Be That Business Newsletter #15: Three Great Digital Tools for Businesses!

This month's resources are some tools that I use with my business that you may find useful to! I am not affiliated with any of them, but I have found them handier than I expected!

1. Linkin.bio via Later.com: If you use Instagram you may have come across the phrase "Link in Bio!". This is because Instagram only allows one clickable html link in your Instagram profile. And even though you can type out an html address in your posts, it is not a convenient 'clickable' link. Initially, you would only have your website address in the bio. But there are now services out there that allow that link in your Instagram bio to go to a webpage that then has specific links to specific Instagram posts! (My linkin.bio page is here!) There are a lot of apps to choose from. I chose the one that is part of the Later.com Instagram marketing & scheduling platform. With Later.com you can schedule Instagram posts into the future. I currently don't use it for that though! I use it for the linkin.bio feature! And though you can pay for a premium subscription, the free subscription works well for me for now! I'm so glad I found a FREE "Link In Bio" app! It took a bit of digging, so I'm glad to share what I found!
   ​
2. Canva.com: Have you tried Canva.com yet? I use it to design a lot of my content, including my Instagram posts! So convenient! And the "Background remover" is so useful, and works better than the "Magic Wand" in my Paint.NET program! (side note; Paint.NET is a pretty good free image and photo editing software.). Canva has many templates and images to help design posts, presentations, and more. And it has both a free and paid version!
   ​
3. ConvertKit.com: I use ConvertKit to manage my newsletter subscriber list and distribution (I'm working in it this very moment to create this newsletter for you!). I love that I can create and design unlimited landing pages that allows people to download free content when you signing up for my newsletter! If you are thinking of starting up a newsletter, check out ConvertKit! It has free and paid subscriptions also!
