What online newsletters aka ezines are worth reading? I like newsletters that provide valuable information, resources and do-it-now action tips. I unsubscribe quickly from newsletters that continually try to push their products or services on me. Since I spend a great deal of time online, I print the newsletters and read offline later. However, stats show that the majority of people DO read online. Here are the top five newsletters that I read faithfully. I will often share information and resources from them with our clients.
Barbara Winter’s Joyfully Jobless News
www.joyfullyjobless.com
Her ezines are written from a truly entrepreneurial heart. They are filled with resources and inspiration for anyone who has their own business or is aspiring to have one. She is a brilliant, fabulous writer. Barbara also publishes a printed newsletter that is just terrific at www.barbarawinter.com/winning-ways.html I have been a subscriber and solid fan for two decades.
Jeffrey Gitomer’s Sales Caffeine
www.gitomer.com
If you’ve got a website, you are in sales. His no-nonsense, direct approach is worth reading every week. He has a special link at the bottom for the Printable Version and I love this! If you ever get the chance to see him in person – GO! His presentations are entertaining and educational.
Jill Whalen’s High Rankings Advisor
www.highrankings.com
Common-sense logic for search engine strategies. Have a question? Search through the forums for answers to about everything you can think of regarding search engines. Her SEO philosophy is what we also believe in and recommend to our clients. She is a genius and really knows her stuff!
Joan Stewart’s The Publicity Hound
www.thepublicityhound.com
This ezine is packed with creative ideas and useful information. Her tips, tricks and tools for free publicity really work. I particularly enjoy reading the “Help this Hound” section where you can submit a query for other businesses to give you advice on how to promote your product or service. You’ll find a wealth of products at her website to help you with every area of publicity no matter what your industry. I am a rabid fan of the Publicity Hound!
John Kremer’s Book Marketing Tips
www.johnkremer.com
For all authors or those wannabe authors – this ezine has a plethora of information for you. He lists bookstores that want to know about your books and how to contact them. His marketing ideas are priceless!
And of course, I must mention that the Muse News – our own monthly ezine is filled with great resources, web marketing ideas and inspiration. We’re in our 11th year of publishing this ezine. Peruse the archives and subscribe here: http://www.thewebmuse.com/muse-news.html
