Google didn’t want to let its flagship enterprise tool be relegated to use by large corporations and multi-member workgroups. That is why a little over a year ago, they launched Google Individual Workspace to offer freelancer entrepreneurs a comprehensive solution to run their businesses.
Until now, this subscription modality was only available in the US, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Japan and Australia. But we have good news for you as Google Workspace Individual is now available in Europe, specifically in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom and Switzerland.
Today we tell you everything you need to know to use this powerful tool in your eCommerce business and optimize your workflow to the maximum in an “all in one” environment.
