When the Answer is Software and Not More Service

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

Listen to the Episode Below:

When it comes to scaling, service businesses get stuck in the time for dollars equation. How can we increase our income without magically creating more time? We can always find ways to cut costs, spend less, work faster, or delegate to other people. How can technology solve this problem? What if technology could create a real solution that is a pain killer and not just a vitamin?

Today’s podcast is about creating a technology solution to accompany your service solutions. I’m delighted to have technical strategist and Internet expert Nelly Yusupova here to talk about leveraging technology to scale your business and earn more while still having room to breathe. BB051_Nelly Yusupova_headshot

While thought of even attempting to create a software solution could overwhelm most non-technical people, Nelly is brilliant about sharing technical information and making it understandable.
