Grants\/Funds<\/h2>\n

While there are a plethora of services and training available to businesses, sometimes you just need cold, hard cash to get you through the tough times. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve also included grants and credits on this list as well. <\/p>\n

Be smart with free stuff<\/h2>\n

There are many businesses offering free services and products, but don\u2019t snap up every offer just because you can. You still need to learn all of these new apps, find a way to incorporate them into your work process, and then train the rest of the team. That doesn\u2019t even count the cost increase that may apply at the end of the benefit period. <\/p>\n

Carefully consider your needs before registering for any paid service or grant. Develop a realistic plan of what you can do to get through the current crisis and carefully select the apps that will help you. Look forward to the future for when businesses are opening back up, and whether or not you can afford to keep the app once the free or discounted service ends. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s great to know that companies are stepping up to help fellow businesses however they can during this difficult time, and doing so in ways that encourage others to pay it forward. <\/p>\n
