My marketing tech stack
The tools I actually use, and what I use them for. It is a short list on purpose. Strategy before the tools.
What I use now
AI and building
Where most of my thinking and drafting happens. My daily AI.
Built this site and maintains it. I describe what I want, it does the work, I review.
My first AI colleagues. Built as roles, not tools: a content person, a creative, an analyst.
- Magnific
AI image upscaling and enhancement. Used it for my short film experiment.
- My dictation system
Homemade with Claude Code and an iPhone. I talk, it captures and organises. Nobody else has this one.
Design and content
- Canva
My entire design department: pins, decks, brand assets, photo edits, and yes, even video.
Ads and channels
- Gemoniq
Our own AI marketing platform. I run the sauna business's Meta ads on it, which makes me my own customer.
- Meta Business Suite
Where the ad money meets reality.
- Pinterest Business
Pins, analytics and Trends. My quiet long-game channel for driving traffic to this site.
Measurement
- Google Analytics 4
Nobody's favourite tool, but it answers the questions.
- Google Search Console
What Google, and increasingly AI search, sees when it looks at your site.
- Looker Studio
My weekly marketing overview for the sauna business lives here, on the free tier.
Who visits this site and what they read. No cookies, no banner.
Everyday work
- Google Docs
Notes, drafts, and everything shared.
Takes the meeting notes so I can actually be in the meeting.
Where this site's code lives and how it ships. Every change is live in about a minute.
- Pen and paper
Still the fastest project management tool I know.
Not in the stack
- No scheduling tool. I post manually, and at my volume that is a feature, not a gap.
- No newsletter tool yet. When I start one, it will be because I am ready to commit to it, not to look complete.
What I have worked with
Fifteen years in marketing leaves a trail of tools. These I have run real work on, even if they are not on my desk today.
- Webflow and WordPress (previous startups)
- Wix (client work)
- Shopify (the sauna business)
- Adobe Analytics and Adobe Experience Manager DAM (the H&M years)
- Jira (also the H&M years, and yes, the tickets were real)
