The Don and Penny Show

In my last blog I mentioned one of my favorite skills training calls. It is the Thursday afternoon call given by Don Standard and Penny Dude. For me this is the greatest and most beneficial call I can listen to. Don and Penny provide information on many different avenues to advertise a persons business or product at little or no cost. They tell you what new things people are using to advertise and they actually go over the programs or sites to show an inexperienced person how to use them. I can get around on the computer okay in certain programs but it seems the sites and programs I am good at aren't the ones that will help me advertise my MentoringForFree sites. (Photoshop and illustrator are just not good for advertising any kind of thing.)

From listening on these calls I have been finding there are a lot of people just like me. They are trying to do business on the internet and just do not know how to get around on the sites. They only know the very basics of maneuvering around the computer in general.
Both Don Standard and Penny Dude are both very knowledgeable in the programs and sites that they instruct us newbies on. They are very diligent and meticulous about the information they are giving. Many time They will do a step by step process to help us get a new advertising site up and running. I personally really appreciate their patience and understanding. Many times Don will repeat (2 or 3 times) what he has just gone through in order to help one of us who can't quite grasp the concept we are talking about or got lost on the previous page and can't figure out how to advance to the page everyone else is on. Many times there is a lot of information to cover, and I can hear the frustration in Don's voice when we aren't quite moving as fast as he had planned on. Penny is always very helpful in these situations. She seems to intuitively know what it is that is causing the hang up with the rest of us and helps to redirect the lesson a little so that those of us that are struggling can grasp the information a little better.

Don and Penny make a fantastic team. I have learned so much during their calls. In fact if I have to work on Thursday afternoons, their recorded call is the first one I will listen to when I have a few minutes to sit at the computer.

For any one who is new or struggling with learning the computer, I highly recommend everyone give these calls a listen. You will definitely learn new things!
