Managing your social media accounts and staying organized in general as a business owner can feel like a juggling act, but you can keep things running smoothly with the right tools. These are my absolute go-to tools and apps that make my life easier. 👇👇👇
🤺 Asana - My secret weapon for staying organized. I use it to plan my content calendar (and life) to keep everything on schedule. It works great for planning daily social posts, and it's nice to look back to see what was done in a previous month or year.
Why I love it:
Simple task management
It has a phone app
Perfect for content planning
It keeps everything organized in one place- No need for Google Docs, iPhone notes or old-school day planners.
📹 CapCut - For Short-Form Video Editing
CapCut is my go-to app for editing short-form videos, especially for Reels and TikTok. It offers advanced video editing features that are perfect for creating polished content. While a paid plan with more features exists, the free version works just fine! And you don't need to be a video whiz to figure this platform out.
A few of my favourite features are the closed caption tool, the polished transitions you can add and being able to load your brand kit so each video looks... well... on brand.
CapCut's templates are a fantastic and easy way to stay on top of video trends. There are a ton to choose from. For those who prefer creating vids and editing in TikTok but hate the watermark when downloading videos—CapCut is a perfect alternative.
Why I love it:
Free plan with robust features
Easy closed captions - no more fussing around in Instagram
Trendy templates for quick edits and photo/video dumps
🤖 FireFlies AI (for Meeting Recording & Recaps)
FireFlies AI saves the day by recording and summarizing the entire conversation. No more scrambling to take notes during meetings—FireFlies does it for me, and everyone on the call can access the recap afterward. It even shares how fast you speak, how much of the conversation was held by each participant, and the tone of the call (negative/positive.)
Why I love it:
Automated meeting notes
Perfect for team collaboration
Excellent for people who can't take notes while listening
Time-saving for busy schedules
💃🏼 Giphy (for Creating Fun, Hilarious Posts)
Sometimes, nothing says it better than a well-placed GIF! Giphy is my go-to for adding some humour and fun to posts. Whether it's a reaction GIF or something custom, it's the perfect way to keep content light and engaging. Remember, the big social content buckets to focus on are: Entertainment, Education and Adding Value.
Why I love it:
Endless supply of hilarious GIFs
Perfect for adding personality to posts
Custom GIF creation for unique content
📷 Unsplash (for Free, High-Quality Images)
When I need beautiful, high-quality images and am tired of scrolling Canva stock photos, Unsplash is a lifesaver. It offers a massive library of free images that fit perfectly with just about any type of content.
Why I love it:
High-quality, royalty-free images
Perfect for creating professional content
Did I mention completely free?
