The Nurture Stack: Tools I Use & Recommend
I don’t recommend software I don’t use and news sources I don’t read.
One of the perks of my work as a vCFO and Operations Head is that I’ve seen what helps businesses scale efficiently, and I’ve seen the “bloatware” that just costs money.
This is a curated list of the actual tools that run Nurture. If they are on this list, I pay for them, I use them, and I trust them to handle my business.
Productivity & Operations
Google Workspace. The backbone of my entire operation. If you are still running your business on a @gmail.com address, this is your first step to looking professional. I use it for email, calendar, and secure file storage. Get 10% off for the first year by following this link or by entering the promo code at check-out:
Business Growth
AppSumo. Software subscriptions can bleed a small business dry. AppSumo is my secret weapon for finding lifetime deals on software. Instead of paying monthly fees for CRM, marketing tools, or project management, I often find a lifetime license here for a one-off payment.
Find great software deals here.
The Hustle. Business news is usually dry, boring, or depressing. The Hustle is none of those things. It is a daily email that breaks down business and tech news in a way that is actually enjoyable to read. It’s how I stay across market trends without getting bogged down in the noise.

Power User Tools
SetApp (Mac Only). Think of this as the “Netflix for Apps.” Instead of buying individual licenses for Mac tools (like CleanMyMac, Bartender, or Ulysses), you pay one small monthly subscription and get access to 240+ premium apps.
Purchase a curated set of epic paid apps for just one monthly payment.
BetterSheets. You know I’m a spreadsheet enthusiast. This is where I go to level up. BetterSheets is a resource that teaches you how to make Google Sheets do things you didn’t think were possible. If you want to build dashboards that act like software, start here.
All from a Google Sheet. (Buy it cheap on AppSumo!)
Security & Data
OneTimeSecret. Please stop emailing passwords. If you need to share a login with a staff member or contractor, use this. You paste the password in, it generates a link, and—crucially—the link expires forever once it has been viewed once.
Send a password protected single-use link for free.
