1. Linkedin

Launched in 2003, LinkedIn is one of the most used business-oriented social networking services. With over 400 million acquired users as of October 2015, it caters to those in the business community that desire the vast networking power of social media while still giving people the chance to promote and grow their business. It has a more professional feel in that it is centred on careers and enables users to connect and share knowledge with other professionals as well as getting contacts of potential employees and employers. Entrepreneurs with a business on LinkedIn are better off since they can use it as a marketing tool, get orders and also get a lot of valuable information that will help their investments thrive.

Many people still don’t understand how to use it, but once you do, there are many aspects of LinkedIn to capitalize on to make it a beneficial tool for your business.

CamCard is an app that enables you to scan your business card(s) using your phone camera and uploads it directly to your cloud, where it can be accessed from any device. You can also add notes to cards and tag contacts to locate them more easily in searches.

6. Instapaper/Pocket

How often have you come across a blog post or article that you want to read but simply don’t have the time?
