This section has two halves. One is about the tools a small team needs to run sales, marketing and growth without overspending. The other is about discovery: the sites and lists where founders, early adopters and investors go looking for new products.
Use the tool roundups when you are choosing your own stack, and the discovery guides when you are deciding where your product should show up. Prices and plans change often, so check the vendor's site before you commit.
