Favorite links for free (or close to free) tools
Besides moving my weekly sharing of favorite links from Sunday to Monday this week, I'm also making a slight change in that I'm going to focus on free (or almost free) trial sites tonight.
Accelerated Wealth-Building Videos
My decision to focus on trial offers tonight comes from a short-term offer I just found out about this weekend. Videos from Internet marketing pioneer Cory Rudl's last major speaking engagement before his death have been made available for a $2.95, 30-day trial.
Wait a minute, these are videos. Couldn't people watch them for 30 days and then send them back and get all those advanced internet marketing tips for only $2.95? Yep, and I'm sure a few people will.
But I think it says a lot for how jam packed these videos are with powerful tips Corey never shared before. Think of how confident his friend and business partner, Derek Gehl, is that he's willing to bet that people trying out these videos will find them so indispensible that they won't want to part with them after the 30 days. That's got to be pretty powerful stuff to inspire that kind of confidence. But you can get this trial offer only through August 15, 2005.
1Shopping Cart
Here's another almost free trial. 1Shopping Cart is my favorite shopping cart program because you can do so much with it. You can use it as a shopping cart, ad tracking tool, autoresponder system, ezine publishing system, affiliate tracking tool and so much more. I call it the Swiss army knife of shopping cart programs.
The people at 1Shopping Cart offer a 30-day trial for $3.95 in which you can use all those powerful features. Obviously, they hope you'll sign up to keep using them after the trial. And there's a good chance you will. I've been using it for years and I'm still finding new things I can do with it to help both my business and my client's businesses.
Newbie Club
OK, enough of the almost free stuff. Here's one that doesn't charge a cent and doesn't even have a trial period. Internet marketer Joe Robson came up with a brilliant idea: create a site for people who are new to Internet marketing, new to the Internet, maybe are even new to those computer thingies they have in their homes.
His site requires that you sign up to get in, but contains lots of free tutorials and tips (as well as some quality products) for anyone looking get control of that computer that keeps doing strange and mysterious things, as well as anyone building their first online business. I especially love his collection of downloadable inspirational ebooks written by some of the old print marketing masters that he's updated for the computer age.
Starting Your Internet Business Right
Another great free ebook comes from one of the experts of finding products for online businesses, Chris Malta. He's spent years researching wholesale suppliers online and shares his knowledge of how to avoid the scammers and go directly to the source of wholesale products online.
Chris also offers a free sneak peek at the first three chapters of his new ebook (Understanding the Internet for Business).
I hope you enjoy some of these free (or almost free) tools and trials.
