Today, I “Stumbled” upon another service that offers a very reasonable auto-delivery download services, It’s called Fastwagon. For only $8 a month, you can sell your digital content online and have the service automatically send a link to the buy for download. Take a look! == http://fastwagon.com/features
Business Case for iPad2
Posted by: | Comments
The iPad2
After months of researching, reviewing, contemplating and yes drooling…I finally purchased my iPad2 16MB WiFi. It was a difficult investment for me to make because I’m a PC girl. I already have a smart phone, a Kindle, a laptop, an iPod and a desktop computer. What on earth would I do with yet another device? Especially after I agreed to my husband that I would be more “unplugged” from work. But the darn thing is just too cool to not get it. Actually, I did make a really good business case for it.
PostEgram for Facebook
Posted by: | Comments
I love to share new finds of products and services to make your life easier, and this product is one of them. PostEgram takes your Facebook posts (and those of other select friends) and creates a full color 12-page magazine that is mailed out to a family member. I have family members who are not on Facebook but I still want to share with them what’s happening in my life so I subscribe to PostEgram and the full-color magazine is sent twice a month.

I Love WordPress
Posted by: | CommentsI was on a phone with one of my 1-to-1 consulting members and she was considering going from a paid blogging platform to a free one. I recommended using WordPress as I’m a big fan. As a demonstrator, you can also use Stampin’ Up! DBWS blog platform for free, however, I find the user-interface a bit challenging for those of us who are blogging more than weekly. If you are just doing a weekly blog- please do use DBWS. Else, I recommend WordPress and then linking it to your DBWS blog.

iPad/MailChimp Tip from Catherine Harwood
Posted by: | CommentsHere’s what one of my newsletters (SUN) Members has to say about using her iPad at workshops.
“I’m using my iPad and a great free app from Mail Chimp to have people subscribe right at my events — awesome way to build your list with interested people. Mail Chimp users who have iPads should download that app!!”
Using Your iPad for Business Productivity, Part 1
Posted by: | CommentsThanks to my friends, I started to get the “need” for purchasing an iPad. Way back when I was younger, my friends called me the Gadget Geek, because I had to have every new gadget on the market. This was especially true when it came to anything remotely computer based. I’m older and I hope wiser now. I never purchase a first release of anything Microsoft sells, waiting until SP3. I only carry one electronic device with me at one time, either the kindle or my phone. So the last thing I wanted to do was jump into purchasing an iPad. So I did some research.
The Clutterbugs’ Guide to an Organized Christmas
Posted by: | CommentsI ff0000;">LOVE this guide. I have to admit for a few years I was really dreading Christmas. The hassles, the shopping, the commercialism, the “too-much-to-do” lists. All that changed when I meet Carmen Coker and she introduced me to The Clutterbugs’ Guide to an Organized Christmas. Everything – I do mean everything – you need to have a smooth and worry-free holiday season is in this book. Carmen offers a no-nonsense approach to enjoying the holidays with family and friends. Since it is a guide, you can use it over and over again each year. In fact, I haven’t implemented all Carmen’s ideas yet but I do plan to add another tip or idea each year as I go along. I’ve even considered purchasing this as a gift each time I see my friends or neighbors overwhelmed and tired. It’s Christmas! There should be joy and laughter, right? If you would like to see small excerpt and get a 15% off coupon, just contact me. I’ll be happy to share it with you as this is the best thing FOR cutting the crazy out of Christmas.

aWeber

I don’t have any experience with aWeber but I know a colleague that does so I asked her to write this review. So this is what she wrote.
