The $100 Challenge – What Productivity Tools Would We Buy With Only $100? (TPS339)

Listen Later

Imagine for a moment that you only have $100 in your budget to spend on productivity tools. What would you spend it on?

We asked ourselves that question and came up with a list of gear and tools that we would buy on a limited budget of just $100.

Every dollar counts so we made sure that every recommendation would pull its weight and help you become more productive.

We want to show you that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to be more productive.
