Summary

I'm always looking for ways to work smarter and more efficiently, and to that end I took a recent inventory of my online business "toolkit." Of course many of these will be obvious to you, but hopefully you discover some helpful new resources as well. The good news? Many of these are free or at least have a free version! And if you're looking for the definitive guide to online resources named by top entrepreneurs, check out the full collection in my book, Work Smarter. One important note is I didn't start here. I've cobbled together this toolbox over the last 10+ years, and added expenses only as the revenue justified it. Start scrappy, start lean, and then invest where it makes sense! There are also a ton of great suggestions in the comments below! Full Show Notes: 50+ Tools and Apps to Work Smarter and Get More Out Of Your Side Hustle New to the Show?

0:21.4	Side Hustle Nation. And because I'm not that great at just reading off a list and monologing for an
0:26.2	hour, I thought it would be more fun to have a co-host for this discussion who's going to bring
0:29.2	her own opinions and insights and recommended resources to the table as well. She's the host of the
0:34.3	award-winning podcast that highlights black women entrepreneurs who scaled their side hustles into profitable businesses.
