Enter Voomly Voomly is perfect for content creators, digital marketers, video marketing agencies, and Ecommerce and online store builders. You can turn your video into a funnel and grab email addresses from viewers, and segment them by creating what I call a "pick your own ending" feature. It really had me going, "WHAT???" when I went to their site. The best part is you can use their 30-day trial to see if it's for you. If you like it plans start at free, or $9 and go on up. Check it out (aff...

You are on a tight budget, so you use YouTube for your video. However, now your viewers are subjected to ads, recommendations, the title at the top, and the YouTube logo. Just when you want them to take action, they get distracted and go someplace else. This is where Killer Player comes into play. It lets you remove all of those items and put your video into one of their five premade themes, AND with unlimited colors, you can have it fit your brand. Best of all, it's budget-friendly where you...

I discovered Product Lift on App Sumo and thought, "Yes, FINALLY an affordable roadmap." This is a great tool for harvesting feedback. You can get it from customers, teams, stakeholders, or in my case, a podcast audience. It makes it so easy to get feedback but also build roadmaps, publish changelogs, vote and discuss, and more. There is a free version on their site, but I recommend (while it is available) purchasing it on App Sumo. Their regular price is $48/month, and you can buy it for $49...

If you're using bit.ly and sharing those publicly, you're not doing your brand any favors. Today I introduce you to Switchy. It makes it super easy to track your links (in and out) as well as makes QR codes, and Smart Pages (think Linktree) while enabling you to place pixels, and more. As I record this, you can get Switchy on App Sumo for a one-time purchase of $39. The starting price on their website is $47/month so it's a steal. I love that you can tie a domain to it, and even the core domai...

Making your company stand out does not mean you need to write your customer's name in the sky. Sometimes it's just doing the little things that nobody else is doing. Mentioned in this episode: Loom School of Podcasting The Low Bar of Customer Service For my first job out of college, I was a copier repairman. And then later, I got into customer service, I would actually go out, set up the copy machine, and teach them how to run it. And I was amazed at how low the bar was for amazing customer se...

Wordfence is a plugin that helps stop people from hacking your site. Today I read you all the different things that it blocks.

I was looking for a tool to make a directory of websites. To make a long story short, they are very hard to find. Almost all directories are created to help you find some address so it can be a local business directory or real estate, etc. I wanted something to list websites at Podcasting Resources.com (http://www.podcastingresource.scom/) Then I remembered I had purchased a theme a while ago from PremumPress called "Responsive Directory Theme" which I don't feel is available anymore. They too h...

Your customers find it convenient to ask about your products or services. This plugin is sure to help your business with time and cost saving, yet obtain a prompt reply to visitors. And what else, from those received messages, you wi...

I've used Covideo in the past, but I had to go into my Gmail when I used it and change some settings that set off all sorts of security warnings. Their answer was to send it through their website. In the end, I ended up not using it and eventually unsubscribed. I tried creating videos in Camtasia and uploading them and sharing them on a Google Drive. That strategy was free, but it took forever. So the BIG thing that bomb bomb delivers on is speed. Their smallest package allows you to send video ...

Got a cool tool you use? SHARE IT 888-563-3228 Thanks to Daniel J Lewis of this video (http://www.themifyflow.com/) I'm Tired of Todd Gross Todd Gross is the new Nickleback. He was cool at first but over saturation is leading me to hate him. He seems to be THE GUY to promote every single marketing tools (and I understand, his job is to do voice over, and video work, but apparently he will promote anything - which I feel is bad for HIS brand). Today I play a clip from a video that is built on the...
