New web portals are always looking for a new way to offer information. Tapping that one unthought-of method is the key. Some ideas work while others fade away. Ultimately, the consumer decides.
eDoorways Inc., a concept driven lifestyle entertainment problem solving web portal , remains in the development stages of design and activation. Turning the key for the sites activation is anticipated in mid-2008 predicated upon financing. Concept, however, continues to be the only way to describe the movements of the company.
The company describes the coming site as a doorway to consumers finding answers/solutions to questions and problems from a “real time” expert in a particular area of interest. Put much more plainly, the site concept is to put a live sales associate at the other end of the keyboard to answer questions and sell you a product. Revenue would be generated from the retail provider of the “real time” expert as a portion of any sales made, subscription services and advertising sales.
The company lists some fairly heady competition in the pursuit of web customers. Amazon.com is perhaps the most notable competition while other sites, that tend to rely on other revenue sources to accomplish the same proposed concept for free, include: The Home Depot, Ask.com and Craig’s List.
