This is my favorite organizational tool for project management and overall business admin as well.  

There are so many connections with other apps and services which is awesome but Trello on its own is a powerhouse for productivity and Team Management as well. 

I've been using it for a few years now and it has helped me so much with getting my ideas organized and actually following through to create and execute all of my awesome plans.

This is the stationary camera that I've used for filming my online courses and many of my videos as well.  This is not necessary when you're first starting out (you can do a lot of good with a decent smart phone camera these days) but when the time is right, this is a great camera for stills or video.
