Ever since, I don't want to write an ebook. I'm thinking, why write a cheap ebook, if you can make a $447 study program? Why is it better to offer a cheap ebook?
Let me give you several reasons and then I will show you an easy and cheap way to make ebooks that doesn't require writing at all! First, an ebook provides a low cost way for a prospective customer to get to know you. Many people would rather spend $27 to see if you are legit, before spending $447 and risk getting burned. An ebook gives them an opportunity to test the waters first. If they are comfortable, then they will be willing to risk more.
Second, an ebook allows you to reach a broader market. Let's be honest. You only have so many names on your email list and there are tons of people who want to become your customers; they just don't know it yet! Huge home study courses usually require complicated affiliate programs and thus, this reduces the number of people who will help you market your course.
Ebooks are small and easy to download. With the help of a company called Clickbank, you can have hundreds if not thousands of people promoting your ebook. With these small ambassadors, you can reach out to people you did not even personally send an email.
Ebooks also lead to bigger products, such as your $447 home study course. If they liked your ebook, then they will love your home study course that has step-by-step videos instead of just screen shots in a pdf file. And they will certainly love your three day workshop where you go beyond the step-by-step videos and actually show them in real time how to do whatever it is your ebook is teaching.
So what is the bad news? Who wants to sit down and grind out an ebook? Not me! So, I talk my way through an ebook. It's the easiest way to write and market an ebook. I schedule a free teleseminar, invite interested people to the teleseminar, have them send questions in advance and then record the teleseminar. I then have the recording transcribed, lightly edit the transcription and convert the whole thing to a pdf file.
The pdf is easily changed into an ebook and listed on Clickbank. You can market your ebook by sending emails and soon the money comes in. The affiliate programs, processing of the orders from customers and sending of checks are all taken care of by Clickbank. Everything is fast and easy.
What makes this a cheap way to make an ebook is you can check the demand even before you write your ebook. This takes out the risk like your $447 study program. There is also a positive cash flow which serves to fund your upcoming home study program. I'm also amassing customers from all over the world through the help of Clickbank affiliates who help advertise the ebook.
So, pick a topic and schedule a free teleseminar today. You will be creating a foundational product for your information empire and be on your way to become an ebook millionaire.
