The media is always trying to get us to shell out our hard earned dollars to buy the latest gadgets and software, but sometimes it's the simplest, most inexpensive ideas that are the most effective.
Tara Kachaturoff over at Coachamatic has a great low-tech suggestion for increasing efficiency. Read her post to see how she uses a kitchen timer as an efficiency tool.
I have been using an alarm clock for sort of the same purpose, but I think a kitchen timer would be an easier tool to use. Plus it's already geared towards working in 60 minute increments, and it's cheap, portable and doesn't need batteries or electricity to function.
Simplicity is a beautiful thing! If you have any low-tech efficiency tools that you use in your biz, I'd love to hear about them.
