Since we at Savvy Marketers are all about simple easy online marketing activities, I thought it would be good to share some of my favourite time saving and automation tools – anything that will help ease the workload! So here are some of the ones that I like using:

1. Sugarsync – I’ve banged on about Sugarsync many times on this blog, but it really is one of the best tools I subscribe to. Not  only do I have peace of mind that my data is backed up, but when I work on my laptop, which I do quite a lot, I can access all of my folders through the Sugarsync file manager and use them as if I was working on my main desktop computer. All I need is a wireless internet connection!

2. Feedly – Feedly is now my RSS reader of choice (basically the way I subscribe to blog posts). I much prefer the interface to Google Reader and it’s interface (to me) is more like reading my favourite magazine. It’s very easy to categorise the blogs you subscribe so you can just look at blogs in certain categories rather than sort through all of them. Well worth taking a look at.

3. Evernote – I’ve been using Evernote for a few months now and it’s an easy way of bookmarking information that I come across on the web. I can tag pages I bookmark, save links or images, snippets of pages and even video notes using a webcam. Of course it’s free, so another one worth checking out.

4. Skype – has to be one of the best money saving ways to call business contacts, friends and family! If you don’t use it much then start using it as it’ll save you a bundle of money on phone calls!

There are loads of really useful tools out there and no doubt plenty I don’t know about! If you’ve any favourites that you’d like to add to this list, please let us know!
