Notion. It’s great for organizing things. It’s free to start, and when I get big enough I’ll certainly pay for it.

project management and notes – Notion
Email – Zoho mail for custom domain, Instantly for email warmup, Wix email marketing (not great), Brevo for a side project
Website – Wix for a cms, WordPress for personal website, Carrd for simple one-page sites.
Website analytics – Google Analytics
Productivity – ChatGPT, duh.
IDE – Koder (I mostly just code simple things on iPad), FlutterFlow for full no code apps
Business – Zenbusiness for entity setup. A little bit expensive but worth it for me.
Bank – Grasshopper. Slow transfers but good interest rate.
Hardware – MacBook Pro, iPad, AirPods Pro.
I made a directory of marketing tools [here](https://marketertools.co) to help keep track of it all. But it’s just for marketing, because if it included ALL tools, it’d be very extensive.
