Most of you know how I have learned from Ali Brown for the last several years (and I recently joined her $3000/year Marketing Mastery Program, so I continue to invest in her knowledge).
She has just released the recording of her Online Success Blueprint workshop that was held in November 2007. I bought last year’s recording [...]

Question:
Jeff Herring (The Article Guy) says we should have quality “freebies”. What do you consider quality freebies? I have posters, menus, CDs, lessons, units, etc. I think it’s neat the way you just surprise us in the mail with something special – I would appreciate advice on how when that is most appropriate.

I would like to suggest, not a book but a series of podcasts from Stanford University on iTunes U. Their entrepreneurship speaker series is excellent. I have listened to the series several times, what is so wonderful about this is that a) it is free and b) you can download the series to your iPod [...]
