I was asked a question by an associate of mine here on apsense as to what the cooperative was, how it would help them in business, and more specifically how a free account would benefit them.

Thats what I am here to address for everyone today - How the marketers cooperative can help you in any business you are in if you join for free.

First of all let me tell you what exactly the marketers cooperative is. The cooperative is a place where business owners and professionals come together with marketers to try to bring success to everyone.

The cooperative has four types of members. First are the free members. Free members are not part of the cooperative but have access to the free parts of the members area on the website.

Second are the light service members. Our light services are traffic exchange services, banner marketing services, and some limited email services. This is intended for people who just don't have time to use exchange based marketing because they are focused on more important area's in their marketing efforts. Members supply us with banners, links, splash pages and email campaigns - we do the rest for them.

Third are the heavy service members. This includes the same this as the light services but compounds on those services for added benefits. Heavy members get more mailings than light members, get social shares and recommendations, and also get article marketing done for them. They must supply the same information as light members with the addition of articles. 

Finally are the cooperative memberships. Cooperative memberships makes one a full member of the cooperative. They get a say in all things relating to the cooperative, its partnerships, and its future direction. They also get free hosting, auto responders, updates on various websites and social networks, done for them marketing, and access to a very elite seo tool only available to our members called the magic blog.

Today however, I am not here to talk about any of the memberships except the free members of the website. I want to explain what one gets for free and why they may want to join us. 

Free members of the marketers cooperative website get access all of the following:

• Forums

At the marketers cooperative we have internet marketing forums. Now the truth is marketing forums are a dime a dozen. However our forums are different. We heavily moderate our forums to keep all bad advice out. We keep our scam businesses, we keep out blackhat marketing, and we keep out the outdated useless information. 

Aside from that we have well known industry leaders that are active in our forums. We have people who know what they are talking about and its not some guru trying to get you to spend more money with his programs. We are talking names like tony tezak (tezak traffic power owner), paula van dun (graphic designer), micah wallace (hosting and business solutions), Todd Perry and scot gardner (mysafelist biz owners), and a LOT more. We are talking people who actively make money and have been around long enough to know what they are talking about. 

These are people waiting in our forums to help you at any chance they can. 


• Training

We have a training area where we teach you the various aspects of marketing - traffic exchanges, safelists, list building, search engine optimization, and social marketing. 

The training we provide is intended to be able to be used with any business, product, or service. It is not a "system" designed to promote any given thing. 

Our training is a never ending work in progress that is created by all the cooperative partners. This means you get direct access on how to use specific marketing sites from the owners of those sites, it means the information you are learning is never out dated, and it means the information will actually help you!


• Hangouts

Although our forums are the main means of communication and interaction at the cooperative you also have access to our hangouts. These are realtime audio, video, and text chats that can be used for private one on one training as well as a secondary means of communication with other members.


• Scam free business listing

We have a list of scam free businesses that we have done extensive research on to ensure they are legitimate businesses. We don't list every business in the world on this list. Joining businesses on the list in no way benefits the cooperative or the owner of the cooperative.

Businesses on the scam free business listing have met very specific criteria. They always pay and they pay on time. This means that you will be paid if you are owed money and you will never find they were shut down as a scam. 

Whether or not you profit from any business in the scam free business listing is entirely determined upon your own abilities and we make no claims or guarantees of success.


• Group Social Wall

We are not a social network but we used a special comment system to give our members a group social wall. This can be used to make announcements, interact with others, or whatever else you see fit. All replies to your post are nested in a very easy to read fashion.

This social wall can only be viewed by other members of the cooperative. It is not public. 


• Free marketing sites
  
  
Free members also get access to our list of free marketing websites and resources as put together from our partners. All partners who have a free marketing site get listed.

By using our list of free marketing sites, we can assure  you will get traffic to your sites, leads to your lists, and hopefully sales to your products and services. 

The marketers cooperative has been in the making for well over a year. Tools have been developed that never before existed. We have brought marketers together that never thought of working together before. We are bringing unheard of discounts to our members. We are bringing members marketing methods they have never before considered - for example we have put our paid members in contact with an internet radio station to get them all live on air interviews.

There is no limit we are not going to and no area of marketing we are not trying to work with. We want everyone involved with this cooperative. We know working together is the fastest way to success and we are bringing both the tools and the people together to make it all possible. 

I you are reading this, we at the cooperative would be honored to have you join us and we are sure you will make many new friends in the business world. 

So please click here if this sounds interesting and join for free to today!
