Mariner Promo Code – August Edition

It’s that time of the month again, meaning 1st. And every month, every 1st, I give you the special, unique and exclusive mariner promo code which will give you an instant 20% discount on any Mariner products. Many of you are long time readers of my blog so I’ll just jump to the promo code first, and then get to the details. So, here you are, the mariner promo code valid for the month of August 2010 is

With this code, you should go to the Mariner eStore, stuff your shopping cart with lots of goodies and then enter the code in the designated field. Hit “update shopping cart”, and voila, all the products will magically have their prices cut with 20%.

While I was writing this I couldn’t stop thinking that this may be the longest promotion in the history of web. I mean in 3 months we’ll be making 2 years since I’m running this monthly promotion on my blog. From what I know, a few thousands of people used this promotion successfully to buy quality Mac products from Mariner and for that, folks, I’m grateful. I really am.

Just a few days ago i was writing about how to make money blogging, with a big emphasis on online reputation. This promotion is the best example of how you can run an honest blog and still make a decent amount of money while making everybody happy: the vendor (in this case a software producer), the readers (you, the ones that are making my day, each day) and me, the blogger.

One of the products that I still use on a regular basis is MacJournal, by Mariner. I use this as a core of my blogging setup, I use it to write my ebooks and I use it to create short templates for habit change. Quite versatile this product, right? Well, go read the posts in which I describe all these fancy stories about blogging and implementing new habits and if you like them, feel free to buy MacJournal. You can even drop me a line here if you did. You know, just to make my day . As you always do, anyway!

Now, just in case you didn’t read it from the first time, here’s the mariner promo code for the month of August 2010.

Mariner Promo Code – July Edition

It’s the time of the month, meaning the first day. During the first day of the month we’re releasing the corresponding Mariner Promo Code. For those of you who are here for the first time, let me tell you what this promo code is. Almost two years ago I started a promotion with Mariner, one of the oldest and most respected Apple software producers, using a special promo code each month. That promo code should be used in their estore and by using it you get an instant 20% discount for ANY software in the estore.

For those of you eager to get started, here’s the July 2010 Mariner Promo Code:

Now, let’s talk a little bit about the “why” and “how” of this promotion.

First, the “why”. I did this because I decided to completely rewrite my monetization “scripts”. I mean, I’ve been doing online business for more than 10 years and I know that advertising enough is not a sustainable way to make money form a blog. So, I created and implemented this affiliate promotion in order to support my blog. It’s that simple. Now, the interesting part is that I’m not doing this blindly, picking up affiliate deals randomly and adding them to my blog, hoping that someone will click on the link, buy and make me rich. Nope. It doesn’t work like this.

I’m advertising only products I’m using. Products that I’m satisfied with. And I’m not using only Mariner, although I have a long history of success with Mariner products. Just go ahead an read those posts (which proved to be one of the most popular blog posts too):

• Power Blogging With MacJournal, GTD Style
• How To Write An Ebook Using MacJournal
• How To Create A Habit In 15 Days

As for other products I’m using (and actively promoting), you can have a look at Scribe SEO (used to enhance my SEO factor on this very post too, by the way ) and Lumosity (they produce a very interesting series of brain games).

Right now. just a little bit about the “how”: all you have to do is to go Mariner eStore and add this promo code in the designated field. You’ll see all the prices updated with the discount. And just in case you missed the promo code for the first time, here it is again:

Exclusive 25% Discount for any Mariner Software

December brings in gifts. As of today, until the end of the month, you’ll have an exclusive 25% discount for any Mariner Software. In order to trigger this discount, you’ll have to add a special promo code to the Mariner shopping cart. Here’s the code:

boat

My long term readers already know about my partnership with Mariner Software. One of the most visited articles in my blog is one about using MacJoournal as a power blogging setup, GTD style. This post proved to be so popular that it even made it in my Blogging101 Workshop and I have to tell you that it was very well received by the workshop attendees.

Apparently, I’m reaching a milestone here: one year of monthly promo codes for good, stable and useful mac software. It’s been a very good year for me, and judging from the number of generated sales, it’s been a good year for many of my readers. If you didn’t realize it by now, I will receive a commission on each sale, so you can keep that in mind if you decide to buy.

In fact, affiliate marketing, as in honest, open and transparent affiliate marketing, was one of the most successful revenue sources in my first year of  blogging. I am always happy to review and recommend products that I find useful and valuable. I find it a very good way to make money blogging because you can chose your products and you can test them before you recommend them.

So, I don’t know what you’re doing here anymore, you should be at the Mariner eStore, buying whatever you think you’ll need: MacJournal, MacGourmet DeLuxe, Paperless, StoryMill, Write or Calc. The discount works on family packages too. Just so you remember, here’s the code again:

November Mariner Promo Code

We’re almost there. This is the last month of our year-long promotion on Mariner Software. We started last year and had each month a different, exclusive promo code which gave you an instant 15% discount to ALL Mariner products.

I said a few times, but I’ll say it again, just in case you missed it: I monetize this blog almost exclusively by promoting other products, a thing also known as affiliate marketing. I promote only things I use and find valuable (despite the increasing request queue for some “fantastic product that I’m sure your blog readers will love” that is piling up in my inbox). Promoting good, valuable and useful products is a win-win situation. In fact, is a win-win-win situation because everybody gets something: my readers get access to good stuff, the makers of that good stuff get to sell it and I get a commission out of it (in case you’re wondering what’s in it for me). One word though: these promo codes are exclusive to this blog, you won’t find them anywhere else on the Internet.

I would like to tell you more about this, but I know you’re eager to get your discount, so, without further ado, the November Mariner Promo Code:

How to Use It

Go to Mariner eStore, add this code to the designated field and start shopping.

What You Get

You get a nice piece of software, called MacJournal, which is my blogging and journaling software of choice. This very blog is created using a GTD setup created in MacJournal. My ebook was also written 90% in MacJournal (edited in Pages later). But you can also apply this code to other fine products of Mariner, including, but not limited to MacGourmet DeLuxe, StoryMill, Contour or even Write or Calc. A little birdie told me that the discount is available for bundles too

If you’re looking for the current Mariner Promo Code, you’ll find it here: Mariner Promo Code.

October Mariner Promo Code

This post will most likely be in a very good position in a potential competition for “the shortest post in this blog”. And there’s a reason for that. You already know about the year long promotion I’m doing with Mariner Software, the producer of the excellent MacJournal, my blogging and journaling application of choice. So all I’m going to do is to tell you out loud the code and give you the link for the store.

This very post is managed and edited using a powerful GTD blogging setup using MacJournal.

What This Promo Code Can Give You

The newest product from Mariner Software was just launched this summer. It’s called Paperless and it’s a fantastic piece of of software. And, best of all, the promo code is available for Paperless too.

Why is that important? Because it’s pretty rare to have an initial discount on a software that was just launched. But you, readers of eDragonu, you deserve that. You really do. Now you have access to a state of the art piece of software, so versatile that I can’t stop thinking at a new way of using every 15 minutes, yet so simple that even a college kid could use it with no prior training.

What is Paperless? Initially a receipt database, it was transformed by Mariner into a full blown digital document application. With Paperless you can scan your receipts (you can even take a photo using iSight!! how cool is that!) store them with a few attributes and then organize them in collections or smart collections. But the beauty is that you can insert in this not only receipts or scans, you can even import PDFs. Now you understand why I find a new way of using it every 15 minutes. Because the sky is the limit. You can use it to organize you software manuals, your books, your pictures (yes, it can import JPGs too) anything.

Please hurry up and grab this, and don’t forget to input the promo code, so you can get your highly unusual 15% discount.
