Good product -- questionable marketing. Be forewarned:
an animated character begins talking to you immediately once
the site loads. If you're in an office and don't want your cube
neighbors to know you're job searching, have your computer
volume turned low or be ready to click the animated head to
stop the diatribe. If you're at home, or someplace where a
talking animated head won't raise eyebrows, let the little
character have his say. He offers up a pretty good
tip.
The brainchild of one Jimmy Sweeney, a professional copy
writer and direct response marketer, this product promotes
itself as applying those "proven trade secrets" to create
powerful resumes.
The Step-By-Step:
Purchase the product and immediately download
the program onto your computer. Open the application and
follow the onscreen instructions to 1) select the type of
resume you want to create, and 2) "tailor" the resume from the
template on your computer screen. The program automatically
interfaces with MS Word, making changes and tweaks easy for
those already familiar with Word.
Here's what we liked:
- It's risk free. Try the product for
56 days. If not completely satisfied, drop Mr.
Sweeney an email stating that you'd like your money
back, for whatever reason, and it will be
done.
- Build as many resumes--or variations of a
resume--as you like. You've bought the software, nothing
else to purchase.
- Three free downloadable ebook gifts with
purchase: "Top 3 Award-Winning Resume Cover Letter
Templates, plus "Amazing Job Interview Success," and "The
'Big 3' Salary Negotiation Secrets!"
- No fluff. The program (and the free ebooks) are
packed with spot-on advice and--at times--brilliant help in
marketing yourself in simple, logical and innovative
ways.
- Lifetime free product updates.
Here's what we didn't like:
- That dang talking head with no [pause]
button. Ah well.
In summary, Amazing Resume Creator is a good
product with a unique twist on run-of-the-mill resume builders.
Mr. Sweeney's background in direct response marketing proves
itself a significant strength in resume writing. It makes
sense. A resume is, after all, a fiercely competitive marketing
campaign played out on a single page or two of paper.
While we long for some of the features offered with our top
pick, Pongo Resume, this product
remains a reasonable value. With an iron-clad
money-back guarantee of satisfaction, you have nothing to
lose if you want to give t a try.
