7 Bold Lessons I Learned About Digital Tools for Art Gallery Management I still remember the first time I tried to manage an art gallery’s inventory. It was a chaotic mess of overflowing spreadsheets, scribbled notes on crumpled receipts, and a nagging feeling that I had misplaced a very expensive piece of art. The physical space was a sanctuary of beauty, but the back-end was a complete nightmare. I mean, we were supposed to be celebrating creativity, not drowning in administrative quicksand.

You're the CEO, the lead developer, the marketing guru, and, yes, the head of HR. The thought of adding another layer of complexity—figuring out which HR tech to use—can feel like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded while juggling flaming chainsaws. It's overwhelming, it's confusing, and it feels like a monumental waste of time you simply don't have. I've been there. I built my first remote team from a coffee shop with just a laptop and a dream.

I realized I couldn't just "wi...
