Email: a necessity for small businesses

The role of email in business is highly significant. Email providers such as Google, Microsoft etc. have scaled-up the utility factor associated emails. Email as the name suggests is the electronic version of mails used for communication purpose only. But with technological involvement, the utility factor of emails were scaled up and now emails can be used as a simple tool for managing personal productivity. 

Productivity tools are essential for managing time. For people with a busy schedule, prioritization of the activities itself is an important job. Prioritization helps in attending to each task simple with minimum distraction in a timely manner. Once the task is prioritized and timelines decided, tools are required to assist with the tasks tracking and completion.

The rise of productivity apps in the market suggests the ever growing demand for a solution which emails have been comfortably supporting for quite some time. But some of these apps include email integration for better productivity planning.

Small businesses have effectively optimized the use of emails to manage the overall productivity of the firm. But there are limitation of email which make it obsolete for managing a mid size team.
