Unit of 1 - Breakfast Club: Getting More Value From Technology
Date: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 @ 10:25 AM EDT
Topic: Events
Think because you are Unit of 1 that you are too small to improve your use
of technology? Think again! Effective use of technology is one of those
things that can help small and tiny firms get a jump up on those bigger
dinosaur firms. Often big companies can't utilize new technologies because
it takes to long to implement the newest and the cheapest - and the layers
of decisionmaking hold them back. As a Unit of 1, on the other hand, you
can jump on the bandwagon in seconds and take advantage of neat-o new
things with no investment except your time. Here are some of the things
we will discuss how to do --- for little or no money --- with existing
technology
When:
