There are so many business apps and productivity tools for independent business owners these days. They range from business messaging and marketing apps to shopping and scheduling to payment and accounting apps to taxes and document signature/storage/management apps. How do you select the business apps that are right for you? We discuss:

- Where to go to research business apps
- Whether you should look for multiple apps or an all-in-one app
- If businesses should be skeptical of free apps
- Feedback for businesses that have opted out of using any technology to run their business
