Resource Rolodex
On this page you will find my Resource Rolodex with all kinds of vendors, services, professionals and software; I update that a few times a year.
If you look through this list don’t quite find what you’re looking for, please message me from my contact page what you’re looking for. The majority of these sites linked below I do have an affiliate relationship with, meaning I could earn a commission from you signing up with them or using their services through my links. However I would recommend most of them anyway even if this were not the case.
I do not recommend services that I do not trust or believe in however some are more appropriate than others depending on where you are in your business at this time. *I do provide short comments and notes under each one below, so READ those. And I’m happy to consult with anyone on such technology investments and options if you reach out!
You can also find a 90 minute training that I did about Choosing Your Technology, for just $27 here!

Aweber
Email marketing and autoresponder software that’s easy to use. Top notch email deliverability and free expert support services online or by phone but this does NOT have shopping cart capability.

CRM++ This software handles workflows and campaigns to run email marketing follow ups from free opt ins and paid programs. I also use it to send email newsletters and solo emails. It’s very easy to use and manage and integrates with ThriveCart easily.
Constant Contact
This is the program I used to use to send out all my ezines and announcements. They have great reporting statistics, survey capabilities, some light autoresponder capabilities but are limited with what you can do in designing your opt in box through them and I do not recommend their shopping cart component at this time.
