E-Commerce Book Coming Soon

[alert]

June 16, 2012 UPDATE: Please view the draft content page here.

April 21, 2012 UPDATE: I’ve started a general outline which will make the entire book into 3 parts: The local e-commerce overview; The e-commerce website; Making it work in T&T. Within that framework are sub-headings with each further comprising their own topics. When I’m satisfied with the outline which is basically the entire skeleton then I’ll begin to write but the writing is the easy part, the hardest part is organizing the structure so the book will be comprehensive and meaningful.

If you send your questions asap I’ll appreciate it. I plan to post the outline to solicit further feedback and to be a teaser for what’s in store.

You’ve twisted my arm and I’m hearing your cries, Trini’s want to get the real scoop on local e-commerce. The truth is that I never expected my first article on starting an e-commerce website in Trinidad & Tobago to reach to a Part 4 and I want to head off any chance of the series running away and developing into something I never intended. So I’ve decided to stop it there and do it right by assimilating the entire series into a comprehensive book, yes book— and totally re-writing it from the ground up just for you!

I believe there’s real potential for local e-commerce in the years to come and there isn’t a single website in this country that is doing it right. I don’t care who you think the top dog is right now I stand by my statement NOBODY is doing it right. This means that there is ample room for someone like you to step up to the crease.

I write this now to invite your feedback on this very topic and open the floor for any burning questions you may have so that I won’t leave anything out. Please feel free to contact me via my contact form.

About the Author

admin

I am Zaf Rahaman, owner of Forward Multimedia, a Trinidad based website design company now in its 10th year. Through my experience acquired on the ground since 2011, I’ve become known as one of the foremost authorities in E-Commerce, especially as it pertains to Trinidad & Tobago.

I began writing blog articles on various topics after observing the lack of online information about local E-Commerce. These articles quickly propelled the Forward Multimedia to the number one position on Google for all major industry keywords, a position consistently held for the past few years without challenge.

In 2018 I was an invited panelist in the annual Trinidad and Tobago Internet Governance Forum. Also in 2018 I was an invited speaker for the launch of the Virtual Caribbean DNS Entrepreneurship Center (VDECC) an initiative of ICANN- the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the international body that that coordinates the Domain Name System (DNS) worldwide.

I was also a stakeholder consultant for the Ministry of Trade & Industry’s National E-Commerce Policy which was passed in December 2018, with many of my recommendations making it to the final policy.

Most of all, I love to write AND love to write on everything website and E-Commerce related to help business owners in Trinidad & Tobago get the most out of their online presence.

ALL articles and pages on my site are written by me, in my voice, from the ground up, and for you, from a Trini perspective, using local examples and applications.
