This week flew by so fast for me. Did it for you too?  This post will be a little shorter than the past 2 weeks.  Shall we get right to it?

This is my new weekly blog series, with a collection of favorite finds I’ve discovered throughout the week & things I’ve shared in social media. Most often they’ll be free, or on some kind of crazy special deal / time limit.

Update

In the midst of a super busy week I decided to add an extra thing to my “to do list” and brought back something I started last year.  12 Days of Christmas!  It’s a contest where I’ll be giving away a prize every day until Christmas (and testing out the Contest Plugin I bought this summer). Be sure to check it out. There are some amazing prizes.

My newest post on Lifehack was crowd sourced by a whole lot of Bschoolers a few weeks ago.  It was so much fun to put together & even more fun to share on social media last night, when it went live. Go check it out?

Free Fun Downloads / Tools

I love quizes. I love taking them & creating them (although, they can be time consuming).  I don’t often find one as easy to navigate as this one. Check it out for yourself.

And this is where I learned about the quiz tool! Taking the Brandality Quiz  (p.s. I’m pretty sure mine is “girl next door”)

WP Simple Split – a new WordPress plugin that I can’t wait to try out this week ($17)

I’m most interested in these features:

• multi-theme functionality (people often ask if it’s possible to have more than one theme on a wordpress site. Now I can say “yes”)
• split testing & tracking (there are other tools for this, but I’m intrigued by their approach)
• buy button testing
• the exit redirect & timer are a nice option too

KinstantDashboard – a marketing tool for Kindle book publishers

Last week I asked Rachel Rofe if I could take a peak at the backend of Kinstant Dashboard & she graciously said yes. Because of my crazy week I didn’t get a chance to peak at it until last night. I sure wish I had more time to play with it. And even more, I wish I had my own books to upload and test. Soon, soon!  In the meantime, I was able to answer a couple of questions … take a look here at the video & leave me a comment if you’d like me to dig any further? Take a look and see if it’s right for you.  The price is really awesome!

• get more reviews
• increase downloads on promotional days
• quick connection to Facebook groups where you can promote your books
• manage ALL of your Kindle books in one dashboard
• impressive keyword optimization
• and more at KinstantDashboard

Things I’m testing this week:

• WP Simple Split – I’m hoping to test this with the contest I’m running.
• Kinstant Dashboard
• Gumroads newest features (drip-feed subscription, pre-orders, streaming video… so much to check out)
