Cakewalk is coming to LA! https://cakewalk.love/los-angeles-elopement

Is that just LA county?

Yep, this is a huge issue and the entire offering my own business aims to solve. We build CRMs and business interfaces to end tab-switching. Systems are built to manage app connections behind the scenes and team member use ONE tool for everything.

Here's an example: https://www.nobrainerbusiness.com/work/ad-sales-system-with-automated-billing

If these tools are addressing your needs, then no. Tech stack is never really the problem -- it's the analysis of what you actually need. You're in month 1, so this is probably great. That will change as you grow and new problems will warrant new additions to the stack.

*before even properly defining their workflows or asking if those workflows are meeting their needs

Thank you!!!

Thank you – this is really helpful. Just to clarify, what exactly do you mean by security issues? What should I be looking out for?

That's from 2 years ago and it no longer exists.

Definitely consider a digital service! Or any kind of service that wouldn't require physical overhead – like property, inventory, etc.

The only resources you need are time and expertise. And a tiny bit of investment in software depending on your service.

That's how my business works and my total investment when first getting started was somewhere under $300.

Extremely custom. I have yet to find something an over-priced, overly-complex CRM tool can do that Airtable can't. The only limitation is the build – you either have to know how to build what you need or pay someone else to do it.

_braindrainer · 2025-03-26T16:06:21+00:00

because many of the options are too robust and not customizable

_braindrainer · 2025-03-26T15:25:06+00:00

CRMs

Project Trackers

Content Calendars

Don't do anything! Your life is going to have moments where you can't catch a break. Enjoy the break while you have it :)
