Flodesk

In our humble opinion, Flodesk is the M&S of email marketing. We have tried tonnes of platforms over the last eight years, and none of them have ever come close.
If you’re looking to create visually stunning yet strategically powerful email campaigns, Flodesk is for you! Get creative with your own designs or choose from their beautiful templates - both for email campaigns and online checkout.

Monzo
FINANCE
Monzo has been our business bank of choice since 2018 and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. From the ease of sign up, low fees and their incredibly friendly and responsive customer support, it was a no brainer for us to continue using them.
I recommend them to anyone - for both personal or business banking - and, as a self-certified design geek, their app makes me very happy! -
Canva

I’m going to go out on a limb and say you’ve probably heard about Canva!

Notion
PRODUCTIVITY
Okay, not to be dramatic, but Notion has probably changed my life.
It’s is an all-in-one workspace that helps you to stay organised, manage projects, and enhance team collaboration.
I, personally, use it to manage client projects, my personal to-do lists and loads more.
Databases, calendars, to-do lists… you name it, Notion can probably help you manage it!
