About the Author
ОглавлениеEric Butow is the owner of Butow Communications Group (BCG) in Jackson, California. BCG offers website development, online marketing, and technical writing services. Eric is a native Californian who started working with his friend's Apple II Plus and Radio Shack TRS‐80 Model III in 1980 when he lived in Fresno, California. He learned about programming, graphic design, and desktop publishing in the Fresno PC Users Group in his professional career, and when he started BCG in 1994.
Eric has written 40 other technical books as an author, co‐author or, in one case, as a ghostwriter. Most of Eric's works were written for the general book market, but some were written for specific clients including HP and F5 Networks. Two of his books have been translated into Chinese and Italian. Eric's most recent books are Programming Interviews for Dummies (For Dummies, 2019) with John Sonmez, Ultimate Guide to Social Media Marketing (Entrepreneur Press, 2020) with Herman, Liu, Robinson, and Allton, and Instagram for Business for Dummies Second Edition (For Dummies, 2021) with Jennifer Herman and Corey Walker.
Upon his graduation from California State University, Fresno in 1996 with a master's degree in communication, Eric moved to Roseville, California, where he lived for 13 years. Eric continued to build his business and worked as a technical writer for a wide variety of businesses from startups to large companies including Intel, Wells Fargo Wachovia, TASQ Technology, Cisco Systems, and Hewlett‐Packard. Many of those clients required their technical writers to know Microsoft PowerPoint, which Eric has used since the early 1990s. From 1997–1999, during his off‐time, Eric produced 30 issues of Sacra Blue, the award‐winning monthly magazine of the Sacramento PC Users Group.
When Eric isn't working in (and on) his business or writing books, you can find him enjoying time with friends, walking around the historic Gold Rush town of Jackson, and helping his mother manage her infant and toddler daycare business.
