Inventions like the light bulb, the telegraph, and the telephone helped the economy grow during the Industrial Revolution. These inventions made it easier to do business. With the light bulb, it was easier for workers to see what they were doing. This allowed them to make more products and to make them accurately. It also was easier to maintain an office. The light bulb helped the office workers to do their jobs. With more products being made and eventually sold, the economy was able to grow.


The telegraph and the telephone helped improve communications. It was easier for businesses to communicate with each other and with their customers. Owners and managers could make business decisions faster with the telegraph and the telephone. They could make quick adjustments to the workforce based on specific needs. They could also adjust their need for supplies quicker based on the demand for their products. People could order products quicker. This cut down on the time it took for a customer to receive an order after the customer decided what needed to be purchased. Since it was easier to make an order and process it, more products could be produced and sold. This also helped the economy grow.
