Tech Stack
& Business Tools

The systems and tools I use to run efficient operations and help clients modernize their businesses.

After years of trial and error running trade shows and building business systems, these are the tools I rely on—and the ones I recommend to clients who need to modernize without the overwhelm.

Brand & Content Engine

  • Canva: Brand kits, social graphics, decks, one-sheets, menus (my playground)

  • Crello: Extra design support when needed

  • Adobe / Acrobat: Polished PDFs, forms, tweaks

  • Vimeo: Hosting videos without the chaos

Business Backbone

  • Microsoft Office Suite: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook

  • Google Workspace: Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Admin

  • Dropbox: Shared files, backups, simple team access

  • Loom: Quick training videos, walk-throughs, SOPs

  • YouMail + Vonage: Call handling, voicemail sanity, not missing key calls

CRM & Client Relationship Systems

  • HubSpot: Pipelines, forms, workflows, email, lead status (my power lane)

  • SuiteDash: Client portals, onboarding, service delivery

  • GreenRope: All-in-one CRM/marketing for certain setups

  • Warm Welcome: Video-based greetings and follow-ups that feel human

Data, Dashboards
& “Nerd Tools”

  • Zapier: The “glue” that connects your tools so they talk to each other. I use it to automate boring tasks like adding leads to CRMs, sending follow-up emails, updating spreadsheets, and tagging contacts so things happen in the background without you clicking a thing.

  • Asana / Trello / Notion / ClickUp: Project + task management so you always know what’s next. I use these to organize to-dos, launches, content calendars, event timelines, and team responsibilities in a way real humans can actually follow.

  • Retool: Internal tools, simple dashboards pulled from different places

  • Retable: Structured, smarter spreadsheets

  • Trello / Notion / ClickUp: Task tracking, project management, content planning

  • Remindeo: Reminders and follow-up nudges

Events, Experiences
& Trade Show Stack

  • Eventee: Event content, schedules, attendee experience

  • Guidebook: Event apps and guides

  • GroupMe: Fast group messaging to keep teams connected and conversations organized

  • Whova: Full-service event app for check-ins, attendee engagement, live updates, sponsor visibility, and analytics. Great for delivering a polished attendee experience without extra staffing.

  • SocialTables: Floorplans, layouts, seating, traffic flow

  • AssociationVoting.com: Member votes, elections, board stuff

  • Feathr.co: Capturing attention before, during, and after events

Marketing, Email &
Audience Growth

  • Mailchimp: Email marketing, newsletters, sequences

  • Feathr.co: Retargeting + event marketing

  • Hootsuite: Social scheduling and consistency

  • Bitly: Link tracking so we actually know what’s working

  • Warm Welcome (again) – Personal touch on funnels and pages

Money, Contracts & Admin

  • Stripe: Online payments, subscriptions, invoices

  • Bluevine: Business banking and accounts

  • DocuSign: Contracts, agreements, signatures

  • QuickBooks: Bookkeeping and financial tracking (when/if in use)

Strategy & Gap - Spotting Tools

  • Where’s Waldo: My quick-glance gap finder that pinpoints what’s missing (or out of place) in your systems, tech, or workflow so we can tighten it up fast.

Websites, Stores
& Selling Platforms

  • Squarespace: Main websites, simple funnels, landing pages

  • WordPress: Legacy sites, blogs, add-ons

Affiliate Programs & Partner Revenue
If you’re ready to build or clean up an affiliate program (or want someone to finally make sense of commissions, cookies, and payouts), I help brands design affiliate systems that plug into the tools you’re already using.
