A great way to kick your online marketing efforts into high gear is to build a collection of eBooks specific to the goals you want to reach.
Because this can become a costly endeavor, I’ve compiled a list of 49 free eBooks to amp up your collection. Sure, you might have to sacrifice a tweet or join a mailing list to download them, but trust me: these titles are worth the effort.
While there is a slight overlap in some of the content, you’ll find small gems of information to take away from each one and make your own. Enjoy!
