Apps

{For Business Productivity}

Pocket CV
Named the best new app for business by Apple in April, the
Pocket CV allows you to create, maintain, and share your

resume straight from your iPhone or iPad device. After just a few
minutes of setup time, the app features three different layouts to

choose from with multiple typesets under each. You can create
a new CV or connect from your LinkedIn proile, upload it to

Dropbox, or send directly to prospective employers using email
on your iOS device.
[$1.99 / apple.com]

Slip
Every time you attend a Chamber function, you leave with a
pocketful of business cards. Instead of adding to the overlow-

ing box of them in your ofice, use Slip at the next networking
luncheon to exchange contact information. The app automati-

cally enters phone numbers and email addresses into your list
of contacts in your phone and the software geo-tags contacts

to keep track of where and when you met. Slip allows you
to quickly organize and share contact information with your

personal network, making that pocketful of business cards a
counter-productive mess of the past.

Tact
What good is a conversation if you don’t
remember what was said? Forgetting

names or the circumstances around
meeting business contacts can mean

the difference between closing a deal or
having it die on the vine, plus its just rude.

Tact is a way to capture notes on emails,
phone calls, and meetings so no details,

instructions, or considerations from
those important discussions are ever

overlooked. The app also allows you to
set follow-up tasks and share notes with
colleagues, which will help to improve

customer relations and also your own
productivity at the same time.
