My guest today is Angela Tan, who is like a systems fairy godmother. Angela believes that the fastest yet most sustainable way to make it easy for your people to discover you, pay you, and rave about you is by automating your marketing, sales, and client management process. Dreamy, right? That’s why Angela is passionate about educating online business owners on easy-to-implement automated marketing, sales, and client management workflows, so you can run a sustainable and hands-off business. But Angela understands that many of us waste way too much time and money on apps that we simply don’t need. Well, that pattern stops today thanks to Angela’s four step process to help you make informed choices about what tools your business actually needs and which ones work best for your brain.

I wasn’t joking when I said that this episode might save you money and a ton of time.
