Hello Creatorpreneurs!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, MERRY CHRISTMAS, AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL! 🎉🎁🎄
Marc here, and along with Lisa, we’ve decided to play Santa (less the red suit) by bringing you an awesome collection of online tools that have majorly boosted our business, Laughingbird Software, over the past year. Consider these tools our gift to help make 2022 your most productive (and profitable) year yet!
So, grab your favorite hot beverage, sit back, and dive into this fun, resource-packed list. Oh, and maybe bookmark it—you know, for those “I need help!” moments after the holiday cheer wears off. 🎅
The Creatorpreneurs Newsletter – Issue #14: Your List Of Tools for 2022
As always, full disclosure: Some links below may be affiliate links. If you make a purchase, Lisa and I get enough extra coffee money to keep creating fantastic content like this (because, caffeine = creativity, right?) ☕
1. Link Whisper
Making your internal links smarter (and your Google rankings happier)!
If you’ve been fumbling around adding internal links to your site manually, you need Link Whisper in your life! This revolutionary WordPress and Shopify plugin turbocharges the process by suggesting relevant internal links so you can keep your readers hopping around your site longer. The added bonus? Google loves it too, and better rankings might just follow.
Lisa swears by this tool for her eBiking Today blog. She says it’s like having a fairy godmother for her SEO work. Trust me, you want this in your toolkit.
2. Rytr.me
If AI could do your chores, you’d jump on board, right? Well, AI can’t do the dishes just yet, but it can help you write like a pro. Say hello to Rytr.me, your shiny new AI writing assistant.
We’ve used Rytr for ad copy, product descriptions, and other content tasks that typically take ages. Rytr whips out polished content faster than you can say, “Where’s my thesaurus?” Plus, it does it all for a fraction of the cost you’d pay a human writer. It’s like having Shakespeare as your intern, minus the ruffled collar.
3. AppSumo
Want to grow your business without taking out a second mortgage? Check out AppSumo—a treasure trove of amazing deals for software tools you probably didn’t even know you needed (but definitely will, once you see them).
We’ve snagged tools here at ridiculous discounts that make our inner bargain-hunter do a happy dance. Pro tip: Don’t wait if you see something you love—they sell out faster than Black Friday TVs!
4. The Graphics Creator Online
Because, let’s be real—your business deserves to look as cool as it is.
Whether you’re creating logos, social media posts, or blog graphics, The Graphics Creator Online is your go-to. It’s like a magic wand for non-designers. Don’t believe me? Check out our library of graphic design tips for small businesses to see how much easier things can get.
Pro tip: It’s all click-and-drag with professionally designed templates. Yep—it’s as fun as it sounds (trust us, we’re addicted).
5. Fiverr
Need a hand but forgot to clone yourself? Fiverr is your ultimate time-saver. From graphic design to website optimization, their pool of freelancers will do the job while you kick back.
We’ve hired talent for projects that range from the simple (“Can you fix this logo?”) to the complex (“Make our site less yawn-worthy”). The service turnaround is crazy-fast, and the pricing is just as friendly for solopreneurs as it is for bigger teams.
Bargain hunters, unite!

Yes, Zuckerberg’s algorithms are singing lullabies for Facebook Groups these days. So, why not ride the trend? Creating your very own group is free, fun, and a fabulous way to build a community of like-minded folks.
What’s stopping you? Whether you’re obsessed with vintage comic books, passionate about e-biking, or trying to conquer the niche world of llama farming—I guarantee there’s a group waiting for you to lead it!
And here’s the kicker: Consistent, valuable content will attract members quicker than free donuts at the office. So give it a shot—you’ll thank us when you’re the proud owner of a thriving group!
