Your first project for 2008

Creating your eBook part 1

Do not be afraid of what is ahead of you! If you are interested in creating your own product then please read on.

Why create and eBook?

eBooks are cheap to create and also a very powerful tool. They allow you to upsell higher priced products, special offers, promote mailing lists, websites and affiliate products, and also provide people with a great source of information, which if you wish you can grant resell rights to others to create more revenue for you. Providing a good source of information is vital to a good eBook. Why would you buy a higher priced product from an eBook if the eBook itself did not convince you of success? Imagine, reading an eBook with great content and excellent sources of information. I would buy the higher priced product if it interested me, or resell the eBook as it is such a good product, or even promote it in one of my eBooks, which I have done many times. Imagine this was your eBook. Well it can be!

There are certain factors which you think may stop you writing your eBook:

1, I do not know what to write about

2, I have no confidence

3, I have no knowledge

4, I have not got the time

These are simply examples of excuses which I come across on a day to day basis. The answers to these questions are simple:

1, research your topic or use your existing knowledge

2, confidence is a state of mind. Gain confidence by researching and writing and never give up

3, research other products and the ways other guys do it

4, make time! A few hours a week will do it. Instead of watching television, try writing an eBook or researching a product or topic?

The fact is we can all create an eBook, sell it and make money.

So what’s first?

Research your product or your chosen topic. This could be an interest a business or simply something you want to learn about.

Just because you are writing an eBook, it does not have to be about making money or internet marketing to actually make money. It can be about anything you like. The truth is, the internet is a huge place, so there is no shortage of markets for you to trade in.

Plus there is no shortage of affiliate links you can add to your eBook from the most popular and best selling websites (we will discuss affiliate links in the next newsletter).

Do a search for your subject on Google and see for yourself what products are selling and what info and research you can find about your chosen subject.

Check out eBay, the Information – Everything else section is the best place to look for best selling eBooks. Watch the listings and check out the sellers and see what is selling well. Look for a gap or untouched niche in the information product section. Maybe you will find the next great idea. You never know what’s around the corner!

Once you have your chosen niche, it’s time to get to work writing. Give yourself time to structure your eBook and find a good layout which you are happy with. If you do not have a word program you can use www.openoffice.org this is a free office program.

There should be enough here to get on with, until the next newsletter.

Thank you for reading,

Kind regards,

Daniel Sumner
