This is my preferred stock photo source. I use and love their stock photo selection-- it's the best bang for my buck!

This is my favorite online design platform that is easy to use and makes it super easy to create everything from social media graphics to full digital products!

LeadPages is what I use to easily design landing pages, sales pages, and pages like this one. Again, their drag and drop program is easy to use and has amazing page-building capabilities!

This is a tool I use to great fun typography videos (animated text). I think this is a fun option for promotions and advertising if you aren't a fan of being on camera. 

This site is amazing. You can quickly turn your blog posts into video in just minutes- great for social media and generating traffic from facebook and youtube!

I use LeadPages for all of my landing pages on Simplifying DIY Design, it's so easy and I can use them with Teachable by uploading the html into the teachable sales page! Between designing opt in forms, landing pages, sales pages, and pages like this one- they are one of my favorite resources!

Elementor is my recommendation if you can't afford LeadPages yet. This is a free plugin (it has a paid option too but it's significantly cheaper than LeadPages) and can be used to create all the same pages as LeadPages can. It's super easy to use and my product Confident Funnels can provide you templates to use with the Elementor Plugin as well.

My preferred program for selling digital products. This allows your product to be automatically delivered to your readers when they purchase it AND it automatically deposits the money in your paypal.. plus you can set up your own affiliate program-- win, win, win!

My perferred course building platform. You can sign up for free and create a free mini-ecourse while you grow your list, and then start creating bigger courses for upsells. It's easy to use and your users will find it easy too. 

This program lets you create lead-generating quizzes which can help you funnel people into different offerings based on their skill level or personality type.
