If you are a real expert of online marketing, this article is not for you. If instead you have just started, or you need some help and advices, this article is very important.
To start working in internet marketing, you obviously need a company and much dedication to survive and grow your business day by day, month by month and year by year.
The best tools you need to get a hand in what you are doing, and to multiply your profits, are:
1 – AUTORESPONDER
Just thinking to work without an autoresponder is problematic. In my first years in business I was seriously thinking it was useless, until a few years ago I’ve decided to give it a try.
It’s impossible for good marketers to work without an autoresponder. I suggest you to create an account on Aweber. I tried almost all the autoresponders on market and I have to say this is really the best one.
Your first month will be free, and then it will cost based on how many leads do you have. A great deal.
2 – SALES PAGE CREATOR
If you aim to become a good product creator, a sales page creator and funnel builder is the best for you. I suggest you ClickFunnels, the best in its category.
I tried a lot of others, including OptimizePress, InstaPage and much, much more. But the best one is just ClickFunnels and nothing else.
Building a funnel made of different offers your visitors will see one after the other is the key to sells more and sell better. Clickfunnels is available in two plans: one for $97/month and the second for $297/month. I chosen the second because it gives you unlimited funnels. an autoresponder and the possibility to have an affiliate program, to sell more. It’s also easy to connect to JVZoo, WarriorPlus and Clickbank.
3 – GRAPHIC SOFTWARE
If you are like me, you will do everything on your own, without using freelancers. I don’t use them because they are not cheap, but especially because they know nothing about your product. I tried to get sales letters written, but the results were really poor.
That’s why I suggest you Adobe Photoshop. It is no more the untouchable software it was a few years ago. Now you can pay it $9.95 per month and get it updated. It’s also autoupdating with a lot of new features.
4 – ECOVER DESIGNER
If you also want to create your ecovers like I do, there’s an incredible tool you can grab for a one-time low price. It’s “eCover Authority“, it features countless templates you can choose, with ebooks, reports, software, DVD cases, tablets, TVs and much, much more. All you need are just a few images to upload and adjust to create your little piece of art.
This is excellent if you publish products or if you need ecovers for Kindle books.
These are the software I use on daily basis to run my business. Choose your ones, and do it wisely!
Thanks and see you, Alessandro Zamboni
