I agree with the timesaving techniques for business, but when it comes to personal life, why take the elevator to save time, then go to the gym after work for exercise when you can ake the stairs? You can save $80 (monthly gym membership, and mowing/gutter cleaning) by doing the work yourself and you get exercise! Just a thought. ~WillWorkForExercise

I found your article very refreshing. It's nice to finally read what I've been saying for a long time. As a sales rep for an ecommerce solution, I find it difficult understanding why customers aren't willing to "go the extra mile" to have their ecommerce solution directly connected to their accounting software. I will certainly use some of the arguments you've submitted next time I meet some potential customers. Great job Dominique Caron k-eCommerce.NET

Reading a great book right now that preaches automating and outsourcing. The 4 Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris. I'm in the process of launching another company and this time around I am searching for ways to keep things running smoothly without so much of me in the middle. Thanks for the tips.

Love this article! So true. I personally got my Virtual Assistant BEFORE I could afford it...she does my databases, shopping cart system, copywriting/editing-so I can make money doing what I love!

Funny you should mention this. One of my businesses has an inventory/customers, and I switched from 2Checkout to PayPal a couple of years ago and it was such a change to go from manually entering customer info into Quicken Home & Business to having everything done by PayPal. What a time saver! I'm now looking to move from PayPal to my own merchant account/shopping cart system, and have started researching ways that I can keep the "flow" going that I have with PayPal (the one positive there to a growing number of PayPal negatives). It looks like you have some information here on that, so I'm hoping my search just got easier - thanks. :-) Rich http://www.bizjama.com
