Running multiple businesses means I don’t just want good tools, I need them. Tools that save me time and keep me organized are the ones I keep coming back to. Lately, three platforms have truly stood out: Moxie, Canva, and HubSpot Freemium. Each one has helped me run things more smoothly.

Let me break down why I’m obsessed,

1. Moxie, The Freelance CEO’s Best Friend

Moxie feels like it was built for solopreneurs like me. It’s all-in-one: proposals, contracts, scheduling, task management, and even invoicing. Instead of bouncing between five different tools, I’ve been able to centralize so much in one place.

Why I love it,

• I can send a proposal, contract, and invoice in ONE click

• Built-in time tracking and to-do list system

• Automated workflows that actually feel simple to set up

• 
  

It’s honestly been amazing to have something all-in-one, organized, branded, and efficient.

2. Canva, My Design Superpower

Canva has been everyone's secret weapon for looking polished without hiring a full-time designer. Whether I’m creating pitch decks or social media posts, I use Canva daily.

Here’s why it’s awesome,

• Gorgeous templates that save me HOURS

• Easy brand kit setup (so everything stays on brand)

• Fast collaboration with my team

  
  

What used to take me hours… now takes minutes in Canva, and it looks professional. I just never had the eye to make things look so polished and now I don’t need it! It’s done for me.

3. HubSpot Freemium, CRM That Doesn’t Feel Like a Chore

I finally gave HubSpot’s free CRM tools a chance,and it’s helped me stay on top of my leads and email marketing without feeling overwhelmed. I’ve been using it to track conversations, nurture relationships, and send out email updates to my list.

Here’s what’s been working for me,

• Contact tracking and email logging in one clean dashboard

• Easy-to-use email marketing tools (no tech headaches)

• Insights into who’s opening and clicking, super helpful for follow-up

  
  

And since it’s the free version, it’s been a no-brainer. HubSpot has made client communication feel intentional and organized, even as things get busy.

Final Thoughts

Moxie, Canva, and HubSpot Freemium each fill a specific gap in my business, and together, they’ve helped me show up more professionally and productively. I love when tools feel like teammates, and these three definitely do.
