1.0 out of 5 stars NOT a book for aspiring Web Site Designers, October 27, 1998
This review is from: How to Be a Successful Internet Consultant (Paperback)
BALDERDASH.

Upon reading the first review on this page, from "A Reader," (I never trust anonymous reviews, nor those from reviewers with email addresses from HotMail, Juno, etc.), I went to my local Borders to check out this book.

It has NOTHING to do with helping a Web Site Designer to promote one's business. Not a single mention of strategies for Designers.

In addition, the book regurgitates simple, common-sense business practices (addressed to Internet *Consultants*, not Designers) that I've seen discussed a jillion times before.

For example: have a brochure, send mailings, check out what the competition is doing, read J. Conrad Levinson's books, etc., etc.

The HTML info, being over two years old, is severely out of date.

DO NOT buy this book if you are an aspiring Web Site Designer; it *ain't* directed to you.

I've given the book One Star because of its paucity of material specifically for Internet Consultants. Not much "new" here.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great read!, September 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Be a Successful Internet Consultant (Paperback)
I recently finished the book. What a great read. I zipped through it, and now keep it handy as a reference tool. I espeically found the section on fees and charging for Internet based services to be helpful.

We started in the marketing business, with a specialty in sponsorship -- the ultimate in analog communications. Having built LitLamp.com, we have developed expertise in web strategy, planning, interface with engineers, copywriting and website promotion. We are now developing plans to begin offering these services. Here at LitLamp.com your words have become a part of our daily banter.

There is so little quality information available to web entrepreneurs who are breaking new ground. More sizzle than steak. Your book came at just the right time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Trainers, Consultants and Infopreneurs !, January 11, 2002
This review is from: How to Be a Successful Internet Consultant (Paperback)
...

I read this book when it first came out.
I liked the simplicity of it. It has a good recipe for running
your website consulting firm and gives you hardcore technical information and strategy for us computer engineers alike.
I kept this as a basic reference for myself if I needed info
on HTML, VRML, Plugins, Cookies, JPEGS, UUNET and Business Planning.

Enjoy.
