Black Friday for Solo Creators: Skip the Corporate Tools
Black Friday for Solo Creators: Skip the Corporate Tools
Black Friday is peak "buy more stuff" energy. Enterprise vendors are screaming about 50% off their bloated platforms.
Don't fall for it.
The Corporate Tool Trap
Big-name SaaS loves Black Friday because they hook you with discounts on tools you don't need:
- CRMs with 500 features (you'll use 5)
- Project management for 100-person teams (you're solo)
- Analytics platforms that require a data scientist (you just want to know if people clicked)
- Enterprise scheduling with SSO, SAML, and acronyms you'll never use
Sound familiar? You bought it last year. How much did you actually use?
The Indie Alternative
Solo creators and consultants need tools that:
- Do one thing well
- Don't require a manual
- Cost less than your coffee habit
- Actually get used
What You Actually Need
To Win Clients
A pitch page that looks professional without a design degree. Something you can send in 30 seconds that makes you look legit.
To Book Meetings
Scheduling that doesn't make clients create accounts, download apps, or navigate enterprise UX.
To Share Links
Short URLs that don't scream "I'm using the free tier of some random startup."
To Share Files
Secure sharing without IT department overhead.
The Anti-Corporate Stack
We built ConsultPitch for people who left corporate—or never wanted to be there.
- No feature bloat. Everything is essential.
- No enterprise pricing. Solo creator budgets.
- No 47-page setup guides. Use it in minutes.
- No sales calls to "see pricing." It's right there.
Black Friday Reality Check
Before you buy anything:
- Will you use it weekly?
- Does it solve a real problem?
- Could you do without it?
Most Black Friday "deals" are discounts on things you don't need.
Invest in tools you'll actually use.
