Best Practices for Organizing Business Files
Tired of digging through an endless sea of folders and files to find that one document you need? You’re not alone. Your employees are right there with you.
Employees spend about 19% of their workweek searching for information. That’s a big chunk of time, and as we all know, time is money.

For Bigger Tips, Learn to Read Your Tables
