A lot of places are offering their services for free. many of these are helpful to entrepreneurs or people trying to better themselves. I thought I'd start a thread and share a few that I have found.

Free Ivy League Classes


Free Audible Books


Free Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre


Article Tracking Loans and Grants by various entities for various places and/or industries


Not business related, but a varied list of entertaining options


Hope this helps. Feel free to add any you find. My list is US biased, I'd love to get some help finding resources for other parts of the world.

This is an interesting development.

If you have clients in these spaces:

restaurants, nightlife, beauty and fitness, and “active life businesses.”

You might want to help them claim this free money.


I can see 15 different ways that this can lead to fraud... But at least someone is trying to help these little businesses.

Loom is a great tool and I'm on the Pro plan.

Great little video from one of the co-founders explaining why they have their improved offer:

Coursera has a lot of courses, but right now they have a few special ones:

-The Yale Happiness Course (though you can also listen to the prof's podcast on happiness on The Happiness Lab - they have special CV episodes too) can help not only through this particular time, but also in general for a more positive mindset and better reaction to challenges and crisis.

-They made a few courses free (the certificate part - auditing any course is always free) until 5/31/2020. Interesting these on career development

Edited to add: a list of free courses that can be useful to entrepreneurs

For Artists, here is a website listing a lot of resources, from legal to workplace to mental health to aid to live events.

Anyone had any experiences with Moz Academy?

I signed up for the free stuff. It's pretty in depth, but it's also focused toward using their products. They want you to use their research tools instead of telling you how to use Google or something similar.

There are several courses you can take (free). You'll see like 10 courses, but if you do 2 of them that are a series, that takes up about 6 of them that show on their own. It'll show you what you registered for and completed. After you get through the 2 series of courses, you can pick up the other couple that are on their own.

I'd say, if you can get through it while it's free, do it. The videos are relatively short.

There's a few new things available, so I'll just link this article on TechRadar which lists a lot of them. Lots of academic resources, which can be useful for exploring new business niches as well, plus software etc.
A massive list of stuff either free or giving temporary premium access for free can be found here and here (Entrepreneur .com list) - all geared to business/entrepreneurship/digital/etc.
Also, Blinkist is offering free Premium access for a few weeks - don't know if it works with new accounts (I already had the free one).

On Legal/Govt/Tax/Info side, Thomson Reuters is offering some resources too.
Headspace (meditation, mental health) is offering their premium for free for all Healthcare + Education professionals, plus info and resources for HR, workplaces, etc.
Free access to Sanvello services too (therapy, anxiety, mental health, connection).

For Game developers, Unity has made the Premium courses free for three months.

P.S. the current issue is always free online.

Tnx,

Google offering new certificates and scholarships. Sure, some may look at this and think it is a vehicle to a J.O.B. (maybe a better paying one than you currently have).


But others might use this to improve their own skillset in project management, analytics, or UX.

Fun fact, did you know Yale has a course on wellness and over 2,000,000 people have enrolled in it? Just this year?!?!

Anyways, hope this helps someone.

Another SBA backed loan program with forgivable payments. This is new and different than the extension of the PPP program.

And now West Virginia is giving people $12000 plus some other benefits to move there and work remote.

start a bidding war, who gives the most money if you move there?
Don't want to get political here with all the ways I see this as backfiring, but I'll just leave one scenario here, this automatically makes every property in W.V. worth $12,000 more than it was before this happened.
