Don’t Know Technology?

April 24, 2007

This is a common excuse I hear when I am out speaking about buzz and technology.

Clearly, if you want to be technical, you can get server space and install and configure open source software and save a few bucks.  Or you can usually pay a few dollars a month and have it set up and hosted for you.

There is little reason to mess around with blog software, CMS software, CRM software, business plan software, billing or accounting software, or just about anything else you can want. 

Companies are all over the place hosting and customizing these tools at such low rates, that even if you can do it yourself, it rarely makes sense to spend the time.

The key for you is that you can use all of these tools to create buzz or manage your business, and you cannot use the excuse that you do not know techology anymore.  Stuff has gotten too easy and too cheap to not use.  And your ability to be visible and be efficient depends on your ability to use these tools.

    I agree completly. I’m pretty much a complete technophobe, but I manage to run several web based business’s. Things have gotten so easy to implement, it’s really not an excuse any longer.

    Several tools that I’ve found helpful in automating my daily tasks can be found over at http://www.jamesbrausch.com. he’s got some great software that’s made my life a heck of a lot easier over the last couple of months.

Got something to say?
