Michelle-Marie Heinemann, the influential New York socialite and CEO of Old Fashioned Mom LLC, unveils the digital tools she relies on to excel in today’s competitive landscape.
Exploding Topics tops her list as an essential tool for trend forecasting. “Being ahead of trends is vital for maintaining a competitive edge,” she says. “Exploding Topics offers early insights into emerging trends, allowing us to plan and adapt proactively.” With a range of subscription options, it caters to various business needs and scales.
Another indispensable app for Ms. Heinemann is Teamworks, especially valuable for managing her children’s sports activities. “Teamworks efficiently organizes schedules and enhances communication between athletes, coaches, and support staff,” she explains. “It features scheduling, messaging, and task management tools.” Given that her children, Hudson and Hyacinth Heinemann, are students at the prestigious IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, this app is crucial for managing their athletic schedules.
For financial management, Ms. Heinemann turns to Simply Wise, an iPhone app that simplifies expense tracking. “Simply Wise offers powerful tools for scanning receipts, categorizing expenses, and tracking mileage,” she notes. The app also aids in optimizing tax refunds and creating IRS-compliant reports, making it a comprehensive financial tool.
Ms. Heinemann asserts that “leveraging these digital tools is key to enhancing efficiency and managing both business and personal responsibilities.” Her global lifestyle, spanning New York, Italy, and Longboat Key, Florida, underscores how effective use of technology can drive success across multiple facets of life.
