Tech Stacks
I'm a spiritual blogger and freelance marketer. Discover all of the tools I use to build success.
My Blog's Stack (Noir Coven)
Noir Coven is a blog that provides education and inspiration for spirituals, witches, pagans, and even Christians. We dive into history, alchemy, spellwork, moon magic, musings, and more. Here's what I use daily to build my blog.
Adobe Spark / Photoshop are my ideal design platforms especially for web or email.
Canva is becoming increasingly useful for social media marketing efforts.
Top tier, top notch, great for SEO - my #1, go-to, never fails me preferred web host.
Semrush speeds up the SEO research process and its information is crucial when I'm strategizing SEO. Love this tool.
Gaia is not exactly part of my tech stack, but provides valuable information in relation to my brand that helps inspire my content. Outside of my blog, I use it for personal reasons almost daily.
This is a WP plugin that makes building layouts, pages, posts, etc a BREEZE.
Mailchimp is my favorite CRM for getting started. It's a great tool and really has quite a few features for both free and affordable plans.
You can earn rewards and find several affliate partners here for your blog.
My Freelance Stack (Fresh Content Co.)
I worked in corporate marketing for a decade with a title in Email Marketing Management, but really was a jack of all trades. I recently decided to end my career and become a freelancer. Here's what I've used so far as I get started.
The most affordable and easy to use email marketing system (Psst! And if you hire me as your freelancer, I'm certified in CC and would love to work with you!)
this is my client portal - I love it! proposals, contracts, invoices, you name it.
Another “not really” tech stack, but as a marketer, it's good to keep up with the latest trends and earn new or update certifications along the way. I've used Coursera since 2016 and probably always will.
How do clients pay me? Directly, PayPal, Venmo, or I even accept checks :)
Told you I loved WP, I also use WP to display my service packages, portfolio, and more.
Hootsuite is my favorite marketing tool for social media. Easy to use scheduler and the analytics tool provides valuable insights.
Shopify is 2nd best to Wordpress in my opinion, but it's #1 for some of my clients depending on their product or service
I have subscribed to the Hubspot marketing blog for years. So much content containing helpful tips and insights into marketing trends and more
This has everything you need for keeping your finances, invoices, and budget for your biz in check.
