Hope you’ve had a vibrant start to April, a month that kicks off with the light-hearted trickery of April Fools’ Day. Tinder gave us a good laugh this year with their whimsical "VP of Ghost Hunting" job announcement, diving headfirst into the ghosting phenomenon that haunts the digital dating scene.

Now, let’s dive into this issue with a smile, shall we?

In today’s issue of our beloved BizStack newsletter, I'm diving into a topic close to every solopreneur's heart (and wallet) - "Best Purchases Under $100 for Solopreneurs." We all seek those tools and gadgets that not only boost our productivity but do so without emptying our wallets. Today, I’m thrilled to share with you my personal favorite finds that have significantly uplifted my journey as a solopreneur, all for under $100!

🌟 1. Roost Laptop Stand ($89.95)

Imagine bidding farewell to neck strain while embracing ergonomic bliss. The Roost Laptop Stand has done exactly that for me. This compact, portable stand revolutionized my daily setup, allowing me to work comfortably for hours on end.

🌟 2. Logitech MX Master 3 ($99.99)

Precision, comfort, and unmatched efficiency - that’s what I found in the Logitech MX Master 3. Gifted by my wife, this mouse not only enhanced my workflow but also brought joy to those much-needed gaming breaks.

🌟 3. TidyCal - My Lifesaver Scheduling Tool ($29)

The search for an affordable yet functional scheduling tool led me to TidyCal. It’s simple and effective, and with its lifetime deal on AppSumo for just $29, it was an offer I couldn’t resist!

After testing a variety of URL shorteners, Switchy emerged as the ultimate winner for me. Offering advanced features and affordable lifetime access, it’s become an indispensable part of my digital toolkit.

Embracing AI with Marky has transformed my approach to social media. Its lifetime deal has made customizable social media automation both accessible and essential for my strategy.
