Divi Theme from Elegant Themes – Of course I recommend the Divi Theme from Elegant Themes for your WordPress websites and Landing Pages. The ease of use and functionality, combined with a great price, support and a great community of people.

I use the Divi Theme for almost all of my websites and landing pages. The Divi WordPress theme is the best theme you can get right now.

I include a HUGE Bonus when you use my link to purchase the Divi Theme.

Get Response Email Marketing – I have been using Get Response for a few years now and I really like how easy it is to set up an email autoresponder series. You can do a number of different segmentations and a lot of other neat features.

This is something that you really need if you are doing any kind of marketing online or trying to build a following. You are going to need email automation software and start building a list. Another great affiliate program with recurring revenue.

Bluehost Hosting – I have used several different web hosting companies over the years and I prefer Bluehost at this time. I love the ease of use to get things up and running, it is very easy for beginners to use and maintain multiple websites.

I use Bluehost myself for my websites, I wouldn’t recommend it if I didn’t use it.

Gravity Forms – Gravity forms is a great WordPress form plugin that I use on all of my websites. Lots of integrations and a lot of custom WordPress form features that you can do. I have a lot of tutorials on gravity forms that you can find on YouTube.

I use gravity forms for my checkout form for my Divi Planet course checkout and recently I incorporated the hidden one time offer to increase sales.

Fluent Forms – Another WordPress form plugin I’ve used that I would recommend as well. If for some reason you want an alternative to Gravity Forms, Fluent is great. Not as many integrations as Gravity, but right next to them for everything else and further in some instances.

Divi Supreme Pro – Making Popups with the Divi Theme is easy with the Divi Supreme Pro Plugin. Use this with Landing Page buttons to a popup email form submit. Lots of other Divi modules for different effects. This plugin is on the Divi Marketplace

Printful – Print on Demand is very popular now and I use printful for all of my POD needs. One of the things I like about them is that they integrate with WordPress very easily. The also give you templates to work from and their customer support has been good when there are any questions I have.

Canva – Online image editing software I use for quick designs when I don’t feel like opening photoshop. Lots of templates to choose from, beginner friendly and many people adding new layouts and designs everyday.

Envato Market – If you are using WordPress you have probably purchased something from the envato marketplace before. Thousands of different WordPress Plugins and Themes to choose from, my favorite from here is the Avada Theme.

TubeBuddy – YouTube is a great way to promote yourself and get some exposure. I use TubeBuddy for SEO on youTube and finding keywords. They also give some helpful links in the promotional tab and have an affiliate program that is monthly recurring.

Cover Action Pro – Ever wonder how I make those cool box designs for  sales page products. Well, I’m pulling back the curtain, it’s Cover Action Pro. These are premade actions that work with photoshop. Create the template, place your work and press play, boom, all done for you in a flash. Must have if you are making sales graphics.

Events Calendar – A WordPress Calendar plugin that allows you to do many things. This is something that clients ask for on a regular basis. I like how simple it is to use for end users and how it displays on your website, a great plugin.

Quick Page/Post Redirect Plugin – This is an awesome plugin I use to cloak my affiliate links with my site domain. Watch how to hide your affiliate links tutorial. Easy to use and setup, very valuable. Free Plugin.

Colorzilla Google Chrome Plugin – I use the colorzilla color picker on a daily basis. Pick colors on a page and copy & paste to your page, awesome plugin for Chrome. They also keep an extensive color history so you can go back and view previous colors you have used.

GoFullPage Google Chrome Plugin – I take a lot of screenshots when I get ideas and inspiration. I also use this plugin for the screenshots I use with my sales page graphics. This is the plugin I use to take those screenshots.

Gary Vaynerchuk

One of the most interested people that you could follow is Gary Vaynerchuk (or Gary Vee). He puts out a crap load of content every week and is probably the best follow on YouTube, Snap Chat and Twitter.

He has a number of NY Times best selling books and is a mastermind on social media. He now has a YouTube vlog (Daily Vee) that lets you on the inside of his daily adventures and has a weekly show (#AskGaryVee).

You can view my post on Gary Vaynerchuk here. Below are some of his books.
