Hi Reader

Whether you are a small business owner or trying to make an extra $50 on side hustles, your time and your software budgets are often limited. Here are three things I’d put money or hours into this summer:

Learn to actually use AI: Claude Cowork

Most people are still using AI like it’s google, Claude Cowork is the step up. It works alongside you on tasks, pulling from your files and tools instead of starting from a blank memory every time. There are free plans for Claude, but not only do I recommend a paid subscription, I also recommend taking the time to really learn the tool.

Keep up without drowning: Superhuman.AI

The problem with AI right now isn’t a lack of news, it’s too much of it. Superhuman.AI is a newsletter that does the filtering for you: the actual developments, new tools worth trying, and how to use them, in a few minutes a day.

Organize team work: Notion

If you work with other people, on contact or with sponsors, using an actual project management tool makes life so much easier. Notion puts notes, tasks, and databases in one place everyone can see, whether they have an account or not. It’s easy to learn and simple to use but you can build more complex dashboards if you want to.

Thats it for now. I hope your summer is off to a good start ☀️

Thanks,
