Small business skills that make a big difference.
You don’t know your Google Docs from your Google Drive, and pie and bar charts are about as technical as you want to get. Technology may not come naturally to you, or you may simply not have had the time to learn it.
Here you’ll find clear instructions, simple explanations and practical resources to help you get things done without feeling overwhelmed.
You’re happy using tools such as Excel, databases and customer relationship management systems, but may not know everything they can do. You want to work more efficiently, improve your understanding and discover better ways to use the systems you already have.
You’ll find practical guides, examples from real business tasks and templates you can adapt for your own work.
You already have strong business and digital skills and are ready to explore more specialist subjects. You may be interested in data analysis, website development, WordPress, automation or improving the systems that support your business.
You’ll find more detailed guides, examples of how I’ve approached different projects and ideas to help you build on what you already know.
