That&#8217;s what this type of marketer counts on. So I don&#8217;t do that.\u00a0 To me, FREE means no strings.\u00a0 FREE means you won&#8217;t be repeatedly solicited now that they know who you are and where to find you.\u00a0 FREE means you just give them a link to the gift like I&#8217;ve done below. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When I do blog posts containing free giveaways, I always get comments from marketers who want to promote their product, like the guy who this week wanted to market his 12 cd set which contains just what my\u00a0 e-book gave for free. The weblink he included was full of high pressure marketing language for his newsletters, video seminars, online conference calls and other products.\u00a0 His is clearly the shotgun approach.<\/p>\n<p>I believe you don&#8217;t need to buy anything in order to learn to make money and to change your consciousness about dollars.\u00a0 So much is available for free online.\u00a0 These are my most popular e-books &#8211; completely free downloads, no strings attached.\u00a0 If they are followed step by step, your world will change and your life will expand in ways you never thought possible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=9501\" target=\"_blank\">The Invisible Counselors Workbook<\/a>, containing the entire chapter 14 of Napolean Hill&#8217;s Think and Grow Rich and his process for accessing inner guidance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=3833\" target=\"_blank\">A FREE Action Summary of Think and Grow Rich<\/a>, displaying in red all the actions to be performed for success.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=2856\" target=\"_blank\">Update: Think and Grow Rich script from last month fulfilled<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=8688\" target=\"_blank\">How do you attract a new source of income?
