Top 10 iOS apps for Virtual Business from @JimEJr

IM+ Instant Messenger

Awesome for chatting with co-workers and clients. Picked over others primarily due to a) stability, b) chat by voice with transcription, and c) provides popup notifications of incoming mail for multiple GMail and Google Apps accounts.

iThought.

I love mind mapping concepts, ideas, marketing strategies, even prospecting opportunities. Have recently begun looking at MindMeister. But, iThoughts has been my fav for awhile and the universal app allows for rapid note taking on any iOS device with syncing via Dropbox.

Dropbox

All of our companies files are in the cloud, but DB makes sure they are also on our hard drive. With or without connectivity, every team member has the files they need, yet we are safe from equipment failures.

reQall

There are a lot of to do apps, but none have all the simplistic, yet integrated functionality of ReQall. Only downer is still no iPad or Universal build, thereby requiring pixelated, portrait use on the iPad. But, best feature is being able to speak to-do items while fresh in mind no matter where…like driving, but no take eyes off road.

ScanBizCards Business Card Reader

There are a number of good business card scanners. But, of those I have tried, SBC is the cream of the crop with intelligent integration with LinkedIn, Calendar and other tools essential for business use.
