Small Business Resources
Apps and tools to help your business
These are the everyday tools that keep my business running smoothly -- and they can help you too. They cut down the busywork, make small business life feel lighter, and free up more time for the work you actually love. I’ve tried plenty of apps over the years, and these are the ones I actually stick with.

Graphic Design Platform
Once you have your branding in place, use Canva to quickly and easily create and share on-brand social posts, presentations, and videos.
Time Tracking
I use this tool everyday. It’s a fantastic in-browser time tracker that is incredibly useful even at the free tier.
Stock Photos
BURST + KABOOM PICS + PEXELS
These are my go-to royalty-free stock photo and video sites. They’re great for filling in gaps, but I recommend using them sparingly alongside your own brand photos to keep your content authentic and on-brand.
Project Management
I’ve tried Asana and other project management tools, and found them too complicated and just stopped using them. Trello is like using post-it notes for tracking your to-do’s.
