While the web is chock full of information about how we can
emulate the successes of others and become millionaires, or
never have to work for a boss again, occasionally there are
programs that really stand out. Such a program is
ezWebBusinessBuilder produced by JDD Publishing Co which I
bought and tested recently.
Why does ezWebBusinessBuilder stand out? Because it is
refreshingly different; innovative, and based on sound
educational principles. Most products simply tell you
what to do to become wealthy using strategies said to have been
uncovered by their authors while creating their own success.
This product does that too, but combines it with the EDP
instructional strategy (Explain-Demonstrate-Practise), which is
far superior. Not only that, the support resources provided at
the JDD Publishing site are excellent.
JDD Publishing's product consists of a single CD-ROM
attractively presented in a nice case. On the CD are 18 videos
that step users through the processes of researching and
identifying products to sell online, selecting a domain name and
producing a sales site, optimizing the site for search engines,
discussing eight different ways to market your products, and
much more.
Each video has a show and tell using an animated character
(dressed in a blue suit with a red tie no less!) who walks you
through the process and then disappears in a puff of smoke
(literally!). You then follow a link to a page on the JDD
Publishing site to "Perform Task from Video xx".
As the topics from Video One to Video 18 describe a linear
process, you simply follow the walk through videos in order and
then carry out the "Perform Task ..." function to implement each
step in logical sequence. It's easy to understand and very easy
to do. There's even a free web design software package thrown in
for those who haven't got one.
As is common with JDD Publishing media, it's of high quality and
works effectively and efficiently. It does get monotonous
watching the little blue-suit guy for all 18 videos, but at the
end of the day, if you want to establish an Internet presence
and make money selling your own or others' products,
ezWebBusinessBuilder will help you take a huge leap in the right
direction. In fact, it would be hard to fail if you follow this
prescription.
As an educator, I'm impressed with the instructional style,
simplicity, and excellent content that has been integrated in
this product. At less than $100 US, it's good value for money
and comparable with many other less user friendly products that
cost the same.
If you want to establish a web business or convert an existing
business to the web, all you need do, according to the CD cover
is "Simply pop this CD into your computer and build your
business on the web, step-by-step ... when you've completed all
the steps, you'll have a working, growing Internet business!" I
agree, but I've got to go now ... another site to build.
