The Best Subscription companies for productivity
Audible
Audible is a handy time saving app which makes getting through your favourite books more convenient. The obvious key difference of using Audible compared reading is the ability to listen and any point of the day. Furthermore, being able to fast forward the speed of the narration to 1.5x to super charge the content consumption. For someone who is slow at reading in the first place, this app has given me the chance to read books rapidly. The other bonus is the monthly free token you get along with the membership which if you don’t use it, it rolls on into the next month. To purchase extra books in the month, the tokens to do so are considerable cheaper as well than purchasing a physical book.
