White or black foam core boards from craft stores can be used as reflectors or backgrounds. Good when shooting one light and just need some fill without much fuss. Easy to hold at different angles to find the best look too instead of moving a light around a lot.
Ratcheting hand clamps are great for holding wood boards, backdrops, props, anything that needs to be stable but the clamp won't be in the way of the shot. Can be had at hardware store.
In the same idea spring clamps are great for holding foam core and reflectors or anything else as well.

When working with highly glossy and reflective materials wear disposable gloves. You may not see the fingerprints but the camera damn sure will. Learned the hard way when a client handled a bunch of dinnerware sets after using hand lotion.
For editing, batch editing in LR of course but also save Photoshop actions you use a lot. Don't do the same thing 50 times, let the computer do it.
Stick your hand in front of a shot if you need a quick reminder the next shot is different or you changed something. It's better to shoot a note but not always necessary.
More expensive gear often increases convenience but not necessarily quality. Speedlights and foam boards can do the job if you need it to. Clients don't know or care as long as the results are there.
