Topics discussed:
(1) Business Models: The "Freemium" Model --- How does your business work when you have a free version of your product plus an upgrade version?
-For some customers, once they are "hooked", then they are an addict.
-The coupon method (instead of the free method): only about 3% of customers actually cash in on their coupons, whereas most customers love the free stuff.

Topics discussed:
(1) How do you effectively convert networking contacts into actual leads?
-Don't count on the fact that a network contact you meet or a relationship you're developing might actually turn into something worth value? Make sure that the people around you know what you're doing, and then those people will be able to pass on the word to others since they have grown to know you and your business. You should also take the time to find out about other people, and share information about their businesses in return.
