In my FREE masterclass, How to Have a 10,000 Subscriber Year, I’ll teach you 1 strategy to implement in each quarter of the year (doable!) to start adding new future-buyers to your email list in as little as 48 hours and to end up with 10k new subscribers within a year.

Leadpages

This single tool has saved my entire team literally hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars per year. Leadpages is the perfect resource to help you scale your business, because it allows you to confidently roll out lead-generating campaigns in record time.

ConvertKit

Try their free plan that allows you to make unlimited landing pages and forms and choose from multiple templates, add personalization and design, include an incentive email, create a thank you page, manage subscribers and send broadcast emails.

Searchie

Searchie is the most flexible, easy-to-use online platform to create, organize, and sell digital courses and memberships. You can create beautiful, tailored content experiences that serve your students at a much higher level. Searchie has saved us SO much time and energy with automatic transcriptions and captions, and seamless integrations with Facebook, Zoom, and many more. Plus, our students LOVE that they can search inside all of our audio and video content by keyword—they're able to find exactly what they’re looking for in seconds!

Spiffy

I love this tool! Spiffy has all the features you need to grow your sales and manage revenue. Not to mention, I saved thousands of dollars in development fees. But still, my favorite thing about Spiffy is that it seamlessly integrates with all my other tools and their incredible team that supports with everything you need. Spiffy allows me to launch my courses faster, with the confidence that all the pieces of my funnel will play nicely together.

The Podcast Lab

Introducing Your Complete A to Z Podcasting Roadmap! I’ve partnered with my friend, Jenna Kutcher, to share her course, The Podcast Lab! I know if you take what you learn from her and put it into action, you’ll tap into the power of podcasting for growing your email list, reaching more of your ideal clients, increasing your sales, diversifying your revenue, creating incredible relationships, and so much more. She shares her proven, 5-step stress-busting system and process to plan, create, launch, promote, scale, and monetize your podcast in just 30 Days.

Full Focus Planner

The Full Focus Planner helps you take control of your day and start living the life you desire. Built on the science-backed Full Focus System, each page is intentionally designed to increase your focus, eliminate overwhelm, and accelerate your goal achievement. And it’s not limited to professional growth. Features include ten life domains, daily rituals, and self-care exercises that serve as needed reminders for any achiever who struggles to unplug from work. As you produce your digital course, the Full Focus Planner will help you achieve more by doing less. This is how you win at work and succeed at life.

SiteGround

If you’re starting from the very beginning, I recommend creating a website with wordpress.org and hosting it with SiteGround. It’s an effective and affordable way to make sure your site is always up and running.

PopUp Ally

In my opinion, list-building should be a primary focus on your website. This is even more important when you're just beginning to build an audience. PopUp Ally will help you maximize your site's list-building potential -- in a non-spammy way. This tool is a popup plugin that actually improves the user experience on your site. Its smart technology anticipates people’s needs as they browse around your site, making PopUp Ally far more effective than a lot of the other “in-your-face” popup options.

Evernote

You may already be familiar with this wildly popular tool. Evernote is a crowd favorite among entrepreneurs and marketers. It’s great for taking notes and brainstorming -- especially on-the-go. A big bonus for me is that it's almost impossible to outgrow Evernote. You can start with the free version as a beginner, and level up later.

Google Drive

Accessible from anywhere with internet, Google Drive is a great collaborative tool for teams to use when you’re working with content, files, or images in tandem. Unlike DropBox, multiple parties can be in a file at a time manipulating data or text without having to download and re-upload the file.

DropBox

In my opinion, the key to minimizing stress in business is staying organized. Dropbox is where I store and systematize my files so that everything has a “home.” You can start using this tool for free and upgrade as your library of digital assets grows.

Last Pass

If you’re still committing passwords to memory (or worse -- using the same password for most of your major accounts), it’s time to geta password manager. My personal favorite is LastPass. I love that it allows me to securely share sensitive information (such a social media logins, etc.)

Now that you’re starting to manage a lot of moving parts, you’ve got to stay organized. Asana helps my entire team keep track of our work. We use this tool to communicate, share links, stay on top of deadlines and keep everybody in the loop.

Screenflow

ScreenFlow is a powerful, easy-to-use screencasting software. I use it to record the contents of my screen when I create courses and train team members. You can also use ScreenFlow to capture video from your webcam and audio from your computer and external mic.

Camtasia

This high-quality video editor and screen recorder is an all-in-one powerhouse. It’s a user-friendly favorite of course creators. Consider Camtasia if you're thinking about creating online training courses with quite a few on-screen tutorials.

Yeti Mic

I’ve used quite a few mics over the years, and the moderately-priced Yeti Mic is tried and true. When I use mine on webinars, I almost always get compliments about the sound. Audio-pros may opt for something slightly fancier, but I think the Yeti Mic is a great option.

Zencastr

Zencastr is a very simple, web-based audio recording platform. Their tag is, "studio quality without a home studio," and, friend, do they mean it! There's no software to install...you simply sign up, open a web browser, and start recording! It's very simple to use for you AND your guests. Plus, there are lots of fun features to share, but one of my favorites is their Cloud Drive Integration -- and that's just a fancy way of saying that the audio files can be automatically uploaded to your dropbox.

Vimeo

Vimeo is a video-sharing website that allows you to upload, share and view HD videos. This tool has several features that make it ideal for collaborating with a team.

Help Scout

Help Scout is a customer support portal that was designed to make it extremely easy to provide incredible support to your audience. If you have an online training course, you will want to have support tickets available for people. I take pride in the service my team and I provide for customers, so we love that Help Scout allows us to view tickets, assign tickets, see the last activity, and then close tickets when an issue is resolved.

I also love that you can turn it on and off at any time. This way, you’re not tied to your computer in fear of missing someone’s question.

ClickFunnels

I am a fan of all-in-one tools that allow you to scale without the stress. ClickFunnels is an funnel automation tool that streamlines your promotions. Pair it with Deadline Funnel, a countdown timer that adds urgency to tell your audience they need to act NOW, and sales will start rolling in while you sleep.

Deadline Funnel

Embed countdown timers in your emails that are automatically synced with your sales page timers to add urgency and get your buyers to take action, now.

Slack

Slack is a communication tool that can literally eliminate the hassle of having to go back and forth via email with your team. It allows you to keep in touch with everyone -- and it even connects to other tools you use, so you won’t have to switch between apps. A word of warning: stay focused in Slack by keeping topics separate, setting up private communication channels and archiving channels that you don’t use.

SnagIt

This tool is a simple-to-use screen capture and screen recording app. Use it to train new team members, to quickly troubleshoot tech issues (show service people problem -- they like this better than when we non-techy folk try to explain it in plain English) or to reference something visual in an email.

Google Drive

Accessible from anywhere with internet, Google Drive is a great collaborative tool for teams to use when you’re working with content, files, or images in tandem. Unlike DropBox, multiple parties can be in a file at a time manipulating data or text without having to download and re-upload the file.
