          Strikingly - Easy Website Maker

          Strikingly brings beautiful mobile websites to everyone.

          I use it to make this and the website that you are on. It was a simple plug and play format. It took me less than an hour to have something ready to go. There were no headaches to navigate to building my website. The customer service is friendly and efficient. I should add, 4 months of full features free with a university ID.

          ActiveCampaign - Email/Customer Experience Automation

          Automate your business and your marketing

          This is where you go when the limitations of Mailchimp let you down. I spend a ton of time during the fall of 2019 working to use this software to automate workflows for my social media education business. It blows my mind all the things you can do with it.

          Also, they are local to Chicago! I have gone to their office for a lot of events over the years. They are fantastic hosts and are constantly hiring!

          FreeUp - Hire Good Freelancers Easily

          This is a competitor of Upwork and Fiverr but is highly selective of who they let on the platform

          You can hire people from all around the world at various price points. I like that they make personal introductions to people who are good fits for my projects. The customer service is awesome and so is the founder. Within a day or two of signing up, the founder called me out of the blue to just say hi and see how I was doing. You can even book a call with him if you want.

          Patreon - Get paid by your fans

          This is crowdfunding for content creators

          This is how content creators can monetize their community by having their audience pay their salary through recurring payments. If 1000 people give you a dollar a month, that is not too shabby.

          VistaPrint - Where I get business cards

          10+ year customer!

          I have been getting t-shirts, mugs, calendars, magnets, and business cards from them for over a decade! I was using them when they gave away 250 free business cards to everyone. The quality of the experience has gone up and so have the prices. I appreciate that they now offer design services for almost no money to their clients.

          They also shipped another set of cards when they did not arrive in time. They definitely try to make things right when they can.
