Time-saving productivity tips: Part 3

Time-saving productivity tips: Part 3

In our previous post, we discussed ways to boost your productivity with Zoho Writer. We're excited to introduce three more features that can help you save hours of work and get more done.

Read aloud:

Introducing the Read Aloud feature in Zoho Writer! Listen to your documents as they're read out loud, so you can proofread your content, focus on other tasks, or simply enjoy the sound of your own words. You can also control the reading using the buttons in the Read Aloud bar. Here's a detailed guide on how Zoho Writer's Read Aloud feature works.

C

Combine Revisions:

If you collaborate with someone who doesn't use Zoho Writer, you can still incorporate their changes into your original document using the Combine Revisions feature. The Combine Revisions feature works with DOC and DOCX files, and will merge two documents to create a new one that contains all the changes from both. You can also choose to add the changes to your current document. Once documents are combined, all edits and changes will be highlighted and marked up, so you can delete or accept them as needed.


Review and approval workflow:

Automate the review and approval process for your documents by setting up a workflow. This will save you time and ensure your documents are reviewed and approved efficiently. You can access a complete audit trail of the review process, which can be helpful for tracking changes and resolving issues. Use Zoho Writer's Workflow to save time, improve accuracy, and increase transparency— all for free.

Happy Writing!

                                            Last week we talked about how Fillable Fields can help you create contracts and proposal templates you can repurpose across your processes. This week, we'll talk in detail about how to collaboratively fill those templates with your clients and team.    Say you've entered into a contract with multiple clients but the final contract amount is still under negotiation.
