Thrive Recommends

No business can run on Microsoft alone - I know that!

Running a business, and all the moving parts that go with that, is a juggling act - we both know that.

What I also know, is that sometimes, not really knowing where to start can be frustrating, and make you believe that it's all too complicated and expensive.

While I love Microsoft, and use it for a lot more of the back end of my business than most people, it's simply not possible to run everything using just Microsoft. So I've put together this list of programs, services and providers that I can't live without. 

Thrive is all about being transparent - I only recommend products and services that I have, or am currently using. I never recommend anything that I wouldn't use in my own business, or that I don't truly believe in.

Software:

Make some Microsoft Magic

Clearly, I'm a fan of all things Microsoft 365. I run Thrive using a Business Standard plan, but Business Basic is a solid place to start too. Check out the Microsoft 365 Business plans here:
