Common Excuse
Top Excuses (Heard Everywhere)
“We’re too busy.” → Try a 30-minute mini-fix, not a big project.
“We’re too small.” → Start with one phone or one form.
“Too complicated.” → You click. It runs. That’s the point.
“Don’t trust it.” → Test for a week. Keep it only if it helps.
“No time to learn.” → Set it up once; it saves time every day.
