How I’m Using Stan (From the GaryVee Challenge) to Simplify My Tech Stack and Monetize Smarter
About this episode
The right tool can take you further, faster. The wrong one? It’ll slow you down, frustrate you, and sometimes keep you from showing up at all.
But here’s the truth—it’s not always about the wrong tool. Sometimes we overcomplicate things. Other times, we simply outgrow tools that served us really well in the beginning but don’t quite fit where we are now. That doesn’t mean they were wrong—it just means they were right for a season.
In this episode of Gab Sessions with Stephanie Marie, aka Gabbie, I’m sharing why your tech stack matters, how I’m personally setting up Stan as part of the GaryVee Challenge, and why tech should evolve with you as your business grows.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
- Why tech is about fit, not perfection
- How overcomplication and outgrowing tools happen naturally
- My step-by-step plan for setting up Stan in my own business
- The importance of simplifying your stack so it serves you now
- A practical way to audit your own tech today
