Sooo.... long story, won't bore you with it. BUT in short, GrowthKit is back on Skool. Ask me anything.

Hey all, Doug allowed me to share a sneak peek of our new Tooltester Newsletter. It highlights the coolest new tools that will help you grow your business. Let's jump right in: Lovable (AI Coding) Lovable is like magic for an impatient individual like me. You write a quick prompt like “Build me a personal website for my digital consultancy business with the following details...” and within minutes, you've got a draft ready to tweak. I tested it one morning, and it had something (very decent) drafted before I even finished grinding my morning coffee beans ☕. Other platforms like Cursor or Claude Code handle complex projects better, but Lovable is by far the easiest to use. It can be used to build all kinds of mini-projects, landing pages, business calculators, you name it. Robert, at our sister site EmailTooltester, used it to build a ​smart travel suggestion app​ that picks destinations based on your home currency. I can’t wait to see how far this can go. 🔁 Alternative to: Cursor, Firebase and Claude Code Visit 👉 lovable.dev 💰 From $25 a month | Free plan available Uizard (AI Design) I don't have an eye for web design. Layouts and proportions just stress me out. So when I needed a homepage for my YouTube channel, I gave Uizard a prompt and let the AI do the rest. It came back with a solid first wireframe, and from there, I just dragged and dropped to tweak things, or asked the AI assistant for help. You can even sketch something on paper, or upload a screenshot of a site you like, and Uizard will replicate the structure / design for you. It also comes with loads of templates like landing pages, mobile apps, SaaS dashboards, and startup pitch decks, all ready to remix. 🔁 Alternative to: Figma, Canva, Framer or Adobe XD Visit 👉 ​uizard.io 💰 From $12 | Free plan available ⚡This Week’s Productivity Hack I run a YouTube channel (too embarrassed to share the link, sorry), and one thing I make a lot of are: thumbnails. Lately, I’ve been using AI to generate images of myself doing... stuff. Bit weird, yes, but also kind of addictive.

I thought I would back up my knowledge with a certificate...why not? So, I’m proud to share my latest achievement. A big thanks to TechVets for providing free access as a veteran, to this Coursera course. Any other veterans here in the GrowthKit community?

Sounds wrong? Keep reading. You post each week. You write smart stuff. But no one cares. Here’s why: 1. No plan = No growth Your posts might look nice. But without a plan? It’s just noise. 2. No talk = No reach Just hit "post" and scroll? You miss where trust builds—inside chats and replies. 3. No search = No traction If folks can’t find you, they won’t follow you. Think SEO first—always. 4. No data = No clue Guesswork is cute, till results fall. Your gut lies. Numbers don’t. I used to care more about looks. Fonts. Style. Catchy lines. Now? I care about what works. I track. I tweak. I talk. And I win more. Here’s your quick test: Are you posting, or are you growing? Are you guessing, or are you measuring? One shift can flip your results. Not more posts. Just better ones. Because content alone won’t win. But smart content will. Do you agree? Drop a line if you need some help figuring it all out.
