HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
My favorite go-to tools for online business
Squarespace*
FOR WEBSITE HOSTING & MORE
Squarespace is by far and hands down the easiest website platform for non-techie people. They also make it easy to do e-commerce and host a membership.
SiteGround*
WORDPRESS WEBSITE HOSTING
SiteGround is the most cost-effective WordPress hosting service. Its easy to use, fast, and more secure than some of the other options out there. (Do not use Bluehost or GoDaddy).
Divi*
WORDPRESS THEME & BUILDER
Divi is a website theme and page builder that makes it easy to create and manage a WordPress website. There are a TON of tutorials on this theme making it easy for those new to websites to use.
Flodesk
EMAIL MARKETING
Flodesk is an easy to use email marketing system that allows you to create beautiful emails. It’s pretty simple to use and also offers a great checkout feature for those selling products or services.
ConvertKit*
EMAIL MARKETING
ConvertKit is a little bit more robust than Flodesk in terms of what you can automate. It’s been around a bit longer. It’s another great option with a free plan available.
FunnelGorgeous*
ALL-IN-ONE
This is what I use in my own business now. It’s a wonderfully cost-effective option that replaces scheduling, funnels, online course and membership hosting as well as email marketing. They also have great support!
Canva
GRAPHIC DESIGN
From social media graphics to your logo, you can do so much with Canva!
Loom
SCREEN RECORDING
Loom helps you provide easy video feedback. It can be great for 1:1 service providers to use. It’s also great for course recording.
Squadcast
PODCAST RECORDING
Squadcast allows you to see each other while recording, but unlike Zoom, it keep each guest’s audiofile separate.
Gamma*
PRESENTATION CREATION SOFTWARE
Never spend hours on a power point (or Google Slides or even Canva) presentation again. Create amazing slides from an outline in MINUTES.
Teachable
ONLINE COURSES
I know Kajabi gets all the air time, but Teachable has the same learning management interface and is much easier to set up.
Circle
ONLINE COURSES & MEMBERSHIPS
A great option for those with courses and a community component and a little more to spend!
