5 Digital Marketing Tools That Will Simplify Your Online Business
5 Digital Marketing Tools that Will Simplify Your Online Business | The Visionary Method
We’ve all heard the phrase “Work Smarter Not Harder”.
But how many of us are actually following that advice?
Many business owners claim that they want to find efficiencies in their business so that they don’t have to work long days forever, but I think we can all agree that this is so much easier said than done...😭😭😭
In the early stages of running my business (the first 1-2 years, in particular) I was doing everything and owning every job, in order to keep the lights on.
On any given day I was…
Creating Social Media Graphics in Canva
Booking Podcast Guests for the Visionary Life Podcast
Writing, Editing and Posting Blogs on my website
Coaching Clients
Building Online Courses
Responding to Every Email
… & the list goes on!
Unfortunately, getting through my daily task list left me with very little additional time.
I had 100’s of ideas of how I wanted my business to operate, but I didn’t have the time in the day to work on implementing these systems.
Something that I now recognize is that I had avery scarce mindset around investing in systems and tools to help me, because I saw them as an expense rather than an investment.
Think about that for a moment…
There’s a massive difference between the 2 words!
By definition…
An expense is: the cost required for something; the money spent on something.
An investment is: the action or process of investing money for profit or material result.
It’s scary to start investing in business tools that have monthly recurring fees, especially when you might not know what your return on that investment will be, but there’s likely to be a massive return on investment that awaits you.
That’s right!
Say you invest $20.00 per month in an Artificial Intelligence Copywriting Tool like Jarvis.ai.
This investment is likely to support you in outputting at least 10x more content than would be possible if you didn’t have an A.I. Copywriting tool.
Through that extra output of content, you get more inbound leads in your business - which leads to increased sales - which boosts your bottom line of revenue.
Make sense?
As someone who took that leap into various Digital Marketing Tools to help me run my Online Business, I thought it would be helpful if I shared with you my 5 favorite digital marketing tools that I can’t live without and that have impacted the success and consistent growth of my business.
Did I mention I use all of these tools DAILY!?
Yes, you read that accurately… I use them DAILY and honestly wish I had started sooner.
Enough suspense, let’s get into ⬇️
1. Active Campaign
This is a key platform in managing the Email Marketing side of my business.

Visionaries, this is by far the most game changing tool for new business owners.

One of the most important parts of running a successful online business is having your website and social media accounts visible.
In order to be found on Google Search Engines by potential clients, it’s vital that you have marketing efforts geared towards increasing your visibility and discoverability.
Let me leave you with this thought: Do you hire or read the search pages past page 3?
Probably not.

4. Lead Pages
Would you like to take your business to the next level by selling more products and capturing more emails?

5. Canva
I get a lot of compliments on my graphics and video clips that I share on social media - and I love it because I create all graphics myself, even though I am not a designer.
Canva is a business owner's BEST friend.
It’s a must have tool for all entrepreneurs. You have the ability to create ALL visual graphics for your business in this one tool.
From invoices, to eye-catching social media images, pitch decks, workbooks, and so much more, you can basically do it all on this program.
