Robert Middleton, Action Plan Marketing, has impressed me over and over with his insight and knowledge of marketing as well as the things he has to offer (both paid and free) on his site.
By far the biggest plus to his site is the free 24 page Marketing Plan Workbook. This was valuable in helping me determine my target market, my competitive advantage and help me nail my audio logo down. The Marketing Plan Workbook comes with a few extras including the first chapter of his InfoGuru Manual (also another great product of Mr. Middleton's) as well as an audio program of "How to get more attention every time you talk about your business" and you can subscribe to Robert Middleton's More Clients Newsletter. This newsletter comes out every Tuesday and I can honestly say that I look forward to it and glean much information from it every time I receive it.

As stated before, the InfoGuru Manual is also packed with information in creating or buttoning down your marketing plan. I purchased this book a few months ago and have been amazed with what I've learned. It can be used as a self-guided course or as a reference book. The manual is available in PDF or hardcopy and additional audio courses can be purchased as well. To be taken directly to the InfoGuru information page, click here!
Robert Middleton also offers a Web Site Tool Kit. While I haven't purchased it yet (the operative word there being yet) I can't wait to get it. The other products he's offered have been great and a tremendous asset to my business. I'm sure this will be no different! And the price is quite attractive as well at only $39! Visit the informational page about the Web Site Tool Kit, download a chapter from the program, and hear 20 minutes of the audio!
