Next meeting is on November 4th at 6pm in the The Ramada Lough Allen Hotel, Drumshanbo.
Keynote Speaker: Fergus Burns from nooked.com.
16 companies attended our October meeting and welcome to our new members.
Enda Madden gave an informed presentation on Zoho.com. Zoho has an extensive suite of web-based products for business and a huge attraction is 80% of these products are FREE. Enda showed us Zoho Business which comes with all the tools you would expect from Microsoft Office and more, however Zoho Business is FREE (for up to 10 users in most cases).
Enda also showed us Zoho CRM which can provide your business with an extensive customer relationship management tool, covering prospects, leads, sales and most importantly detailed reports and analyis and it’s FREE for up to 3 users.
Other cost saving ideas were discussed. Paul Fahy (exploreleitrim.ie – coming soon) highlighted how he has cut his mobile bills with 3 Mobile so they should be worth a call.
Brian Dolan brought attention to lowering car fuel consumption with Dipetane.
Do you have any cost saving ideas? If so, please leave them in the comments section below.
