Questions

I am looking to build a team of web design and I personaly would like to focus on sales and managing the business more than geting involved in all daily tasks (which I do now). I want to grow and have more familly time rather than do all myself.

Running a web design firm is like running a tight ship. There are processes in place that you have to strictly follow to ensure that you grow. Every single day can be an uphill battle, what with all the leads, sales, and marketing that you have to do, and all other things that need your time and attention. Luckily, there are tools out in the market that can help lighten your burden a little bit.

Here are a list of tools that can help you with your web design business:

Internal communication is an important aspect of a team. A crystal clear communication helps you move forward and attain your goals together. Slack is a reliable tool for your team's internal communication.

Productized Web Design Business Vault for finding high volumes of potential audiences in a given niche. If you are looking to get some traction and more contact, this tool is a good to use.
