What’s more magical then a piece of software that is over 37+ years old? Software is changing how we live our lifes. This small piece of software “WordPerfect” has been responsible for a wide range of opportunities for a wide range of people. Take for example Miss America showing you how to use the software. Not impressive enough? I was not even born yet when this happened.
The original creator of the software was Bruce Bastian a BYU grad student. The original software was created as a contract for BYU with a licensing option. The original version of the software was designed to work with DOS and later ported to windows and Unix.
Why does this matter? Bruce has a net worth of [$1.4+ billion dollars] one of the wealthiest person in the USA. With money comes great responsibility he has donated over $1,000,000USD to the cause of same sex marriage.
Not to bad for a single piece of software.
Now let’s get to the point of this. How are the sales being made? How is this company convincing you to turn around and exchange your hard earn cash for a product that can be quickly copied and delivered to you? But most importantly what are the words being used to get you to “convert” over and decide to go for the purchase.
