I'm starting an online business with $30/mo in tools instead of $500.
I'll share every AI tool, prompt and workflow I use, including what doesn't work.
Follow along if you're starting with a small budget.

10. Too many separate subscriptions
If you're paying for 5+ tools, look at bundles. I use a shared-access bundle (Luxury Tools on Whop, $29.95/month). It's shared access through a private browser, and some tools are occasionally unavailable. Audit first, then decide.
BREAKING: your tool stack is probably costing you more than your first 10 sales.
Product photos, ad scripts, descriptions, research, UGC videos.

9. Course-gated tool lists
Skip: paying $200+ for a course that just lists tools.
Replace with: testing one tool per task for a week and keeping a note of what actually saved you time.
