Traindom – Sell Your Skills

If you’ve got the know-how and the skill to launch a web-based marketing company but lack the free time, finances, or HTML skills necessary to build a business website from scratch, then Traindom is an application that might actually change your life. In as little as 10 minutes, Traindom says it can help users create their own information marketing business websites, where they can host e-courses and e-training seminars and accept paying membership from interested clients and associates online.

Whether your expertise lies in corporate communications, personal finance, or IT development, Traindom offers a simple way to capitalize on your knowledge and profit from sharing it with others online. Get started by creating a subdomain web address, then start adding content to appear on your site. Traindom lets you upload videos, text, and photos, and guides you through the development process when putting together multimedia presentations and online courses. Once you’ve added content that you think people would be willing to purchase access to, set a price and determine which types of membership plans you’d like to make available to clients. Billing and payments can be handled by PayPal, which leaves you more time to create and upload fresh content to your site.

Traindom doesn’t charge users for its services until they’ve made 10 or more sales, which means you can create your own business from scratch and incur absolutely no start-up costs until money is already coming in. For anyone with information or knowledge to share, Traindom is a fantastic application that can make creating a full-fledged business seem simple.
