What marks out the best training manuals and home study courses from the so-so or below average, and can you quickly spot the difference? It's an important question because with the wrong sort of help we can waste a huge amount of time, and maybe money as well, and might lose heart altogether.
<br />
<br />
It's a sad fact that many people who start a home business never see it through to success. But with the right kind of help they would have a much better chance.
<br />
<br />
THE SORT OF HELP WE NEED
<br />
<br />
To build a serious long term business online nowadays we need the highest quality training manuals or home study courses, possibly backed up by videos. We need clear, step-by-step instructions with plenty of detail to avoid ambiguity and confusion. And the instructions need to be complete, with no gaps where the author has glossed over something by assuming knowledge or technical expertise.
<br />
<br />
We also need to be shown how to carry out technical tasks, not just told what to do but shown how to do it. That will mean screenshots to demonstrate procedures, and diagrams to explain the text.
<br />
<br />
THE SORT OF TRAINER WE NEED
<br />
<br />
Obviously we need trainers to teach us who are well qualified for the job, people who have their own established record of success in actually doing what they are teaching. Not someone who has just latched onto it as a new sales opportunity.
<br />
<br />
Having a committed following of satisfied customers is also evidence of approval, backed up no doubt by numerous testimonies (of the genuine variety -- full names given, and often photos).
<br />
<br />
The ideal trainer will also be the best of teachers -- painstaking and careful in explaining each step, and truly committed to helping each student succeed. That also means offering ongoing help and support, and not just a refund guarantee.
<br />
<br />
SO HOW CAN WE SPOT THIS QUALITY OF TEACHING AND HELP?
<br />
<br />
Sales pages are likely to be impressive whatever the quality of the actual product, but sometimes you hear of someone's good reputation in advance. Ultimately you can only tell by taking the plunge and buying the manual or home study course for yourself and starting to go through it.
<br />
<br />
Look for clear step-by-step instructions, with plenty of detail and no assumptions made of the reader's knowledge or technical expertise. Look carefully to see if you can spot any obvious gaps.
<br />
<br />
And look for 'how to' explanations with screenshots and diagrams, rather than just empty 'what to do' directions.
<br />
<br />
Then see what support the author offers, and how keen he or she seems to be to help.
<br />
<br />
If any of these qualities are clearly lacking then you might do well to return the goods and look elsewhere for the resources you require. But if you can find the sort of high quality guide that we've described in the points above then that should be all the help you need.
