In this episode of More With Moreira, Desmond explains the importance of software and technology within your business and how it can help your business grow to the next level. He also discusses what software and platforms that he uses within his business and why he uses them.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you’re a business in 2019 who manages clients and lots of different tasks, you are a technology/IT business.
• Software can give you better, more up to date information. It can also reduce costs and be more reliable.
• Often if you don’t use software it’s hard to show someone how to do something especially when the task has multiple layers.
• Software can help to integrate someone into your business rather than taking a person away from your business to teach a new employee how to do certain tasks.
• There are tonnes of different software that you can use within your business, the best software for you depends on what your business is.
• We use Google and Zendesk within our business where we all work from home. If you don’t have software to keep you organised, then it’s likely you’re not going to do well.
• Certain software’s that could be new to you could make a huge difference to your business and drive you to the next stage of your business.

BEST MOMENTS

• ‘Don’t resist software especially when starting up’
• ‘Software is your friend’
• ‘Software is never going away’
• ‘You have to take a massive interest in IT and technology and keep up to date with new platforms’
• ‘You need to pay attention to technology regardless of whether you like it’

ABOUT THE HOST

I don’t know how this works, but you’re here now listening (hopefully) about my exciting life, so I’m going to try and make this worth your while. I never got inspired at school, I was too busy trying to impress my peers, chasing girls, and being a fool to get inspired. I rejected school. But let me tell you something for free! That was a mistake! I spent the next 15 years in jobs I hated, with no direction, lacked purpose, and motivation for life. Yes, big words, but that was me in a box. A slave to the system! Fast forward to today, and well, I’m not sitting in my ivory tower or anything, but I love life and my career. Yeah, it’s both painful and exciting rolled and wrapped up into one giant subway, and who doesn’t love subway rite? The point is, you only get one life, don’t waste it pursuing things you care nothing for, invest in YOURSELF and grow as a person, be the best YOU by putting YOU first!
