Brandwatch – I spend hours each day trying to uncover consumer insights from social media conversations and this particular listening platform has the categorization features I need to be able to isolate sets of conversations and categorize them so once I log a set of data, I can see from a high level, where the trends and insights might be. It’s deep, technical and inside-baseball a bit, but I really love it and that’s the software world I play in most.”

Belive.tv – While there are many solutions that allow you broadcast to Facebook Live as a third-party tool, Belive.tv is made FOR Facebook. The integration of elegant lower thirds, viewer comments, custom branding, screen sharing and multi-guest broadcasts make it stand apart from the rest.”

“There are many to choose from, but I think I’d go with Trendkite. Measuring PR has always been more of an art than a science, but I really love the insight that the Trendkite system can provide. From drill downs into the impact of coverage, sharing of voice, integration with Google analytics, and more. It is a really powerful tool.”

“My favorite tool right now is actually Boomerang. It’s a Gmail add-on that helps me prioritize, save things for later and even pause my inbox when I need to really focus on a project and block off any background noise. My other go-to platform is Slack (no surprise there), it helps me connect with my favorite people around the world, collaborate with them and move fast.”

“I like using GigaBook. It allows me to send out my personal or general businesses booking link to clients or users. It offers an easy and efficient ways to enable my clients to schedule appointments with me. I then see a remarkably higher rate of incoming appointment requests. The bottom-line, the fewer obstacles you place in between yourself and clients ability to access you, or request your services, then the more you are likely to see in regards to requests.”
