I compiled this list of handy tools & resources for your business, so you can find the right tools quickly and with ease.

These tools will help you reclaim your time...every single week… through the power of automation, software and leverage.

And the best part?

Many of these business tools are FREE or super low cost.

Take a peek and if you find you need more help, reach out.

(no, really.  If you are frustrated by your current situation. Or if you are feeling strongly overwhelmed, angry, and possibly discouraged by the lack of progress you are making.  I’ll even say that you could be a little depressed right now. 

You are in the weeds feeling stuck just like a hamster on a wheel.

You should never feel alone when it comes to living your best life.)

 

🔴 For Creating Videos:

The Ring Light

First up, I can not function especially when it comes to LIVE video for my various online pages and groups without the Ring Light. This is the best money that I have ever spent. (I added the video below to show the Ring Light in action)

I can use this standing or sitting and it adjusts up, down, left or right. Super easy to put together and portable.

I’ve used it for LinkedIn Live, Facebook Live, Facebook group videos, Skype and live video meetings.

 

This has been the best money I have spent this year.  It minimizes flaws especially because I do not wear makeup or much makeup at all.

I turn up the light, my hair looks brighter, my skin glowsand I am ready to go.

So far I have only use the white clip on plastic ring.  Have not tried the orange ring but going to try it pretty soon.
