Mila

Mila is your very own smart business assistant. It's a great business app for small businesses. This app helps you sell your products online, find new customers, and keep your finances in order. Whatever type of business one may have, the app starts to search social media for clients and potential business partners and makes a connection. Download the app from Apple's App Store, Google Play or the App Store of a smartphone. With the help of templates, you produce a profile of your company complete with a logo and photos. Mila puts it all on the web immediately, creating your own web presence, already optimized for Google and other search engines. No need to buy a URL, no need to hire a web designer, or to pay for webhosting, or servers. All this is done by Mila. Mila not only provides an online presence, it also helps find customers. While searching posts on Twitter or Facebook the app comes across a possible match for your product or service, you will be notified by a message. When a customer is found, Mila continues to support your sales by providing templates for transactions all of which can be filled in via the touchscreen of your smartphone. No need for a notebook or desktop PC. Paperless invoices will be mailed directly from your smartphone to the client. The app also checks the receipts of payment automatically and, if necessary, Mila will alert you to send a reminder.

Globalization, digitalization, and global interconnectedness was something only large, corporate businesses could benefit from. Mila changes that by democratizing the advantages of digital interconnectedness and putting them into the hands of the self-employed and small businesses. Anyone with a smartphone can now enter the global market via the internet because Mila is the first app to link cloud computing, social media and web semantics. This is a Web 3.0 app.

In Byrne's article, "How to Use Internal Collaboration and Social Networking Technology," he explains that social media tools can be adapted inside of a company to share data, support employees, and facilitate the exchange of ideas. This is exactly what Mila is going to be used for. Although this apps isn't used so much for social media, it is used to share data and find more customers for businesses. In the Campbell and Park article, "Social Implications of Mobile Telephony: The Rise of Personal Communication Society," they explain how mobile communication plays a central role in mass communication.
