Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if any of you have read Alex Eames' new eBook 'Selling Your Professional Services on the Web' yet.

Is it worth buying?

Any comments would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

It is very much worth buying!! Nov 26, 2004

Hello Sonja,

I can say with no hesitation at all that it is very much worth buying. Extremely helpful ideas easy to understand marketing strategies for success. Very interesting. I have no regrets whatsoever.
The money you spend on this is easily reaccumulated again by implementing his ideas.

If you would go to a marketing spezialist he would charge you more than double.
Go ahead buy it I will give you the money back if you do not like it.

Not quite as good as his previous ebook Nov 30, 2004

Hi Sonya,

I bought his latest ebook quite a while ago, but found really nothing *NEW* of interest.

There are a few good tips, but much more extensively presented in his previous ebook. "Selling Your Professional Services on the Web" is less translation oriented than his first book.

My opinion is that this last one is merely a collection of general web marketing tips you may find a bit everywhere on the Internet already.

Hi Sonya,

My opinion is that this last one is merely a collection of general web marketing tips you may find a bit everywhere on the Internet already.

But don't worry, should you not be satisfied, you may ask for a refund. As I was not satisfied at all with this book (unlike the former one), I asked for a refund and got it pretty quickly.

Although I think Alex has gone the wrong way with his last ebook, there is one important thing: he is a faithfull merchant and stands by his words. There is no risk for you: either you're satisfied and everything is fine or you're not and can get a refund. What more do you need?

Kind regards,
