TECH TOOL FAVORITE OF A
NON TECHIE. FOR SOUL MATES.
I'd like to make a confession. I repell tech. There. I said it.
But there are tech tools that I love. Because they make it fun and easy to juggle courses, memberships, a podcast and a gazillion other things as an online entrepreneur. Every day.
Like Kajabi. Find out
HERE'S WHAT MY FAVORITE APPS HAVE IN COMMON:
They're easy peacy to use
and super-reliable. Building pages and hosting webinars, course, membership or podcast is a bliss. They've #1 customer care and develop & innovate.
SO HERE I SHARE MY BESTIES
Of all the myriads
of tools I tried. Ugh, don't ask. No! Do! Ask me, when you need more info and also: Tell me please, when this has helped you. mpower[at]mignonfuchs.de

Keep it Easy
e.g.Templates
Use them, tweak them and don't overthink it.
I love templates. They are here to make our lives easier. And they prevent us from burning brain calories for things that others already have done for us. And better. So use them. By the way. Do you like this page? Yaah. Well. It's a template. Of Meg's. Wanna get beautiful templates for free, test it and make it your own? ***Does that sound creepy only in my ears?*** ...Ummh, Go, get it, Tiger!
Invest in Solid Tools
e.g. Kajabi
My 'One Ring that Rules them All..."
When I think how long it took me to finally decide to go for Kajabi, I laugh. Nervously. But when I think that it was the first tipp for a course creation platform that I got (thank you, James Wedmore) I ugly cry. By the way, when you do the math. Kajabi is worth the investment. Because you HAVE IT ALL in one place. So please, don't be me. (You can now stop looking for better solutions...)
Learn from the Best
e.g. Meg Burrage
My Kajabi Guru
Ok. If there is one person connected to helping me get over my fear of tech, it's Meg. She's super knowledgeable and the sweetest teacher. So you simply want to be her best student. And if you get the chance to have access to her Kajabi Step-by-Step Training: Go, use it buddy! It's Kajabi on steroids for tech phobic like me. And because I think she's awesome I am an affiliate.

REGISTER NOWAfter years of hunting the 'bestest and cheapest' content creator solution that would fit my needs
I FINALLY LEARNED THAT IT IS NOT SO MUCH MONEY THAT SETS BOUNDARIES,
BUT MY TIME AND ENERGY.
"So I see investing in the best tools actually as an investment in my time and energy. I spend a lot less in hiring people to fix what I've messed up or to let them set up systems, that I need to rely on without knowing what they actually do. And I learned that 'tech' can be fun when the tools are developed with dorky users like me in mind."
See, what I also love dearly and use daily:
KAJABI
Kajabi is a gallery of awesomeness. Yes, the price made me gasp first and think "whoaa... expensive...". But when you add up all the apps included that play nicely together: Email Management, Video and Podcast Hosting, Live-Video-App, Funnelbuilder, Automations, Website Builder and Host, Course, Membership and Community Platform, Appointment Booker and much more, then it's actually a bargain. And all that easily to handle and beautifully designed.
LEARN MORE >SEARCHIE
Because it let's my audience search right in the video content and podcast episodes. It transcribes all episodes, and sets captions, when I want to. It let's me arrange all my media files in hubs and talks nicely with other platforms. Building vastly automated paid membership sites never has been easier or faster. And integrating widgets into your Kajabi Page is like 1-2-3. It automates the uploading of new episodes from all Facebook, Youtube, Soundcloud, Apple Podcast and so much more.
LEARN MORE >PODPAGE
Because it combines all the things you want to do around your podcast, when it comes to giving her a proper home and seeing her as a business assett. You can collect leads and reviews. You can automate the upload of new episodes. You have a beautiful page for each episode where you can integrate upsells and transcripts super easily. She collects analytics and she integrates streamlined with other platforms such as Kajabi or Searchie.
LEARN MORE >CROWDCAST
Because it takes just five minutes to have a new 5 day Video Challenge up and running with a beautiful sign up page connected to your email service provider or Kajabi. Your participants do not have to download or install an app. You can have multiple hosts and guests on your podium. You can automate the publishing of your replays and download them. You can collect questions before your events and let your audience vote on their priority. And you can connect to Youtube and Facebook.
LEARN MORE >BUZZSPROUT
Because it makes connecting to all the major podcast platforms and a lot more easy. Even for people like me. Who were just starting out. It does all the nitty gritty stuff. It is super connectible to all the important podcast services that provide you with metrics and show you who your audience is. And they give you a fancy player, that is pretty and adaptable to integrate in your Kajabi page. I used it althoughKajabi offers podcast hosting, because I simply love the easy connectivity.
LEARN MORE >CANVA
Because it is a must for people who do not want to first become or hire a graphic designer, to just cut out a background or design a gif or prepare a series of social media posts. Or layout an ebook. Or build a lead magnet. It can be a time saver.
Canva has democratized (is that even a word?) graphic design for us common folks. It gives us solid templates and it doesn't care how we butcher it.
LEARN MORE >HEADLINER
Because it turns your audiofiles and podcast episodes in pulsating videofiles, that you can adjust to your liking. You can then automatically transfer them to be posted on your social media platforms, like Facebook, Youtube, Instagram. You can in just seconds transcribe all that's said. And the spoken passages are outstandingly accurate. You can produce captions instantly and give those social media posts that little extra they need to win the hearts of your audience.
