[COMPANY] [TEAM] Tech Tools
After you Audit: Next Step Suggestions
- Do nothing = amazing, your tech is working for you
- Downgrade or clean = downgrading is fairly quick, cleaning up is not. Set aside some time in your calendar, or nominate a teammate to help you clean up inactive users.
- Explore Upgrade = within the tech “page” above, copy and paste the upgrade plan details including the extra cost and the extra features you’d get. Then make a call on if it’s worth it!
- Seek Alternative = you want to set aside some time to compare to similar tools to see if there’s a better fit. If this is overwhelming to you, consult someone (like me!) to help.
- Review Further = this tag means you likely need to ask around to your team to see who’s using it, not using, how they’re using it.
- Training Plan = you or your team could use some upskilling to use this tool to it’s fullest potential. You can do this on your own, seeking out resources & online training from the tool itself (i.e. Hubspot Academy), or you can reach out to a service (like mine) to make a custom training plan for you.
