Every tool, explained
A reference guide to every free tool covered in the workshops — what it does, why we chose it, and how it connects to the other tools in your system.
A note on tool selection: Every tool listed here is free at its core functionality level. We only teach tools that work without a paid subscription for the features a small business needs. This page is updated when tools change their pricing.
How the tools connect
The tools taught in these workshops are not independent — they form a connected system. A client books an appointment via your Calendly link. Google Calendar confirms it and sends reminders. After the appointment, you issue an invoice from your phone. The invoice PDF is automatically saved to your Google Drive invoices folder. A recurring Google Calendar event reminds you to follow up on unpaid invoices.
The stock spreadsheet in Google Sheets updates as you sell, and sends an email alert when you need to reorder. All of this runs on tools you already have access to — you just needed someone to show you how to connect them.
