Episode Summary:
So, unlike the 10 previous episodes, I’m releasing a 3-part series showing you the behind the scenes of my freelance Apple training & consulting business.
This week, you’ll discover my Mac setup, the devices I use as well as the apps I rely the most upon for my day to day work.
Next week, I’ll talk about how I use my Apple mobile devices, including my Apple Watch, and how they integrate in my workflows.
Finally, in two weeks time, I’ll do a deep dive into the various online services that allow me to bridge the gap between my Macs and iOS devices and those that make my life easier through web automation.
And if you wonder why there are suddenly three solo shows, well … I’ve been on holiday for the past two weeks and I failed to line up enough guests to cover the second part of August ????.
So here you have it, and if you’d like to be a guest on the show or know an entrepreneur who would be a great guest on the show, visit macpreneur.com/contact
