Our Top Free Resources For Home Business Entrepreneurs
These Are A Few Of Our Favourite Things
No we’re not about to burst into song aka The Sound Of Music
These are some of our favourite tools and resources we recommend (FREEBIES!)
The main ones paid and free are on our website along with books etc but what do we use everyday in our business that won’t cost you a bean
That’s a question we get asked a lot
Let’s start with my absolute favourite for graphic and video creation…including book covers, TikTok and YouTube promos and so much more…
Canva
Yes, we know it’s been around for a while but it continues to evolve all the time and now you can do just about anything with it that’s related to image/graphic needs including creating mockups and presentations as well as everything
You can happily start with the no cost version and go pro when you want to. I can’t say enough about this brilliant resource and if you haven’t used it in a while, go and see what great innovations they’ve added!

Canva now has an excellent integration with Pixabay (because they bought it!).
That brings me on to my go-to sites for stock images and videos…
You guessed it:
Pixabay : https://pixabay.com/
Another one that’s been around for ages and yes, we’ve tried all the others but we keep going back to Pixabay because it has such a huge variety of stock images and videos, is incredibly user-friendly and has a generous licence which allows you to do just about anything with its content
Another one we love is also probably familiar to you and that’s Unsplash

Want to host the courses/products you create with all of the above and more but not ready to find a course program due to the cost
No worries…
We love Systeme.io which will get you started and, again, you can upgrade when you’re ready…or stay with the basic version

We especially love this as we can create resources to share with our clients to help them build their business
Need to livestream as part of those courses or simply to raise your profile?
We recommend Streamyard

As far as AI goes, you’ve probably guessed we’re a fan of ChatGPT
As well as Grammarly
And the wonderful selection of tools available at Google Cloud

While if it’s an unzipping tool you need, 7-zip is great
Keyword research?
Try Semrush:

Tool to showcase your business assets on social media, emails etc
Linktree : https://linktr.ee/
New favourite :
Milkshake : https://milkshake.app/
And one more for luck
You can have all the tools in the world but if you don’t use them, you’ll achieve nothing.
Need a dose of motivation to help you get started?
Fav TED talk this week will give you just that:
