Join the Bloomfield Avenue email list to get instant access to FREE Resources, Tips, Tricks and Insights. We'll show you how to maximize your time and get back to living the life you want. There are no gimmicks, fees or hidden costs and you can opt-out at any time. We just want to share insights and serve you valuable content at no cost to you.

Below, you'll find links to some of my most-used resources and impressive products that I can recommend after having first-hand experience with them. However, before you scroll any further, please read this disclosure:

Some of the links that I will share are affiliate links. If you choose to make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Please know that we have personal experience with each of these products. I am recommending them to you because they have truly made a difference in my work, not for the sake of making the commission. I simply want to share these resources with anyone who might find them helpful.

When friends and family ask me for a quick design on a small budget. One of the first places I recommend is Fiverr. Fiverr is a community of doers built around the idea that people will trade a small service for a small $5 fee. This is called a gig. Not all gigs are $5. There is a Pro service that delivers high-quality doers for a higher amount. I've used the service myself for copywriting, editing, video editing, managing social media accounts, technical assistance and even custom illustrations.

Of course, there are some fees to use the service. It will actually cost +$2 for every gig purchased (i.e. if you buy a $5 gig, you're actually paying $7 at the end of the day; $10 gig = $12 and so on). You can choose your seller based on reviews, ratings and what Seller Level they have achieved. I always leave a tip when they do a great job. You're able to continue relationships with sellers (if you choose) by messaging them directly from your inbox. This is sure to make your next gig purchase simple and painless.

I've had some great experiences and I've had some could've-been-better experiences, but overall, I love Fiverr and I recommend it when I'm not able to help with a project. Check it out. You're sure to find something you're looking for. Try Fiverr >

One of the best productivity tools that we use for team collaboration is Trello.com. Trello boards are like digital Post-It notes and are very flexible. Automation allows us to to create incoming projects, set due dates, log and track billable time, add task details and checklists and notify users of deadlines or activity. Daily project management tasks that normally take a lot attention are completed in seconds with one email. The project cards are moved through the list workflow and action steps are easily tracked.

There are so many ways to use Trello outside of project management. A few examples are:

• Vacation Planning

• Wedding Planning

• Party Planning

• Renovation Planning

• Household Chore Lists

• Meal Planning and Recipes

• Lesson Planning and Course Creation

• Marketing Content Calendars

• Managing Sales Leads and Customer Onboarding

• IT Support Tasks

• Graphic Design or Video Production Goals

• Human Resources / Employee Documentations

The list is endless. Here is an overview of some of the ways others are using Trello to help compile and house all of their ideas, resources and tasks all in one place: https://trello.com/teams

The basic, free plan is extremely useful and comes with 1 or 2 Power-Ups. Power-Ups can be used to setup automations and connect web apps that you're already using, like Google Drive. Check out some of the available Power-Ups here: https://trello.com/power-ups
