How Multi-Talented Women Are Reshaping The Tech Space

The tech industry is highly dynamic as well as competitive with a preconceived notion that it's not a woman's cup of tea. Moreover, there are studies which reveal that the tech space is still dominated by male professionals. According to Statista, the percentage of women working in tech companies is quite less in comparison to their male counterparts.
But if we do market research carefully there are small changes taking place with the help of a few talented women entrepreneurs outshining the tech space. Still, there is a lot of scope for providing females with equal opportunities in this industry but let's look at six female entrepreneurs who have become the talk of the town having built successful apps.
1. Edith Harbaugh: The Real Gem Of Engineering & Marketing
Edith Harbaugh is a female leader with a wealth of experience in engineering, marketing, and product development. She has built LaunchDarkly which is an organization as well as a solution for streamlining the entire product development lifecycle.
This feature management system is built to provide solutions to the issues which she faced in her previous companies. It's an intuitive platform for programmers with which easily control product development and launch. Also, Edith's brainchild has earned a few clients in the form of industry giants such as Microsoft and GoPro.
2. Sadaf Monajemi: The Queen Of Med-Tech Startups
The healthcare sector is quite complex where it's tough to come up with innovative ideas to integrate tech tools and build intelligent clinical solutions. But Sadaf Monajemi has built a med-tech startup named See-Mode Technologies. It's a system specifically to help medical practitioners to find patients who have a great risk of getting cardiac attacks without performing multiple tests and examinations.
Sadaf has earned a PhD degree majoring in AI and ML for clinical apps from the National University of Singapore. This qualification has given the technical expertise with which she can build intuitive medical products with strategic roadmapping and planning.
3. Shao-Ning Huang: The Mediator To Bridge The Gap Between Angel Investors & Asian Startups
Shao-Ning Huang has built AngelCentral which is an online community to link 500 angel investors with potential Asian startups which are in need of funds. She is the co-founder and chief angel for the platform.
She also serves as an adviser to tech startups and helps women entrepreneurs in growing their businesses. Shao-Ning Huang is a living example for inspiring women in the tech industry with her engaging journey where she played different roles such as a mother and entrepreneur successfully.

How to Use Instagram Live to Elevate Marketing Strategies

Live video streaming is the new social media trend - and it’s here to stay. From TikTok, YouTube Live, Facebook Live, and Instagram Live, influencers and brands are constantly taking advantage of live features across social media platforms. So, if you’re not utilizing it, you could be missing out on a huge opportunity to better brand your business and elevate marketing strategies. 
Today, we’re focusing on one of the leading platforms: Instagram. Throughout the pandemic, Instagram has upgraded its Live features to be more user friendly and help businesses add to their marketing strategies. It is still a feature that many are learning about compared to Instagram stories, but it is worth the investment. 

What You Should Know About Instagram Live
Instagram Live appears in the Stories section of your followers’ Instagram app - so you can avoid the dreading algorithm that typically makes your content invisible. One of the biggest advantages is that Lives appear first in each potential viewer’s Stories secti
on. It’s guaranteed access to the best real estate on Instagram.

Why Should You Use Instagram Live
If your target audience is on Instagram, then it makes tremendous marketing success for you to broadcast your messages to them on the platform. Not only will you be visible next to Stories, but your followers will get a notification of your Live if they have their notifications on for the app. This ensures that your audience will hear what you have to say. It’s not like Instagram feed posts or IGTVs in a sense that you can live stream for as long as you want and engage with viewers within seconds. 

New Features Coming To Instagram Live in 2020 that You Should Prepare for
Due to the pandemic, there has been a high demand for different types of features on Live, such as badges, fundraising, and live shopping to help businesses stay afloat (especially, small businesses).

5 Ways You Can Avoid Stagnant Productivity While Working Remote

It’s still a very uncertain time as the COVID-19 pandemic continues and numbers are constantly fluctuating. Many business owners are taking safe measures by pushing the returning to office date all the way into 2021. This means working remotely will continue to be a trend we see throughout the rest of the year. 
 By now, you’ve probably figured out how to work from home or remotely productively, but it may be time for some new strategies to avoid feeling bored or trapped. If you’re coming across the mental fight of how to spend free time and how much of that time should be for productivity, this blog came to you at the perfect time. If you’re reading this because you have become a part of the cycle of stagnant, even better.
Let’s dive into the 5 ways entrepreneurs can avoid stagnant productivity while working remotely. First off, it’s important to start by acknowledging what it is that is causing your productivity to become stagnant. Here are a few signs to determine whether or not you’re experiencing the cycle of stagnant:
  • You feel unmotivated and uninspired (even when you try hard to find inspiration/motivation)
  • You’re slowly starting to avoid responsibilities
  • You find yourself constantly procrastinating
  • You don’t feel like doing anything but mindless activities and distractions that bring easy pleasure
  • You have a gut feeling that you aren’t reaching your fullest potential
How to Avoid Stagnant Productivity:
1. Create a consistent schedule to stick to
2. Avoid doing household chores or having easy distractions during your scheduled work hours
3. Set up a comfortable remote office
4. Have a designated accountability partner
5. Know when to log off and check out

Keeping a balance of mindful and mindless work is imperative. You’re working remotely so you are in charge of knowing when it is time to wrap up and give your attention elsewhere. Read full blog...

Turn Your Fantasies into Realities (Goal Achieving)

Learn to take your deepest desires and make them a reality by understanding the art of goal achieving.  You'll gain an understanding of how to create goals that will take you to a whole new level.  If your goal doesn't scare you and excite you, you're going in the wrong direction. If you decide to leap into unfamiliar territory and go after something that you don't know how to do, you'll become unstoppable! Watch the gap close between you and your results as you access exponential growth both in your personal life and professional life.

If you're going after a goal that you already know how to do, you're going in the wrong direction.

A goal is to help you grow. Without a goal, people are lost and living life by default. It's important to understand about who you're becoming along the way.

6 Tech Skills You Need If You Want To Be An Entrepreneur

As you start in your business venture of becoming an entrepreneur there are key factors that you must have a basic understanding of in order to produce successful work. Of course, you can delegate certain tasks elsewhere to individuals with more experience in a certain skill, but there are some skills that you will need to develop. One of these skills is being tech-savvy. 

Being tech-savvy doesn’t mean understanding HTML coding or rocket science, it’s simply knowing what technology you will need to carry out your business and how to effectively use it to streamline internal/external processes. We’re diving into the five basic tech skills we suggest you develop to make the most out of your business.

  • Access Your Office Computer from Anywhere: With the advancement of technology comes a lot of perks as an entrepreneur. The biggest, and possibly most important factor is being able to work from anywhere. Gone are the days of having to be in-office to get work done. You can now run your business from laptops, tablets, and even mobile devices. However, it is still important to have access to all your information and work that is on your office desktop. 
  • Graphic Design and Image Editing: At some point, you may need to create or edit images for marketing purposes, whether it’s your website, social media, presentations, etc. Whatever the case may be, understanding the fundamentals of graphic design and knowing how to edit images are crucial skills to have in today’s market. 
  • Backup Your Information: We all know that dreadful feeling of working on a project for hours and then the computer crashing or links go missing, and all of a sudden you’re having to start from scratch. Don’t let this happen to you. Take preventative measures by backing up your work to the Cloud or an external hard drive (or maybe both). It’s important to know where your information lives and how to access it from anywhere.
