Ways to Use All That FREE Stuff
There is a glut of great sounding free stuff on the Net. Tons of gizmos and
systems that can help your business (or your professional life) and don't
cost a dime.
Maybe it's because I grew up in farm country, but I HATE to let anything
free go by without finding some use for it. Once software is developed, it
is extremely cheap to distribute. Because of that, there is a landslide of
free tools you can use to make your web site a cash cow.
But how do you use them?
Before you use any other free tool, get a free newsletter list manager and
use it to the max. My personal favorite is Topica.com. eGroups.com is also
outstanding. Any 10 year old can set up a newsletter. And NOTHING pulls customers
like an interesting email newsletter going out every week, every two weeks,
even every month. Fill your newsletter with articles from free
ezinearticles.com.
Make your next stop at
FreeGuestBooks.com.
Their guest books are great, but the free discussion board is even better.
A friend put one on her site, wrote a welcome note, then left for a couple
of weeks. When she got back, she was surprised to find dozens of conversations
going on hotly debating her ideas, with people asking questions and others
answering--terrific promotion for her site.
The Net can be a bit boring, but I'm not sure all the Flash slide shows we're
seeing are the answer (for most of us, they take forever to download). Consider
putting sound on your site. Go to free
GiveMeTalk.com and
record your own "radio show." It can simply be you telling customers and
prospects about your products, services, and ideas on how to better use
them.
