9 Tools That Startups Should Know About Right Now

If you are running a startup, you know that one of the major concerns is cash flow. The second must be hiring and managing a quality team.

Needless to say, regular cash flows allow your business to have all due expenses covered and if the flows are enough, they allow your startup to literally sit on cash and invest it back in the company. Investments will bring more cash flows and consequently further growth.

The second usual major concern of a startup, hiring and managing a quality team, is fundamental to the consolidation of the company’s structure. Just like markets and the economy in general are based primarily on people, so are businesses. A quality team is crucial to the company’s development and growth.
The team will be the ultimate startup identity presented to customers in every kind of interaction.

However, sometimes cash flows run a little low and are not enough for big investments. That may be because of the economy or because a product was not so well received in the market, or for some other reason.
And that may affect the hiring capacity of the startup as well as other fronts. Good people are often expensive and a dream team would be full of them, but that’s not always a possibility.

So here is a list of 9 tools that will help you save money and time while growing your startup, without having to hire a large team:

Ecwid – ecommerce booster

If you have an online store you are already ahead of all your competitors that don’t. The online world is full of selling opportunities and you already take part on it.

It has many interesting features that it adds to your online store, such as integrated inventory management (online and offline), language adaptations (adapts the storefront to the users language – more than 40 available) and the most mind boggling of all: it calculates shipping fees based on your customer’s IP address.
