Get 20% off their annual plan right now through November 30, 2019 with coupon code SOTHANKFUL. If you're considering ramping up your list building for qualified leads – GET THIS TOOL!
Deadline Funnel
Need to create some urgency in your sales funnels? You need Deadline Funnel. This is another super powerful tool as you can fully integrate with Ontraport (and other systems). Deadline funnel lets you put in your special offer sales page URL, set the time limit for the offer, and setup where the redirect should go to after the offer expires (like your full price sales page). They also give you special code for your emails for the links AND embed timer code. You can do Evergreen, Fixed Date offers, and Hybrid – a mix of both. I tell you, this system works SO well, sometimes clients call me up and say “I can't get to the special offer page” – because the the Deadline Funnel is working so well. LOL! Don't worry, there's a way to clear your cookies on your computer so you can see the special offer pages from inside Deadline Funnels. This holiday season, Deadline Funnel is extending its normal 14-day free trial to a full 42-day FREE TRIAL. Insane! Grab this deal here.
Divi Theme from ElegantThemes.com
I build with the Divi theme from ElegantThemes.com. In fact, I even have a course about doing just that. I'm pretty much a fangirl. ElegantThemes.com is hosting a HUGE giveaway on Black Friday. Not only will there be discounts on their themes, but they are also giving away $1,000,000 worth of prizes, including a Mac Book Pro and a TON of WordPress related tools. To get the skinny, you have to join the party here.
LifterLMS
Considering making a course in 2020 and you don't have Ontraport? Grab this awesome deal from LifterLMS to build out your course on your website. Use coupon code BLACKFRIDAY19 to get the biggest savings before Black Friday – November 22 – November 28 you can get a 20% discount and then November 29 – December 2 the discount is 15%. LifterLMS works really well with Divi theme from elegantthemes.com and can hook up with a variety of email providers. It's my favorite learning management system for anyone on a budget.
EasyWebinar

They offer both Live and Evergreen style webinars, integrate easily with Ontraport and other CRMs, and have an easy to embed registration widget (so you can build your own WordPress webpages if you want to go beyond their templates).

AppSumo
AppSumo is one of my secret weapons, and I check it once a week for amazing deals on software. Most of the deals are Lifetime, so it means you pay once and have access to the software or tool for life. No renewal fees. I've picked up discounts on DepositPhotos, tools for social media management, productivity/to-do list apps, SEO tools, BeLive tv, social proof apps, Facebook bots apps, and so much more. The Black Friday sale will be unveiled on November 29, so check the site to see what the five secret deals are!
Happy Thanksgiving!
