Maintaining a work-life balance can be a daunting task for entrepreneurs. But cloud tools – ranging from online storage to payment systems and web-based conferencing services – offer a flexible way of running your business on the move at any time. Whether you have an urgent call to catch in the middle of a beach holiday or problems that need an instant solution, cloud-based technology comes in handy in most unforeseen situations.
“As you have access to data, numbers and cash flow anytime you need it, cloud technology makes sense for the entrepreneur who has to be in a million places at once,” says Alex So, group managing partner of FastLane Group, which provides corporate services to entrepreneurs.
Bay McLaughlin, who co-founded accelerator Brinc.io, adds that cloud tools allow people to work how they want, whenever they want. “Work for entrepreneurs is a non-stop thing, so any tool that helps you work on mobile or in real-time and allows you to connect to the likes of accountants and book-keepers is welcome and valuable. Your time is the most important thing you have,” says McLaughlin.
