PLEASE NOTE SOME OF THE LINKS WILL BE AFFILATE LINKS. BUT THAT IS NOT THE REASON THEY'RE LISTED HERE. WE ONLY AGREE TO BECOME AFFILIATES OF SOFTWARE WE'VE USED AND WOULD 100% RECOMMEND.
THRIVECART
Checkout and Course Platform
Every business has a need for a checkout system and there is no better in my eyes than Thrivecart.
But what really sells it for us is that it comes with a built in course platform for you to host courses and memberships.
PLUS! It’s a lifetime license!
It connects to email marketing systems easily and you can use pretty much majority of the payment processors (Stripe, PayPal, Klarna, Clearpay, Apple Pay, Google Pay etc).
And when it comes to taking payments you can setup payment plans, subscriptions and one off payments. Have tax calculations (makes my life so much easier) and setup affiliate links for your services/products too.
TIDYCAL
Call Booking Platform
A brilliant alternative to Calendly for those that don’t need SMS reminders or too much customisation on the email side of things or routing forms.
PLUS! It’s $29 FOR A LIFETIME LICENSE…
TidyCal is perfect for those who want to allow people to book into their calendar and it check for your availability.
Such as for discovery calls, client meetings or 1:1 paid sessions.
You tell it which calendars to check for conflicts, what times you actually want to be available and the cost of the call. Free or paid? Plus you can connect to Stripe or Paypal too.
ELEMENTOR
WordPress Drag & Drop Website Builder
If you’ve been in my world you know that I work with every single website builder out there. Divi, Beaver Builder, Avada etc and the non-wordpress builders such as Squarespace, Wix etc.
I never ever would actually recommend Wix or Squarespace. Always WordPress no matter what.
But to make WordPress easy to use, you need a drag & drop builder and here is no better and easier one to use than Elementor.
It allows you to easily create website from scratch or to edit a website that someone might have built using Elementor. I use it for all websites that we build and cry if I have build a website without it.
It saves time, it’s easy to connect to other systems like email marketing and it’s fast which is what you want for SEO!
KIT
Email Marketing System
If you visited this page a while ago… I’d actually be recommending a tool called ActiveCampaign. However… they’ve had huge price hikes and even though they are the best email marketing system, their prices make it not afforadble.
This is why for me Kit is the new leader on the market. It has majority of what AC had including the ability to do complex automations, send simple emails, integrate with various tools and of course get them all important stats.
We’ve recently been moving a lot of people from Activecampaign over to Kit and people are getting the exact same features PLUS are saving on average 60% of what they was going to be paying with the new pricing.
SCOREAPP
Quiz and Scorecard Builder
We love a good Scorecard/quiz and there is no better tool than Scoreapp for this.
You’re able to create quizzes that are much more than just answering some questions and getting a total score. You can create categories, use dynamic conditions, custom results pages, provide them a PDF after and so much more.
If you’re looking for a great tool to build your next quiz… then this is the one for you.
HEARTBEAT
Membership and Community
Gone are the days of using Facebook Groups for your community. Now it’s time to get a tool that has everything you need in one place.
One of our favourite recommendations for anyone wanting to run a membership with a community is Heartbeat.
You can have your community with different areas, direct messaging, events and connect direct with Zoom, create courses, a resource section and even have affiliates.
Everything you need in one place!
