Cool Tech Tools: Airtable

When it comes to running a successful business, how important is it to be organized? Very. 


How would you rank your organization skills? Honestly, the answer doesn’t matter. Technology can always help us get organized, and this is where Airtable comes in. 


Airtable goes beyond spreadsheet solutions when it comes to tracking teams, projects, tasks, dates, and other information for your business. Cloud-based, Airtable allows you to organize information in a database of tables called ‘bases.’ While databases can be complicated, Airtable makes them easy because they look just like spreadsheets. 


Airtable allows users to create a flexible database that fits their particular needs. Some of the use cases include project tracking, product development, event management, team collaboration, lists, planning, pipeline management, calendars, and so much more. Templates are also available to jump-start your project.   


Because Airtable is like a spreadsheet, it has been compared to Microsoft Excel. However, it’s important to remember that Airtable is like a spreadsheet and a database. Excel only functions as a traditional spreadsheet, while Airtable gives users more options, especially when it comes to customization. 


In Airtable, fields can even be added for attachments, long-text notes, checkboxes, links, and barcodes. It provides options for filtering, sorting, and grouping data. 


Airtable also integrates with other applications in case you need to move information from one place to another or add functionality. 


One other great thing about Airtable is that it has both free and paid plans. You can find out more here: airtable.com

The Transparency Trap: When Sharing Too Much Undermines Leadership

By Alisa McCabe • June 15, 2026
Transparency has become a popular leadership principle in modern organizations. Many leaders believe that openness builds trust, strengthens collaboration, and encourages accountability across teams. In many cases, that instinct is correct. Problems can arise, however, when transparency becomes excessive or poorly timed. Effective financial strategies require a balance between honesty and thoughtful discretion. Sharing every concern, uncertainty, or early-stage idea can sometimes create confusion rather than clarity.  Understanding where transparency helps and where it may unintentionally harm morale allows leaders to communicate in ways that support stability, confidence, and thoughtful decision making.

From Scrappy to Strategic: Evolving Your Leadership Style as Your Company Scales

By Alisa McCabe • June 1, 2026
Many entrepreneurs begin their journey with relentless energy and determination. Early-stage companies often rely on fast decisions, constant experimentation, and founders who personally handle countless responsibilities. As companies grow, however, the same approach can begin to create friction. Teams expand, operations become more complex, and expectations shift. Effective leadership styles must evolve to match the changing needs of the organization.  Scaling a company does not mean abandoning what made a founder successful. It requires refining those strengths while developing new leadership capabilities that support sustainable growth.

The Pre Slow Season Checklist: Your Roadmap to Financial Stability

By Alisa McCabe • May 13, 2026
​Every business experiences fluctuations throughout the year. Some industries see demand surge during certain seasons and decline during others. While these cycles are common, the financial pressure that arrives during slower months can feel overwhelming without preparation. Strong small business accounting plays an essential role in navigating these shifts. When owners understand their financial position and take proactive steps before revenue dips, they gain more control over how their organization performs during quieter periods.  Preparing early creates stability. A thoughtful checklist allows entrepreneurs to review expenses, strengthen cash flow planning, and position their company to remain resilient even when sales temporarily decline.
