Freebie-Trading Forums
There are many forums dedicated to freebie-trading. You’ll definitely want to join one or more. There’s no better resource for whatever you need for your new business. If you need information about a specific offer, more than 150,000 people are involved in freebie-trading. Between them, they’ve done all the offers, many times, and most offers have multiple posts telling you what to expect. If you’re looking for referrals, there are hundreds of people joining these forums every day, many of whom are looking for someone to help them become a referral. If you want tips on how to succeed, I’m the best teacher there is, but I’m probably not better than the other 149,999 people combined. Pretty close though. My username on the forums I’m going to recommend is ksarner, and you can contact me on any of them to get the grand tour.
CaliStyle101
I’m currently focusing a lot of my efforts here. I chose them from all the others because they have a great set of video tutorials. If you’re not quite sure how this whole thing works after reading through my website, head to CaliStyle to view the system in action. They’re really very well done. They’re also probably the fastest-growing forum, which bodes well for their future.
It’s also one of the easiest forums to find your way around it. They haven’t littered up the place with vast numbers of subforums about every single topic under the sun. That DOES mean that there’s a little bit less information to be found, but it also means that if they have the information you’re looking for, you’ve got a fighting chance to find it.

The Free Lunch Room
My other main forum is the Free Lunch Room, which is the largest forum of all. It’s a great source of information–with over 125,000 users, you can always find the information you need there. It’s not clear whether it’s the best for someone just getting started, though. Those same 125,000 users create a lot of static. It’s very hard to stand out from the crowd. It’s a great place for ME to work–I’ve got the sharpest teeth of all the sharks. But for a new person, I think there are better places to begin.
Don’t forget about it, though–there’ll come a time when you really need some obscure piece of information and I’m not online to get it for you, at which point a post in the FLR will get you ten replies in half an hour. But it’s harder to build a reputation for yourself when there are 125,000 other people in the same place trying to do the same thing.
In addition, it won’t ever cost you a cent to use any forum, but it DOES cost the sites significantly more money to advertise on the FLR than it does for them to advertise on the smaller forums. Many good sites have simply chosen not to advertise on the FLR. It’s against the rules of the FLR to trade sites which don’t advertise there, so there’s a wider selection of sites to choose from on the smaller forums. This isn’t as important as it might seem–I have many sites which you can green on the FLR. You won’t run out. But there are more to choose from on the smaller forums.
If you’d like to visit the FLR before you join, here are some useful links:

Your First Decision
Let me know what your decision is as soon as you make it. If you choose to focus on one forum, we’ll set up this trade on the forum you choose to work on. If you’re going to diversify, naturally, we’ll to rotate back and forth between the two forums. If you’d prefer not to work on ANY forum, that’s OK too. No need to decide immediately–contact me first and we’ll get you started. I’ll remind you often of the options available to you.
