Next up was the last lab of the day entitled “The hottest FREE Sourcing Tools Available” by me. So below is a list of the tools I showed with links to them:

DataScraper- for scraping information

JustClipIt- another clipping or scraping tool

LeadIQ – a combo tool that scrapes profile and will find contact info

LEX- scrapes Linkedin Search results

Simple Seek, and Sales Search,– for xray searching

Tidy Bookmarks- for quick easy finding and access to your bookamrks

Search-preview allows you to see your google results without clicking on the link

Those were the biggies.
