A little bit about Totally Booked
Kelly has 20 clients and her niche is E-commerce. She actually didn’t plan on doing E-commerce; she just fell into it when she was looking into the tech that she loves! Kelly enjoys how close everyone is in our community and how everyone is there to support each other. Being able to ask questions and bounce ideas off of each other really is empowering.
Internal tech stack overview
Kelly’s internal tech stack includes 1Password, which she has on her phone, and Chrome extension. HoneyBook is her CRM, Google is her go-to for her calendar, email, etc. Timeular is a Bluetooth device that you can write up to 8 tasks on and flip to the task you are currently working on to keep track of time!
