HOLY CRAP! Some sites and services and so perfectly in tune I could just lick them. Trello caught my eye because of their website design (GORGEOUS and SO CLEAN). Plus, their intro video is beyond perfect as a product demo. Watch and learn. Copy everything these guys are doing because they've got it all DOWN. Anyway, the funny thing is I didn't even know what Trello was (project management/collaboration tool) but since I watched the video and saw how fantastic their product is, I signed up!

Memberly helps creative people and businesses run their own subscription programs. Start and run ‘of-the-month’ clubs, quarterly art projects and more.

If you need a new pair of glasses (or know someone who does), turn them onto this site. What I like about Warby Parker is their 'Buy a Pair, Give a Pair" program; whenever you buy a pair of glasses, they donate a pair to someone in need (85,000 pairs and counting!). Love it. Watch this video, get turned on and share with your friends and family. PLEASE RATE THIS SITE: If you’re seeing this on December 23, click the ‘See Today’s Site‘ link and give it a rating from 1-10.

I just switched my list building tool to this GORGEOUS popup creator. I'm featuring this site not only because it is a great tool for list building and website marketing but also because their landing page is exceptionally tight and beautifully designed. There is no doubt what they do and, more importantly, what they want YOU to do; notice the clear, crisp headline, the use of video, and the B-O-B (bright orange button)! So, regardless of your thoughts on the use of popups for list building, fact is, they flat out work. Adding a popup reminder generally improves my signup rate by 300-500%. It's insane
