CAREER TOOLS

Online Learning Platforms

Skillshare

This blog only exists because of Skillshare. I learned SEO, Web Design, and more on there, while Carolyne (who designed the Roostervane logo) used it to become a graphic designer. It’s amazing for would-be creatives.

Linkedin Learning

LinkedIn Learning (formerly Lynda) comes with a LinkedIn premium membership. It has courses on just about anything, and like Skillshare there are some big names among the teachers.

Udemy

Udemy is a pay-by-the-course platform

Coursera

Coursera is the online learning platform that looks the most like traditional college, and you can actually take college degrees on it. Add a course from Duke or Stanford to your resume!

DataCamp

DataCamp is the online learning site that’s dedicated to learning all things Data Science. Make the jump into coding and programming.

MasterClass

Cool courses from celebrities, athletes, world leaders, etc.

Entrepreneurship Tools

Mighty Networks

#1 Software for building and monetizing courses, community, & events.

Shopify

Best e-commerce site builder.

Teachable

Course-only tool.

Monday

An awesome project management tool. I use it to plan content.

Upwork

Platform for freelancers to find work.

 

Programs & Software

Headspace*

I discovered this app on the day of my comprehensive exams, and it’s been the single greatest thing of my life. Meditation saved me, and Headspace showed me how.

Bluehost*

I built Roostervane on Bluehost, and I love them. Their customer support is fantastic. I totally recommend them for starting a blog or website!

Kinsta*

Roostervane is currently hosted on Kinsta. It’s fantastic and fast, but also a little more pricey.

ConvertKit*

I’ve tried different email software over time. I really believe this is the best and it’s really easy to use.

Elementor*

Roostervane is built on Elementor. It’s a fantastic drag and drop page builder that works with WordPress and makes it really easy to create beautiful pages.

Canva

Easy design tool.

Some of these links pay me a commission if you choose to purchase from them, at no extra cost to you. This supports the work we do here at Roostervane. I (Chris) only recommend things I have used and benefited from.
