Having a great tool to help you design graphics and visuals for your business is such an asset. Canva Pro is my go-to graphic design tool due to its easy to navigate interface and flexibility. In addition, they have a free plan you can use to get going. The upgraded plan (a.k.a Canva Pro) truly offers a tonnnn of features that real-time-savers, like the ability to remove backgrounds, save brand assets, and resize your images for different projects and platforms.

This tool has been my go-to for creating social media calendars, content calendars, tracking and organizing marketing campaigns, and wayyy more! It's like Google Sheets on steroids. Their free plan is pretty robust! I will say Airtable can be a little bit of a learning curve, but to me, it's so worth it!

ClickUp is my go-to task and project management tool! I track all of my client work, projects, social media posts, blog posts, client portals, goals, and more all in this one tool. I basically run most of my business through ClickUp; I'd be lost without it! So give their free plan a try and watch your productive level soar!

If you are a fan of brainstorming your thoughts on a whiteboard, then hold on to your socks cause Milanote will blow you away! This tool is where I map out all my ideas and thoughts for launches, social media strategies, marketing campaigns, create flowcharts, and anything related to brainstorming big concepts. You can do A LOT with their free plan, and it's super easy to use.

If you manage Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, or Tik Tok (or all of them), then I highly recommend you check out Metricool! It's a user-friendly third-party post scheduler that allows you to schedule a variety of posts ahead of time, track your post-performance, and even manage ads in a very straight forward dashboard. They have free and paid plans available and you can get away with doing a lot of things on the free plan.

It's nice to have a second pair of eyes on your content, but there isn't always someone to help proofread your posts or other marketing materials! Grammarly is my go-to tool to use to check for spelling and grammar mistakes. They have a desktop app, website, and mobile app!
