RESOURCES
As a business owner, I’m sure you know that things can get pretty overwhelming when you try to manage a billion things at the same time - I’ve been there (and I’m not one to gatekeep). On this page, I’ve gathered a list of my favourite tools to hopefully offer you some guidance from my own experience so far.
Please be aware that some of these may be affiliate links (marked by *) which means I may receive a small commission when you sign up or shop from this page. This doesn't cost you anything extra (in fact, you may secure a discount) and I can assure you I personally tried (and loved) all of these recommendations.

KORI WHITBY

When you feel the pull to scale, it’s important to make sure that every element of your brand ecosystem is optimised, refined and ready to take on the world – visual branding, marketing, strategy, client experience, and messaging. And if it’s messaging you’re missing, I can’t recommend Kori enough - I partnered with her on my own copywriting for this very website.
