RECOMMENDED TOOLS FOR BUSINESS

KAJABI- ONLINE COURSES & MEMBERSHIPS

Selling online coaching and courses as well as a membership program has allowed me to help over 1000 creators and entrepreneurs. Kajabi is the online platform I use to host my coaching programs, courses and handles payments and automation all in one place. 

Kajabi is easy to use for non-technical people who want to focus on the content they are building for their products and the community they want to build. 

 

CONVERTKIT- EMAIL MAKRETING

Building your email list is more important than ever, if you don’t own access to your audience you don’t own your business. ConvertKit is my preferred email marketing solution because of its automation features and integration with nearly every major software and platform for online business. Honestly I can’t imagine my business without it at this point and it’s been a great return on investment.

LEADPAGES- LANDING PAGES

Building quick and convenient landing pages can help you with selling your products, and with growing your email list. I use Leadpages to help me make beautiful landing pages in a few short minutes and deliver FREE downloads to my audience so I can grow my email list and reach my audience.

Leadpages is one of the best marketing tools in my arsenal.

SimpleCast is what I use to host the Create Something Awesome Today Podcast and distribute it across all major platforms. I use it because it’s affordable and because of its convenient analytics. Simplecast is one of the best solutions for Podcast Hosting.

The intro for my podcast was done with Music Radio Creative. Mike and Izzabell Russell have built a truly amazing service and if you need your podcast edited for you they provide that at an affordable convenient price. My podcast wouldn’t be as amazing as it is without their help.
