People are always asking me about the business end of my work and website. I am an information junkie and love to share resources.
The web shopping cart/autoresponder service I use is:
Web Marketing Magic (1shoppingcart.com private label); below is my affiliate link. I get a little money if you decide to use it. There is a $3.95 month-long trial available. They provide tutorials to learn to set it up and use it. It is very comprehensive, providing an integrated system for autoresponders, shopping cart, newsletter and digital product storage sales and fulfillment.

Audio transcription service I recommend. You cna use them to do your blog posts, case notes, ebooks, etc by just speaking them. They are based in the US and can transcribe an hour of audio for about $15-20 USD within a few hours. You can dictate it over the phone or send them a digital audio file. They'll send it to you as a Word file:

Edirol R-09 Digital Recorder
I love this little digital recorder. It has great sound and features one-touch recording (easy to use for even non-techies and technopeasants). After recording, you just plug it into your computer and drag the digital audio file (.wav or .MP3) to your desktop. From there you can edit it or put it on a website or turn it into a digital, downloadable audio product or file. I recommend you get a 2GB digital storage card with it, as the one they give you is only 64MB and fills quickly. Click the link below. Again, this a referral I get a small fee in commission for.
Buy Edirol R-09 recorder at Amazon.com
Zoom H2 Digital recorder
Similar to the above but a little less expensive. I haven't used it but it looks great. Get the H4, with extra bells and whistles, if it looks more like what you need. Click the link below. Again, this a referral I get a small fee in commission for.

Great teleseminar service; you can even record the call for no cost and let people hear it later or download it for your own use as a product, bonus or get it transcribed and turn it into an e-book. They allow you to create web pages to market the telecalls, as well as let people participate in the calls over the web as an option instead of being on the phone. And they automatically record the calls and give you the option of downloading the recordings and/or letting people listen to replays of the calls.
