|
| Q. To operate a specific City WEB PORTAL, do I become
an employee of WebPortalsPhilippines.com? |
A. NO.
Your business relationship is a Licensee. You can form your own
company, or operate anyway you choose - your choice. As our Licensee,
we provide you access to our developed technology, systems, data
bases, individual business promotion expertise, marketing into the
web for search engines, secure transaction keys and the like. You
arrange to provide the local participating businesses that are assertively
seeking more sales, and provide the Customer Service functions to
both consumers and local participating businesses. Financially the
Licensee relationship is like a joint-venture – both make
an investment – both share operating expenses – both
share profits according to a pre-established schedule. |
|
|
| Q. Do I need high tech skills – programming of
data bases, web page design and development, etc? |
A. NO.
We provide you access to all of the above – plus a lot more.
We even provide the technology so that local businesses like Hotels
and Resorts, Night Clubs and Restaurants, Real Estate Rental and
Sales Agents can up-load their own information via the web to the
Web Portal. It’s a very efficient system.
|
|
|
| Q. Must I personally operate the local Web Portal –
or can I have someone else operate it for me? |
A. Again your choice. Managing
a cyber business is going to require anyone to be computer and web
fluent. They will need an excellent command of the universal language
of business – English. We have very,
very stringent requirements for Customer Service quality levels.
But ultimately the choice is yours. |
|
|
| Q. How much money can I make? |
A. Income potential depends on
the demographics of a specific city – how many hotels, resorts,
restaurants, night clubs, schools, medical practitioners, service
business, and the like there are. For an example, a Manila would
have a much larger business potential than would say, a Malaybalay.
Additionally since the local Licensee controls both the quantity
and participation levels of local businesses – and the attractiveness
of the area determines visitor interest - there is no rational way
to pre-determine revenue levels prior to ‘Start-Up’.
However, we will show you which industries operate on an Advertising
Model (they pay for communications space in various ways
– just like a newspaper or radio station), and those industries
that operate on a Marketing Model
(they pay lots more for an actually completed sale and/or qualified
leads). We make no representations – explicit or implicit
– as to the earnings potential of any Web Portal. |
|
|
| Q. Are there ‘start-up’ costs –
monthly operating expenses? |
A. YES.
like any business, there are both. We will provide you access
to the already developed and engineered Web Portal Modules
and Individual Page formats and graphics. You will need to
provide us the content about
and from the area businesses. Our graphic artists and programmers
will then prepare the final pages for your city’s Portal.
Several years back the trade association of web folks estimated
that overall total cost for a full-featured - functioning web
site averaged about $200 a page. Because e-businesses make
money in e-commerce activities – not paying for web
site graphics, copywriting, development and programming –
we will be underwriting a major portion of the new Web Portal’s
costs. As our licensee, your per page cost will (currently)
be $12. Means that if the total pages needed to operate the
Portal for a specific location was 300 pages, then the ‘Start-Up’
expense would be $3,600 – 200 pages = $2400 –
400 pages = $4800, and so on. |
|
|
You ‘pay
as you go’ – meaning you pay a production
retainer of $1200 which is then used to produce the
first 100 pages, and so on until the Web Portal is completed.
Once you estimate the quantity of local business you
want to participate, we will be able to closely estimate
the actual production costs. A typical ‘production
cycle’ will take 90 days from start to ‘go
live and be on the web’.
|
 |
|
Monthly Operating Expenses
consist mainly of web server hosting expenses – plus
an individual for Customer Service and your Portal’s
Accounts Receivable. Your City Web Portal will be sharing
the expense of hosting with other Portals so that expense
will be nominal (i.e. less than $50 a month depending on the
amount of participating Portals and bandwidth use –
the amount of web traffic the specific Web Portal receives).
You may also be able to make arrangements to share the expense
of administrative personnel with other Portal operators. This
is not ‘rocket scientist’ stuff.
|
|
|
| Q. Can I live in a foreign country and operate
a Portal in the Philippines? |
A. YES.
You can live and work anywhere that you have access to the
internet – preferably with a broadband connection. You
can be in contact with local participating businesses via
international telephone services which now provide unlimited
talking time to and from the Philippines for about $1 a day
(USA-Canada-United Kingdom) – and some 18 other countries
for about $2 a day. There are as many reasons to operate a
Web Portal as there are individuals. Some have well educated
– web savvy - family members living in the Philippines
and seek to supplement their income. Still others are tentatively
planning to retire and live in the Philippines in the next
2-5 years, and are looking to build a supplemental income,
or fund various trusts, etc - frequently they will be Kano/a
Filipino/a couple who can operate from their home. Some are
seeking to convert personal expenses like travel, communications,
equipment purchases, etc. into ‘business expenses’.
Some are already living in the Philippines and seek some sort
of involvement in business activities, but want a non-traditional
business without office/store hours, uniforms, inventories,
etc. And instead of becoming a new competitor to local businesses
– they seek to earn income by bringing more income to
their area’s existing business. The local companies
that you invite to participate in your area Web Portal love
it. Mean wouldn’t you love it – and you - if someone
was bringing your company more customers? |
|
|
| Q. Are there many available locations for a Web
Portal? |
A.
NO. Currently most towns and cities in the Philippines
are simply too small and/or their tourism infrastructure is
too limited to support a Web Portal. Licensees for an available
area will be reviewed and selected on a ‘first come
– first served’ basis. Production for new Licensees
will begin in September 2005 on a ‘First In –
First Out’ schedule. The development process takes approximately
90 days from start to finish and is dependent on the Licensee’s
delivery of content for the Web Portal. We’ve been providing
web based information to visitors traveling to specific areas
for some 12 years – almost ‘since the beginning
of time’ on the web. We know what’s required to
successfully develop and operate a Web Portal.
