If you’re a digital marketer, then you’ll want to download these six productivity apps to make your life a whole lot easier.

Smartphones can be a lot of fun, but they can also make our day-to-day life a lot easier when we use them for business. As digital marketers, we all know that the job is far from over when we leave the office. Depending on what’s happening, it might just be beginning. These six productivity apps are amongst the best on the App Store or Google Play, and will make the life of a digital marketer much easier.

Chrome Remote Desktop

One thing that Google has done (and they’ve done it very well) is integrate all of their platforms for seamless use. So while you might not ‘use’ Google+ every day, if you’re logged into a Google profile, you’re active on Google+. And if you’re using Chrome, you can take your office with you everywhere.

Chrome Remote Desktop is an excellent platform for accessing your desktop when you’re out of the office. Regardless of your hardware – be it a Mac or a PC – all you need to use the app is a Chrome browser installed and linked to your device. Unfortunately for iPhone users, the Chrome Remote Desktop is only available on Android devices (phones and tablets).

Sociidot

Setting goals is a crucial part of our daily routines. We have small tasks that we want to accomplish, and checking them off of a list makes us feel like we have had a productive day. But there are not too many productivity apps out there that create goals in the way that Sociidot does.

In this app, the focus is much more on the bigger picture and tasks that need to be accomplished in order to achieve those longer-term goals. Create a Story and assign due dates to each of your tasks (or, Dots) and watch as you come closer to reaching major milestones and achieving business relevant goals.

EasilyDo

Don’t you wish you had your own version of ‘Jarvis’ like Iron Man? With EasilyDo, you’re not too far off. EasilyDo is described as ‘Your Virtual Personal Assistant’ and it really does to all the things you need done for you, saving you time and helping you organize your day a little more efficiently.

If you’re traveling on your best friend’s birthday and are expecting a package delivery and need everything taken care of, EasilyDo does it. It tracks things like birthdays, organizes contacts, checks local traffic and weather and, yes, tracks your packages so you can get everything done as it needs to be done without skipping a beat.

CamScanner

You need to get a copy of a client’s artwork to your creative department and you’re sitting in a client’s conference room with no scanner, computer or corporate email in sight. Enter CamScanner to save the day.

Not only can you take a picture and send it as a PDF, but you can crop, enhance and modify the picture taken in order to ensure that you are sending the highest quality version of this image to whomever you need to send it to.

Zamurai

If you’re working with a team on a project and you’re not always together, it can make completing tasks tough. That is especially true if you’re not using Drive or some other cloud-based collaboration tool. Zamurai takes the whiteboard out of the office and puts it onto your smartphone.

The app is designed to allow for brainstorming-like collaboration using a whiteboard template. You can also take notes on a presentation as a group and share ideas and changes to a project in real time. In this way, no matter where your team is, there is never a moment lost while working towards an objective.

Google Now

OK, granted, this isn’t just to make a marketer’s life easier, but it needs to make the list. It can sometimes seem scary how tuned in our devices are to everything we are doing; this is particularly true with Google Now, but in the best of ways.

Similar to EasilyDo, Google Now is a virtual assistant of sorts, but with a unique ability to intelligently analyze circumstances and provide you with necessary information without you ever having to ask for it. Google Now also works with your multiple Google devices, so if you are a Google loyalist, it becomes even more in tune with your patterns and habits.

Conclusion

Our smartphones are called that for a reason. If we really use them to their fullest extent, our lives as marketers will become a whole lot easier. So take advantage of the productivity section of the App Store or Google Play and see how much more you can get done!
