The All-in-One-Platform That Runs My Business ๐-
This platform is relatively new, however it is constantly improving and evolving. Sometimes there are multiple updates in one day.
I was sick of having to login in to multiple platforms and tools daily for my business.
I have used an all-in-one platform before, Kajabi, for a different business several years ago. I liked it, but the email functions weren't
quite sophisticated enough for me at the time.
Freedomkit.ai is quite the comprehensive platform. Not only can I host my website and write blog posts right through the platform, I can do all of my email marketing through it, and host all of my pictures, videos, PDF's. Plus have all of my courses and other digital products be created and housed through the platform. That is a fraction of what it can do.
Phew, it can be a little overwhelming at the beginning. I don't recommend it for someone completely brand new to the online business scene.So far, it's great.
I love not having to log in to 5,002 different things, not to mention trying to remember all of those passwords. ๐
The Creative Fuel for my Business โฝ -
Creative Fabrica
The amount of content that is available for all of your crafting desires is truly dizzying. (In the best possible way.)
From graphics, to templates, to fonts, to mockups, there is truly something for everyone.
They even have a line of AI tools called Spark. I like creating AI generated patterns.
My favorite tool is Spark Crystalline which is creating transparent PNGs. (Fun fact: the majority of the images on Crazy Decisions are created using Spark Crystalline).
Ready to up your creative game and try out my favorite AI art tool? You can get an all-access 1 month trial for free! (And then it will renew at the regular price).

Coloring Page Scene Creators (From Lindsey @ Regel Designs)
I have an Etsy shop that sells a lot of coloring pages. One of my time-saving hacks is using scene creators to help me create coloring pages in minutes.
The scene creators from Regel Designs are multiple images that come with backgrounds and borders allowing you to mix and match pieces to create the perfect coloring page.
The elements work great for creating other printables, such as letter writing worksheets or kid activity packs.
