I'm sure you've noticed - even before we are done with Halloween (and positively we can't get straight through Thanksgiving anymore) before we're bombarded with ad after ad announcing the forthcoming holidays.
This year, take advice from an assistant who's been there and done that. Here's 5 items any assistant will Love!
Dymo Printer
1. Dymo label printer Sounds like such a silly thing, doesn't it? Why is a label printer any dissimilar than the regular printer? Think about it - the paper is sticky on one side which can cause jamming and even damage to a regular printer; the formatting can be difficult and the labels expensive. Suffice it to say, labels printed straight through a regular printer can be a positively tricky thing. Enter the Dymo - a small printer just for labels that plugs in via Usb and can be accessed from most popular software with the click of the mouse.
2. CardScan - tiny, like the Dymo, but rather than getting the data out positively - you get it in. The CardScan is highly productive at getting all those company cards laying around into a feel database Fast. A specific cure for the holiday mailing list frenzy/angst felt by most company this time of year!
3. A scanner/all-in-one with a sheet feeder that holds at least 20 pages. If it can scan duplicate sided and has a flat bed - all the better. As with any printer, toner is more high-priced to buy, but lasts much longer than ink. Expect to pay about 0 for a solid machine and make sure it is whether Twain or comes bundled with Adobe expert at no additional cost. You can keep an eye out for deals at places like Tiger Direct and MicroCenter and even some major chain market are known to throw out a good agreement once in a while. This past weekend, Office Max sold the Brother Mfc 7420 for only . So if 0 sound like a large number, shop for deals, and remember you're removing the copier, printer and fax with all their connected cartridges, toners and maintenance, while at the same time getting items such as mail, file copies and receipts scanned and digital.
4. The right tech so s/he can work from home 1 or 2 days per week (and so could you)! Truly, wouldn't you both at least like the option?! For less than .00 per month you can collaberate securely in your own secret webspace thanks to services such as 37Signal's BackPackIt. A free choice is to exchange the files straight through gain web based services such as SendThiFile. Other web based tech allows you to work from any phone, and your assistant from any computer connected to the internet.
5. Up to date equipment/software/ training. If the computer your assistant is working on is older than 3 years or uses software more than two versions behind the most current, it is time to upgrade. You don't want to wait for the machine or software to crash before you do.
Plan a January 1st start date for intriguing forward on updated tool and software. This gives you enough time to explore and purchase what you need, as well as get everyone involved trained before year's end. These days, software is not intuitive. This makes training a must if you want to feel a seamless transition.
