I never thought much the business tools I would need to use or even learn when I first began blogging. Now all these years later I am a freelancer which has its own set of tools, but I am also the go-to geek chick for my brother’s company. By the go-to geek chick I mean…

The Right App
For those of you who don’t know I have multiple jobs. Since I work from home I am able to do a couple of things. My job with my brother I sort of got roped into. Meaning he said “Here so this work” and I said “Okay.” I is a lot of fun truthfully but I would never tell him that. The one thing we seem to have issues with was inventory control. Well that and communications. We needed an app that would allow everyone in the company to use it plus be multi-functional.

Picmonkey Free Alternative – Fotor
How many of you enjoy editing your photos or making collages and such? I bet many of you have used or at least heard of PicMonkey. I have used them for a while off and on. However I recently discovered that they are no longer free. Wait, what? That’s right they are not free. But they have a free user account. They do and you can use the tools but don’t try to save, export, or share your work. Well that just blows completely doesn’t it? IT does if you are like me and actually didn’t know this until you tried to use it. I tend to stick with my same editing tools but occasionally I like to use a different. Typically because it has a feature that I want for a particular shot. I learned my lesson though. I use Fotor any time I want to use a free program that allows me to do the basics.
