The
Ultimate Beginner's Guide!
Product Review of:
The Ultimate Beginner's Guide!
Question: What would motivate a highly effective (not to mention
highly successful) web marketer like Marlon Sanders to produce and
deliver a beginner’s guide? More to the point--why a beginner’s
guide to computing?
After all, Marlon’s already well known for his complete collection
of Amazing Formulas for selling on the web. He’s made his reputation
from this treasury of tips and guidelines—-real-world success
strategies for automating your web business and perfecting your
Internet sales techniques. Sure, Marlon delivers the elements of his
formula in a clear, straightforward, and down-to-earth style. But
it’s detailed stuff. He assumes a certain level of computer
expertise in his audience. Not so with this beginner’s guide. It
assumes very little prior knowledge of computer know-how at all. So,
back to my original question: Why a beginner’s guide?
Then
it hit me. After navigating through the first few pages of this
easy-to-follow e-book, I got it. Marlon doesn’t want anybody to miss
out on the opportunity to make money with a computer! And he’s
carefully and logically connected the basic building blocks--the
must-have essentials--to help anyone get up and running. Right away!
Here, in a richly illustrated, step-by-step series of tutorials, the
secrets of getting started are unlocked for “newbies” everywhere.
Those who have never even been on the Internet before will find the
information valuable.
True
to form, Marlon packs a lot of punch in the pages of this book. Each
lesson smoothly unfolds in a way that builds steadily on the
previous one. Starting with the fundamentals of downloading,
storing, and retrieving files, readers are walked through the
operational mechanics of computing in a way I haven’t seen equalled
anywhere else. And there’s plenty more. The guide shows users how to
apply what they’ve learned to find, download, and install free tools
like Adobe Acrobat Reader and MP3 players for accessing the rich
abundance of media on the web.
From
there, we’re given a thorough tutorial on setting up a messaging
system for sending e-mail with file attachments. (Don’t worry.
Marlon knows this is new ground for his readers, and he takes the
time to fully explain, in plain English, the “technical” terms
associated with the operational concepts he introduces.) Before
long, we’re learning how to protect our new-found storehouse of web
information by installing anti-virus programs; we’re moving folders
and organizing our files; and we’re taking advantage of time-saving
productivity hints like copying, cutting, and pasting information
from one location to another.
The
momentum just builds and builds. By the time we reach the end of
this ultimate guide, we’re learning how to maximize our workspace by
resizing windows, how to move information from source to destination
by performing file transfers, and how to automatically launch the
programs we need to run immediately after we boot up our computer!
These are the “bread-and-butter” techniques even the most advanced
“power users” had to master when they got started.
The
refreshing thing about Marlon’s approach here is that it’s simple,
no-frills instruction. Using a vast collection of screen captures,
visual pointers, and click-and-learn steps and reminders, his
ultimate guide treats readers to a virtually error-proof tour of the
power and potential that web-based computing offers for the taking.
Beginners now have all the how-to help they need to start reaping
the harvest!
Marlon’s Ultimate Beginner’s Guide is the all-important first floor
of computer knowledge every computer user must have. Readers will
see this product as their foundation to future success on the
Internet. In no time at all, they’ll be wanting more. And Marlon’s
amazing formulas will be right there, waiting for them!
