Economize on Battery Juice

If you’re an iPhone enthusiast battling the low battery blues, when you’re down to 20 percent, switch your settings to Low Power Mode — it stops all background apps from refreshing. (Just remember to switch it back later, so apps stay up-to-date.)

Paper is So Yesterday

Your sales team may still be using physical paper for orders, contracts, and other things that require a signature – but why? Storage boxes and filing cabinets fill up a ton of floor space better used for other purposes. Scan those old physical copies, move to a digital signing process, and get rid of paper for good. Not only does it take up space, it’s a waste of time when you need to find (and then refile) paper.
