The power of FREE...


In today's post I am going to discuss something that's pretty cool...the power of free.

We all know about free stuff don't we.  You know that if you sign up to someone's email list, you usually get some pretty cool stuff, which is free and that's great (by the way I offer some of this radical cool free stuff too in case you were wondering) however this is not what I am talking about in my post today.

What I am talking about is how "free" is taking over business...not just internet marketing, but business as a whole.

I do however, want to give credit where credit is due.  I read a post about this on Chris Farrell's membership site where I am a member and thought...hey this is pretty cool, I think I should share this...thank you Chris.

Anyway, did you know that movie theaters are considering lowering the ticket costs for movies...yep, that's right.  How low you say?  You probably guessed it, FREE!  Movie theaters are actually considering making their movies free to get into, and just raise the heck out of the costs of the concessions...so now your $7.00 tub o' popcorn will cost like $25.00 (just guessing, but probably close).

So now if you sneak your own snacks into the theater (you would never do that right)?  You can go and watch the latest Vin Diesel flick with you and your significant other...for free!

Look at companies like Google and facebook.  You have probably heard of at least one of them right ;) they don't charge you one thin dime to use their service.

However, if you want quick, targeted traffic to your blog post or website...you can buy ads, which is how they are worth Billions...that's illions with a B.

The power of free is really starting to take over, and I think that it is something that needs to be recognized so we can all take advantage of it

Oh yeah, and get free stuff by signing up to my newsletter ;)...sorry for the plug, but I am an internet marketer after all.
