You may also consider implementing a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policy. Most of today's workers own a mobile device, and hope to be able to use it in the office. Implementing a stipend or reward system for employees using a personal device can save you the cost of purchasing that technology, while still reaping the benefits of its use. Paired with a reliable strategy, BYOD empowers your workforce with efficient, mobile technology.

* Utilize utilities: Utility management is sometimes overlooked, but it can help your business avoid needless spending while employees are away from the office. On nights and weekends, there is no need for lights, computers and monitors to be left running. Intelligent power strips can automatically cut off power during set times, and the same energy-saving principle can apply to heating and air conditioning by setting the thermostat to a neutral temperature at the end of the business day.

Big or small, all businesses are looking for the secret to savings. Before you stress over your next IT bill, take a look at your organizational structure to determine where you can save more. Prioritize the cost saving techniques that will help your business most, and watch your profit margin grow.
