Popular Business Apps, Software, and Services
We set up and connect the everyday apps a small business runs on — email, CRM, bookkeeping, scheduling, and internal communication — so they talk to each other instead of living in four separate logins. Most of it runs in the cloud, so there’s no expensive hardware or IT staff involved.
What We Handle
Having the tool and using it right are two different things. Most businesses use a fraction of what these platforms can actually do, and running them unconnected means re-entering the same customer information three or four times.
Tools we set up:
- Cloud-based email on your own domain (nerds@yourbusiness.com)
- Quo for customer calls and texts
- CRMs like HubSpot and Salesforce for tracking leads and customers
- QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping
- Jobber for scheduling and dispatch
- Calendly or similar for booking
- Slack or Notion for internal communication
A common stack we set up: domain email, Quo, HubSpot, and QuickBooks Online, wired together. A lead fills out a form on your site, gets created automatically in HubSpot, gets a contact in Quo so you can call and text, and once a transaction happens the customer and payment info lands in QuickBooks. All your communications, emails, texts, and call summaries sit in one thread instead of four apps.
This isn’t custom software built from scratch. It’s proven, popular tools already running in the cloud, wired together so they work as one.
Pricing
We don’t sell standard packages because every business’s needs are different. We also work with business owners based on their current financial situation to get them the help they need without worrying about how they’re going to pay for it. We’ll custom tailor a proposal based on your business, needs, and budget. Contact us now for a free consultation!
What Working Together Looks Like
- Show us what you’re working with. Before we recommend anything, we find out what you’re already using, what you like, what you don’t, and what your workflow looks like.
- The right stuff (baby). Based on how you actually run your business, we design a stack just for you, and design integrations and automations so you can work smarter, not harder.
- The hard stuff. Setting it up. Configuring accounts. Dialing in settings. Troubleshooting. All the boring stuff, done right.
- We’re automators. Your apps start talking to each other, and information moves on its own instead of you typing it or moving it by hand.
- We’re also educators. A system nobody knows how to use doesn’t help you. We walk you through it, and it’s all as easy as the apps you use for everyday life.
- Once you’re up and running, we’re always around if you break something, or it breaks you, or you just have questions.
What People Worry About
“I don’t want to learn a bunch of new software.”
Most of what we recommend is about as complicated as the apps already on your phone, and the automation cuts down your screen time, not adds to it.
“I already have QuickBooks or HubSpot, I don’t need this.”
Having the tool and using it to its full capability are two different things. Most businesses use a fraction of what these platforms can do, and connecting it to your other tools makes it more useful, not less necessary.
“What if something breaks?”
We built it, we support it. You reach out to us, not a call center that’s never seen your setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
What apps and software do you work with for small businesses?
It depends on what you need, but common ones include HubSpot or Salesforce for customer relationships, QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping, Jobber for scheduling and job management, Square or Toast for point-of-sale, domain email, and business phone and texting tools like Quo. If you’re using something else, we can probably work with it.
Do I need to replace what I'm already using?
Not necessarily. A lot of the time the fix isn’t new software, it’s getting what you already have set up right and talking to each other so you’re not the middle man.
How much does it cost to set up and connect my business apps?
It depends on how many tools you’re using, whether you’re starting from scratch or fixing an existing setup, and how much automation you want. We’ll give you a real number after a free consultation though.
Do I need to be tech savvy to use this stuff once it's set up?
No. Most of these tools are built to be simple, and our nerds walk you through everything and we provide free support.
