Everyone loves free stuff. Seriously — I used to work for a local radio station, and all the things that people would do for a free t-shirt continue to blow my mind.
With LeadIQ launching our own free plan (yes we know, shameless plug. You can see details below or get started here), now seems the perfect time to share some of our favorite free online sales tools. These options can help you do everything from prospecting and outreach to scheduling meetings and closing deals.
At the time this blog post was published, all of the online tools on this list had a 100% completely free tier available for you to check out, not just a free trial period. Of course, seeing how nothing in life is permanent, we’ll try to periodically update this list to make sure we’re providing you with up-to-date information.
Happy prospecting!

Zoom - Online Meetings with AI
When a product becomes the nickname for an entire generation (i.e. “Zoomers”), it’s probably worth checking out.
