Man analyzing business performance data on a laptop, illustrating transformational resilience and the Elevatus C2R2E approach to rebuilding clarity and structure during major life or business transitions.

When I launched Elevatus Coaching, I didn’t have a team.
No designer. No developer. No assistant.

Just a mission—to help people rebuild structure and confidence through major life transitions—and a handful of tools that turned that vision into a business.

To this day, I still run Elevatus completely solo; at least for now. These tools automate, simplify, and support every part of my work—from client onboarding and content creation to analytics and digital product delivery.

They don’t just save me time.
They give me freedom.

If you’re a coach, educator, or professional trying to build something meaningful—without burnout—this stack may help you do exactly that.

1. Elementor – My Website Builder of Choice

I built the Elevatus website myself using Elementor Pro.
After about a week of self-teaching through free tutorials, I had a clean, responsive site that fully aligned with my brand.

Why I Love It:

  • Drag-and-drop design—no coding required

  • Custom landing pages for lead magnets and digital kits

  • SEO-friendly templates for blog posts

  • Affordable alternative to hiring a developer

  • Extensive free learning resources — YouTube tutorials, community templates, and forums that make it easy to grow your skills

Elementor gave me creative control and professional polish—all without outsourcing.

2. Kit – Email Marketing That Feels Human

Kit powers my email list, lead magnets, and nurture sequences.
It’s built for creators who want automation that still feels personal.

Why I Use It:

  • Simple automation and segmentation

  • Tag-based organization

  • Clean interface and actionable analytics

Kit helps me stay consistent and connected with readers who subscribe to my e-mail list through my blog and digital products.

3. Google Workspace – My Digital HQ

From onboarding to scheduling, Google Workspace is the operational backbone of Elevatus Coaching.
It’s where communication, documentation, and systems come together.

How I Use It:

  • Professional Email: [email protected] (not my real e-mail) for credibility

  • Google Forms: client intake, surveys, and progress tracking

  • Google Drive: organized cloud storage for templates, PDFs, and digital kits

  • Google Calendar: schedule management and content planning

It’s reliable, integrated, and scalable—ideal for a one-person operation running multiple programs.

4. Google Search Console – My Visibility Engine

Visibility drives trust. Google Search Console helps me monitor how people find Elevatus online and what content performs best.

Why It Matters:

  • Tracks keywords, impressions, and click-through rates

  • Identifies indexing or SEO issues early

  • Shows which posts generate organic traffic

  • Connects directly with my WordPress site

This tool turns guesswork into insight—helping me refine content and grow visibility strategically.

5. AI Tools – My Strategy and Insight Partner

I use a variety of AI tools to help me develop content strategies, evaluate my website, and analyze performance across my content delivery vehicles and website traffic.
Because when you run a coaching brand solo, AI isn’t about replacing creativity—it’s about turning insight into action.

How I Use It:

  • To plan and refine content strategies based on audience behavior

  • To evaluate user experience and website flow

  • I use AI tools to analyze performance across Google and my social media platforms, allowing me to make data-driven decisions for Elevatus based on insights from my content delivery vehicles and website traffic.

  • To summarize analytics from Search Console and other data sources for faster, clearer action

  • To test frameworks, ideas, and headlines before publishing

AI has become my quiet co-strategist. It helps me connect the dots between content, visibility, and performance—so every decision I make is grounded in data, not guesswork.

6. Adobe Creative Cloud, Designrr, and Canva – My Digital Product Powerhouse

Every Elevatus visual, digital guide, and program—from Launch Ready to Discovery Advantage—was created using a combination of Adobe Creative Cloud, Designrr, and Canva Pro.
Each tool serves a specific purpose in my creative process, helping me move from concept to completion with clarity and precision.

How I Use Them Together:

  • Adobe Creative Cloud: For professional layouts, polished visuals, and high-quality exports. Adobe gives me full control when I’m creating detailed templates or visual assets that represent the Elevatus brand.

  • Designrr: For transforming frameworks into formatted eBooks, lead magnets, and downloadable guides. It streamlines content design and publishing, saving hours of formatting time.

  • Canva Pro: For brand consistency—infographics and PDFs.

This combination allows me to create, design, and publish with agility. Together, they make it possible to maintain a high-quality brand presence—without outsourcing design or losing creative control.

7. American Express Business Checking – A No-Fee Business Account That Works

When I launched Elevatus, I wanted a business account that was simple, professional, and credible.
American Express Business Checking checked every box.

Why I Use It:

  • No monthly fees or minimum balance requirements

  • Debit card for easy business expenses

  • Backed by a trusted, respected brand

  • Clean online dashboard and mobile app

It’s an ideal solution for small business owners and solo founders who want a legitimate, reliable financial foundation.

Final Thoughts: Strategy + Tools = Elevation

These seven tools form the foundation of my daily operations. They allow me to:

  • Build a professional presence

  • Automate key systems

  • Analyze data across all platforms

  • Create polished digital products

  • Manage finances with clarity and ease

But tools alone aren’t enough.

That’s why I built Discovery Advantage and Launch Ready—two strategic kits designed to help people bridge clarity and execution.

The right tools don’t replace your effort—they amplify your direction. With the right systems in place, you can build confidently, adapt quickly, and keep elevating what matters most.
