Running a small business is much harder than running a corporation.
Surprising? Not if you're a small business entrepreneur.
As a fledgling business owner on a restricted budget you have to multi-task,
juggle, prioritize and balance. Unlike corporations, you don't have a
specialized professional team to help you manage, allowing you to focus on
more critical business strategies.
Neither do you have the capital to afford such luxuries. At best you have
about twenty employees that you need to train, supervise, motivate,
schedule and pay.
You're the sole manager, running your business on a shoe-string budget
with only 24 hours a day.
Given such stressful financial and time constraints, how can you successfully
maintain a balance between excellence, efficiency, and improving
productivity all on your own?
The answer? Think big.
Manage your business like the big corporations do. Corporations rely on
efficient organization that is cost-effective. Yes, even big companies have budget (granted big, but not unlimited) constraints that warrant
resourcefulness.
Today big businesses resort to business management software whenever
possible to replace business processes that were once done manually,
reducing costs of labor, time and human error.
Scheduling employees, for instance, used to be a tedious, time-consuming
task before automated scheduling software made rosters, schedules and
shift management a breeze.
Today, small businesses can not only easily be a more efficient organization
with the help of such software but can also obtain business software at no
cost. The business software market offers a variety of free trial software programs for evaluation before purchasing. The downside of those programs
is either a time limitation (meaning you might not get fully acquainted with
all features) or limited in features (meaning you can't test all the features).
If you like the program, you find out it carries a corporate price tag.
On the other hand, there are companies (few though they exist), such as
Kippax, that offer free fully functional business management software, with
no time/feature limitations.

businesses of all sizes with DRoster Employee Scheduling. DRoster creates,
