Organizing With a Computer

"Hello. My name's Melissa Schenk and on behalf of Expert Village, today we're going to talk about how to organize your business documents. In our final clip today let's talk about how to organize your business documents digitally. By that I mean your computer. We've been talking so far about organizing your business documents on your desk, in your filing cabinet, on shelves, in different kinds of cabinetry. That's all for paper documents. We are living in a paperless world though. As much as we do tend to still use a lot of paper and we need to write things down. Most of us, a lot of us work off of our laptops or our computers or some form of a computer. And we live in a very digital world. Really good thing to think about especially if space is a restriction for you is to digitally archive your business documents. You can organize them by file folders on your computer. It's almost like having a filing cabinet within your computer with all of the folders and different subject headings that you can make for yourself. Something great to think about now, new on the market, well not so new perhaps anymore, but is a data traveler. A portable hard drive that you can take with you. And so, you can take your documents with you wherever you go and their organized when you need them and where you need them."
