Episode 132: Summer Mini Marathon - Notion

About this episode

The episode discusses essential tools for running and growing a business without burnout.

Running a business can feel overwhelming. Too many ideas, too many tools, and not enough time to make it all work. This summer, we’re breaking down the tools that actually help us run and grow our business without burning out. Welcome to the Smart Tech Summer Mini Series. Each short episode focuses on one tool we use in our day-to-day—from email and organization to content creation, AI, and marketing. We cover platforms like SaneBox, Notion, Linktree, CapCut, Printful, Claude, Arvin, Megaphone AI, and Giphy. We walk through how each tool fits into our workflow, what problem it solves, and how you can start using it in your own business. If you’re running a business, creating content, or just trying to stay organized, this series is for you. New mini episodes drop all summer. The right tools don’t just save time—they change how you work. Connect with the Pet Shop Girls!
