While the internet industry transitions to Web 2.0, many online entrepreneurs still don't have a basic understanding of how to do business online. As an integrated approach to education, the site features the Web Business Ownership Series, providing over 20 free internet business sessions with Millionaire Business Coaches, Success Coaches, Business Strategists, Motivational Speakers, and Internet Business Professionals.
"You won't find any sugar-coated stories about instant prosperity in the Series.", says Chris Curtis, President and Founder of WBO, "The whole point of the discussions is to let the listeners hear from experts that it takes more than a digital business card to increase revenue and sales. Even in 2007, some business owners are still sold on the concept of 'If you build it, they will come'. WBO pulls them out of the dark ages and exposes the inaccuracy of that perception so they can move their businesses forward."
Participants in the Web Business Ownership Series include Millionaire Coach Willie Crawford, Joan Stewart ("The Publicity Hound"), William R. Patterson ("The Baron"), and Jill Koenig ("America's Top Goal Strategist") - just to name a few.
Aside from a star-studded list of Who's Who in the Internet Business Circles, the WBO web site offers specialized information for business owners who have no idea how to qualify and work with a web professional. "This web site is way overdue for the web business community. So many people are being taken advantage of, wasting money and time, by people who claim to be web professionals. WBO addresses that issue, and finally provides a solid reference for business owners to be able to identify the real web professionals."
In the pre-launch stages, WBO allowed public access to some content areas of the site and received high volumes of positive end-user feedback. "Public response has demonstrated that this initiative is a major contribution to the web business community. Traditionally, generic business resources haven't catered to the web business owner. Novices are already frustrated enough about learning how to do business online.", says Curtis. "WBO takes business owners by the hand and gives them the confidence and motivation to prosper and maximize their financial gain on the web. Our workshops are designed so that novices and advanced business owners can both gain from the experience."
Chris Curtis is an internet business consultant with over 12 years in the web industry, and co-host of the "Tech Talk" radio program on 900AM WURD in Philadelphia, PA.
