I have a bible stored in the above directory and would like to open it from a link on my website. It's currently asking the viewer if they would like to run or save this. I'd like for it to automatically open when the link is clicked on. I built the site using WebPlus10x2. I tried adding a html attachment and embedding. Can you please tell me how to accomplish opening without running? Thank you.

i'm thoroughly convinced that the OP is not trolling, and seriously has this technical issue which must be resolved before his match tonight.

guys. please.

Put your right hand on C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WIN\Desktop\obituaryprogram.com\TheWord\theword.exe and repeat after me.

I firmly believe that the OP, like the rest of us, has been trained since birth to be acutely aware of social position and perceived slights. I am also aware that it is in our evolutionary DNA to identify and neutralize perceived threats in order to maintain our position, but can't we just turn down the sensitivity button, so the rest of us can have a good time?

I realize this thread is about Dana Bible, which I know a lot about. Hear me out, maybe I can offer some insight.

I am in outside sales, which is currently salary+commission, but will move into straight commission starting at the beginning of July 2011. I have been in this position since July 2009. I have competition from several direct manufacturing sales reps, large distributors, and local distributors. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of each:

Direct Advantages: Immediate knowledge of new technology, no middle man mark up, one shipping bill (paid by manufacturer or buyer of goods), access to larger range of non-commodity items, control inventory, have access to many distributors that can effectively sell their goods which increases market share, and set prices of commodity they manufacture.

Direct disadvantages: Typically have 1-3 sales reps per region (i.e. southeast, mid-atlantic, northeast, etc.) limiting the number of accounts they can successfully manage/cold-call, lack physical customer service or physical technical service available to or affordable for smaller users or altogether, are sometimes not trustworthy because they will go in behind their distributors that sell their commodity to one account in large quantities (i.e. they missed a big account, and have found out about it through a distributor selling their particular product) which leads to the distributor not selling their product anymore, have too many distributors selling the product ultimately driving the set price down through deviations, possibly rely on distributors to actually sell the product, and competition from other direct sources.

Large distributor advantages: have access to other commodities that go hand in hand with other manufacturers (poor example- grocery stores sell milk as well as cereal), get direct pricing, many locations regionally or nationally easing the shipping burden of buyers with multiple locations, personal service either customer or technical, many sales reps that are able to cover a broader territory, access to multiple manufacturers of the same commodity allowing to keep prices in check, service programs that smaller companies can't offer and direct providers can't match in price or value, and experts of many many commodities as opposed to one or a few.

Large distributor disadvantages: smaller local distributors creating price wars (think Michael Scott Paper Co vs Dunder-Mifflin), direct mfg's going in behind and stealing business, limited access to all of the mfg's (you won't find Harris Teeter name brands in Food Lion and visa versa), can't truly set prices because it's based on both supply and demand, territory management, and tough growth prospects in slower economies (this is true for direct as well really)

Local distributor advantages: Typically a good ol' boy setting where the seller and the buyer know each other for years (this does happen at all levels, but mostly at the local level), local folks are right down the street and can be used in emergencies, if the local guy buys at high enough volumes then there is no shipping charge to the end user, and access to both direct mfg's and large distributors.

Local distributor disadvantages: easily beaten in price, array of commodities, array of technology, lack of trained staff, low cash flow, etc etc etc.

This is what I have noticed in my six months, I am sure there are plenty more that need mentioning. The way I am setting myself apart as a sales person is this: I go after the big accounts right now while I am new. The big accounts, if I land them, will take care of me while I am new and building a customer base. The money made off of those allows me to focus free time on smaller accounts that get me higher margins. I build up big accounts, I would like to have 5-10 of these, then get 20-30 medium accounts. If I lose 1 or 2 big accounts, the 20-30 medium accounts keep me afloat while I go after new big accounts. I don't really waste time on small accounts simply because they basically pay for breakfast or something really small.

I will say this, if you can't get a big account in the first 6-8 months (assuming you have cash flow that you can ride this long) you could be in a world of trouble. If you can get one, it will really make going after the others a lot more enjoyable and less stressful. It's simply just very exhausting wasting any time on anything other than big accounts in the very beginning. You work just as hard on the medium sized accounts and see 1/3 to 1/36 of the money in my situation.

If you have any other questions, you can PM me. I hope this helps in the slightest!

So which one of the above contact methods is best to reach you at to help you out?

11/23/2010 8:12:00 PM

In order to link to something on a website, it must be hosted on a server at some IP address or registered domain name (which then resolves to an IP address); if you're lazy you can get an account at http://www.dyndns.com/ or http://www.no-ip.com/ and set up a local web server on your computer (like XAMPP) and put The Word in the "htdocs" or "public_html" directory, or if you're not so lazy you can use an FTP program to send The Word to your website

but either way you'll still have the problem that Web browsers don't understand .exe files; for the most part they understand Internet media types like "text/html" and "text/plain" and "text/css" but pretty much any executable is "application/octet-stream" which is almost always just downloaded to be opened on your computer. Also unless "theword.exe" is all that was in the "TheWord" directory, your visitors won't even be able to use it unless they can download everything else, so you would need to zip up that whole directory, put that on your site, and tell people to download and unzip and that's a pain.


If you have a set of HTML files or a Web app that outputs them, you can put it up on your site, or if you like one of the many e-Bibles on the Internets, just link to that; Bible Gateway and Oremus are good resources.
If you have a PDF you can upload that and people with Adobe Reader or something similar can read it; a good one is http://www.allsaintstupelo.com/Bible_NRSV.pdf or for those who don't want to launch Reader, https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://www.allsaintstupelo.com/Bible_NRSV.pdf

11/23/2010 8:15:12 PM

Thanks. I decided to link http://www.justbible.com/.
