Here are several small projects that usually prove immediately beneficial to small businesses:

  • A program to generate reports based on information scraped from websites or mined from databases
  • Automatic email responders
  • Email systems that use databases to create and send personal emails
  • Opt-in mailing lists
  • Website performance metrics
  • "Dashboard" applications for allowing management to see a big-picture view of the organization's Key Performance Indicators
  • KPI Reports
  • Email reformatting, to make maximum use of small portable devices such as Blackberry
  • Database optimization - if your current database is slow or limited, this will increase productivity.
