Hey! 👋🏼 It's Gio and this is Ultimate Tools - the newsletter that helps you discover the best digital marketing tools on the market every week.

I'm breaking tradition by sending this edition on a Monday instead of our usual Friday delivery. Why the change? Well, I’m pretty sure last Friday your inbox was flooded with promotional emails. You didn’t really need another one, am I right?

Now, I'll be honest – I was determined to keep this edition Black Friday-free, but then I stumbled upon some mind-blowing deals on the tools that make our marketing hearts skip a beat.

So, here we are, not only with our beloved 3 Ultimate Tools of the Week but also with a page featuring handpicked deals that'll make your marketing dreams come true without breaking the bank.

Don't say I didn't warn you – these discounts are too good to ignore.

Let’s dive in! 🔥

Partner with Ultimate Tools and reach over 20,000+ digital entrepreneurs, marketers & tech enthusiasts. Starting from only $160. Book now.

Breaking the Social Media Prism: How to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing

“Exposing people to views of the other side did not make participants more moderate. If anything, it reinforced their preexisting views.”

In a highly polarized society, social media is perhaps the most common echo chamber for our political discourses: by surrounding ourselves with like-minded people, it’s easy for us to get "stuck" in a single-minded worldview. In a surprising journey of discovery of the most extreme social media profiles, Chris Bail sheds light on this little-known reality, explaining possible ways to try to break the "social media prism" once and for all.
