Ezine List Delivery Service

Aweber is the email list service that I use to send out my newsletter, Enlightened marketing. I have tried several newsletter list delivery services over the years, and this is by far the best. It has a lot of great features that other services don't offer and a great reputation. You can sign up for a 30-day trial free by clicking here

If you are looking for some help developing or marketing your ezine, an excellent resource is, Boost Your Business With Your Own Ezine. I have used this resource and have found it to be invaluable. It is one of the most popular ezine resources on the web and covers every topic related to having a successful ezine. The website sales page is a bit "hyped", but the product is excellent.

Audio Acrobat is the easiest and most cost effective audio recording method I have ever used. You can record via your computer or through your telephone. Once the audio files are complete you simply log into your account and access them. You can then post them to your website, blog or emails. Even technophobes will find it easy to use!

Online Computer Back-up

I love using Mozy to back up my computer online. I can't believe how many therapists and healers do not back up their data. I have had several clients whose computers have crashed and they lost all their data because they hadn't backed-up! And even if you do back-up on disc or on an external hard drive, that won't help you if your computer and external hard-drive are stolen or happen to be in a fire.

Mozy backs up all your data online automatically. Once it's up and running you don't even have to think about backing up anymore. Mozy is easy to set up and very affordable. They even have a free version if you have less than 2GB of data. Sign-up for Mozy and secure your data. Not backing up your computer online is like not having home insurance.
