I hope you had a great weekend. We’re going to talk about recommendations over the next few days for those people who need suggestions on things like hardware and software. These are our go-to solutions, but don’t go changing up what you have already if it’s working. Some people want a suggestion for something that won’t let them down and will get the job done – that’s what these are about. Switching computers or practice management systems, or task-list software feels like progress because it keeps us busy, but it’s never the obstacle that’s actually holding us back.
Today’s message is up in your podcast feed and it’s all about the basic hardware you need to be up and running. It’s a strikingly short list – there aren’t that many devices required these days, and it means you have a great deal of flexibility in where and how you work.
