, to task management to outlining an entire book, Workflowy can do it all.

 

And with apps for Android and iPhone, use it anywhere, any time. 

Outlook.com

Outlook.com is the new Hotmail.com - but so much more.

 

Every free Outlook.com account gives you an email address plus Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint online.

 

And 15 GB of OneDrive cloud storage for the files you create. 

Mint.com

Business is about the money we make and spend. How we manage it, and what we do with it.

 

Mint.com lets you see all the activity in all your accounts, incoming and outgoing, visually sorted and categorized so you can make sense of the cash flow, and not just the numbers.

Why Hubspot Sales?

  • Email is the primary form of business communication
  • Customer service will be the distinguishing factor in the modern economy
  • Timely replies to emails increases customer satisfaction, shortens sales cycles and reduces fulfillment time, all of which provide tangible business advantages

Compose emails as normal - the Hubspot button handles everything
