Ebook Review: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, A QuickStart Guide
In this review we’re going to look at an ebook from Christine Giri from Time Tamer Consulting. Why? There are a lot of social media gurus selling ebooks so we wanted to check out what’s out there and see if we can recommend one or two for our members – this is our first and we hope to have more on the way! Aside: we’ll only take the time needed to write up a review if we find the resource is worthwhile so you won’t find many 1 and 2 star reviews here. (If you have written a good social media ebook and would like us to review it, please contact us here.)
Ebook Review: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, A QuickStart Guide
There are 2 versions of the ebook available:
- Facebook, Twitter & LinkedIn: A Quick-Start Guide for Entrepreneurs
- Facebook, Twitter & LinkedIn: A Quick-Start Guide for Virtual Assistants
Both retail for USD $24.99. We reviewed the Entrepreneur version, which is 65 page PDF (5.7MB) download.
In this ebook, Giri concentrates on introducing the key tools around the big three of social media; Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn and provides a systematized approach to using them. (more…)
Case Study: Portfolio Site Review
This review was prompted by a request by David Crowley for feedback on his website. (Note this website was built with Dreamweaver and not WordPress).
Firstly, your architectural woodwork looks truly excellent, but it’s on your website you want constructive feedback, so here we go….
THE BASICS: A good website, should have a professional appearance, your business name and and contact details, all good there. Most importantly it should have clear calls to action, primary and secondary. This one is a little trickier. When I viewed the site I wasn’t sure if I was meant to view or download a brochure, or call you. The brochure wasn’t downloadable but all the work was viewable. Contact you it is then!
Since I was looking to download the brochure why not let me? Wrap it up in a simple pdf, and make it a complimentary gift. That way people can have something to take away with them as well as a positive impression of you as generous while at the same time you can put in all your sales message with the images of your beautiful work. If they stepped into a bespoke furniture store, they’d expect to be able to take a brochure away with them, so why not do the same?
