Email Marketing
MailChimp
– Free up to up to 2,000 subscribers and 12,000 emails per month.
– I don’t love the interface but great to start here if don’t want to pay.
Aweber
– I tried it for about 2 weeks before I switched to ConvertKit. Good for simple campaigns.
– 501(c)(3) Nonprofits get 3 months free, and 25% discount thereafter.
– Students with valid .edu or .ac email address get 20% off monthly billing.
ConvertKit
– More robust than MailChimp and Aweber but not as (overwhelmingly) complex as Infusionsoft.
– First month free with this link. Pat Flynn uses them.
Infusionsoft
– We use this in my tutoring company.
– Pricey, but worth it when you are ready.
– Complicated, so be ready to jump in and learn or hire a pro to really leverage all it is capable of.
Active Campaign
– What I’m using now for my podcasting and Amazon Best Seller projects.
– Cheaper and easier than Infusionsoft.
Podcasts I like:
– Tim Ferriss Show
– The Gary Vee Audio Experience
– Smart Passive Income with Pat Flynn
– Online Marketing Made Easy with Amy Porterfield
– 60 Seconds of Solitude (quick, easy, daily meditation practice) with Melissa Sue Tucker
– The Food Heals Podcast with Allison Melody and Suzy Hardy

Podcasting — Equipment & Software

– Heil PR-40 Dynamic Studio Recording Microphone (higher end: $327)
– Zoom H5n (great for in-person at conferences $269.99 for bundle)
Basic Editing:
– Audacity (editing software – free)
– BossJockStudio (app for your iOS device – no PC required)
Hosting:
– Libsyn (what I use – $5/month and up)
– BuzzSprout (what we use for LTG podcast – $0-$24 /month)
Photos and Photo Editing

I wrote this list because I was tired of wasting time searching for free + no attribution pics.
– BigStockPhoto.com

Their pics are really amazing and there are an endless supply! Worth the price for a subscription if you use photos often.

Easy and free (if you don’t use their $1 each pics) photo editing.
All online. Remembers your past creations.
– PicMonkey
Photo editing.
Lots of features to edit pics (more than Canva) but doesn’t save your past creations unless you upgrade.
