The products below are actual products
I pay for and use to build my business.
I don’t recommend products I don’t actually use myself…
These can also be a great added passive income stream for you. Think about it. People pay for tools without even thinking about it. They just know they need to pay for them. So why not make passive income from it?
So go ahead and purchase the ones you need for your business, then add them to your marketing funnels…

Top Internet Marketing Tools (List Updated: Dec 20th 2020)
Top Sales Funnel Tool – HBA Funnel Builder
I like this tool because it allows me to create sales funnels on demand for a fraction of the cost of other page builders…
Capture pages, bridge pages, sales pages, webinars pages, membership sites and more! I pretty much use this for everything and it integrates with most autoresponder out there. Works AWESOME!

Highest Quality Autoresponder I Use – ActiveCampaign
This autoresponder is by far the best one out there I’ve used. Highest open rates in the industry, lots of automation tools and the CRM customer profile system is my favorite to use out of all the ones I’ve tried.
The only downside I’ve seen with it is as your list gets bigger it gets pretty pricey! It’s worth the money to me, but someone who is new to the industry may want to check out my secondary autoresponder to start out with below called Getresponse. When you are making a 6 figure income you can always import your leads over to ActiveCampaign when you can afford a higher priced autoresponder.

Secondary Option (Budget Friendly) – Getresponse
If you can’t afford Active Campaign, this is my budget friendly autoresponder. You 30 day free trial then up to 1,000 subscribers for only $15/month! This is perfect for 95% of people. If you need more advanced automations and things then look into the more expensive option like Active Campaign.
The affiliate program is 30%… (Pays with ACH, Check or PayPal)

Best Youtube Marketing Tool – VidIQ
This is an amazing tool if you are trying to use Youtube for marketing. One of my favorite features about it is the ability to mass edit all the descriptions of each video if you want to change out your lead magnet or offer under the video.
It also has mass tools for other things like “Cards” “End Screens” etc.
I highly recommend trying out the free version here, and upgrade to the paid version if you like it!

Webinar / Meeting Room Software – Zoom
I used GoToWebinar for many years, then I tried Zoom out a couple years ago and LOVED it. It is way less expensive then GoTo and does a lot more in my opinion.
Also the link I gave you is buying zoom through “Working Live” which gives you an Enterprise account with 500 meeting room, 500 webinar room, and unlimited cloud storage for just $12.99/month…
That is lower than their “pro” plan for only 100 guests and no cloud storage! So it’s a KILLER deal for zoom…

Screen Recorder & Video Editor – Camtasia
I use this tool to create MOST of my videos! I can record my screen and webcam at the some time, then when done edit them right inside the same software. It’s perfect for video tutorials & makes editing so much easier and fun…

Paid Video Hosting – Amazon combo with EZS3
Video hosting can get pretty pricey, so we found a solution that made it less cost. We upload our MP4 videos to Amazon S3 hosting, then use a service called EZS3 to create our video players for them. This is a great service for videos you don’t want on YouTube like videos for your online courses, or blog posts.
Things like Vimeo and Youtube are shutting down people left and right which makes this service worth it!… This is a must have for private hosting for all your videos without having to worry about if your videos will be shut down! They are my top choice for private secure video hosting outside of the free sites!

Password Vault – RoboForm
There is a FREE version of this tool that will save unlimited passwords for you, but I prefer the $1.99/month version since it syncs across all devices.
This tool has saved me so much time! Before you had to remember every username and password you ever created, and over the last 7 years I have created over 1,000 username and passwords!
WOW… So imagine if I had to remember all of those or even worse what If I used the same password for all of them? One person gets into your account they get ALL of them! Not a great idea! So RoboForm solves that! It’s a secure vault for your passwords that is not saved in your internet browser ( a whole other issue). Works great and works with all major Internet Browsers! Never forget a password again with this tool!

Do you really use dropcards?
Simon, a friend of mine. Uses drop cards and literally leaves one under car windows lol
I didnt think it would work, any results?
Do you split test each method with different capture pages to see where gets the most opt ins?
Sounds like hassle, but could be worth it to either scale up or down on which ever is/isn’t working.
Mike it is so encouraging listening to your story about where you have come from. I was deeply touched by the financial and emotional struggles you went through.

Mike screenflow only works with Mac correct. What software would you reccomend for PC beside camtasia?
Thanks Mike. I've kept falling off of my road to success horse but I always get back in the saddle again.
.
Thanks for your great teaching in the 21 day program and this blog. IT'S GREAT!!
Top man MIke easy to follow videos and great tips
Well, I used camtasia on PC when I had it… I heard there was one called screen cast o matic, but never tried it out…
I’ve used Screen-Cast-O-Matic with success previously. It’s a good free tool.
Right on. Ya I know a few people who use it. I like the paid tools mainly because they also have a good editor built in.
Wonderful Tools, Mike Hobbs. Thank you so much for sharing them with us!
hey mike I want to buy a spin rewriter from your link and get bonus. do you still with their affiliate program

Why did you stop using Trafficwave?
It was getting harder and harder to integrate with things, and I liked having the option to import leads vs everything having to be double opt in. If you dont mind the double opt ins and the importing then Trafficwave is a good option…
