Episode Summary: There’s nothing worse than spending time (and money) on tech that doesn’t actually make your life easier. In this episode, Sharrin sits down with the queen of accounting tech, Liz Scott, to talk about what makes or breaks a modern tech stack, and how to avoid getting stuck in subscription overload. Whether you're a tech-lover or totally overwhelmed by it all, this episode brings clarity to the chaos. From choosing the right apps to avoiding costly mistakes, Sharrin and Liz share what works, what doesn’t, and what’s on the cutting edge.
Together, they unpack:

Why most tech stacks become a time suck instead of a time saver
The rise of AI tools—and how to actually train them to reflect your brand
What every firm needs before implementing any new software
How to test, evaluate, and let go of tools that aren’t serving you
Smart strategies for managing subscriptions and trials (hint: virtual cards)
The power of niche tech stacks and why no two firms look the same
Real talk on app fatigue and why "set it and forget it" doesn't work

Why You Should Listen: If you’ve ever felt stuck in a pile of disconnected apps, this episode is your roadmap to sanity. Liz and Sharrin break down how to streamline your systems, confidently try new tools, and build a tech stack that actually aligns with your workflows, not complicates them.
