WSI Launches Wealth Creation Opportunity for Developers
Toronto, Canada, July 24, 2002 --(PR.com)-- “WSI capitalizes on the best of two different software development models to capture global market share”
Two of the greatest software development stories in history were championed by two very different men, using two very different approaches. By harnessing the power of the free enterprise system, Bill Gates created the largest software development company in the world and took his seat at the head of the table as the world’s richest man. Yet with the resources of the world's largest software development company, Microsoft, under his control, Bill Gates and the rest of the world watched in amazement as Linus Torvalds created Linux; what many believed to be the greatest computer operating system the world has ever known. What makes the Linux story even more astounding is that Linus Torvalds did this without any investment capital, no shareholders and without any employees. Torvalds had a vision of creating a new and better operating system that provided an alternative to what many developers saw as the big business, self appointed leader, Windows. Through an open standards software development model, Torvalds harnessed the power of the world’s software developers, all working for free as a virtual software community.
Now WSI, an International Internet Consulting and Education firm is taking a page out of both Gates and Torvalds play book. WSI has established itself as the world’s leading Internet Services Franchise whose systems are used by over 700 franchisees in 87 countries around the world. Rated the #1 Internet Services Franchise in the world by Entrepreneur Magazine, WSI has announced the launch of its e-Marketplace Approved Product (e-MAP) development framework. E-Maps allows independent software and web developers to develop innovative products and web services and earn a royalty on the sale of these products and web services throughout the world.
“The e-MAP initiative has been developed to add value to all of our stake holders, including Internet Consultants, Production Partners and their clients,” said Louis Zalany, WSI’s Chief Executive Officer. “We are harnessing the power of the independent software development community around the world in the same way that Linus Torvalds did; but by cutting each of these software and web service developers in on the action in our global network, they can also profit tremendously. Imagine if all the developers who contributed to the development of Linux received a small royalty on every installation. It’s win win win all around!”
The new products developed through WSI’s e-MAP initiative will be available through WSI Internet Consultants around the world. This will expand the profitability of each WSI Internet Consultant’s business while adding value to their offering for end clients.
If you would like to submit an idea for a new product or technology that you would like to be considered for distribution in WSI's e-Marketplace please email emap@wsicorporate.com
