Ebooks: Sell Information, Make Money
by Angela Booth
Selling information is a great way to make money online. However, there are secrets to
creating information products which sell in their thousands: let's look at three tips which will
help you.
1. You're Selling Instant Information
When you're selling information products, you're selling information which people want and
need immediately. They have a problem, and your ebook, video series or course promises
the answer.
This means that your product must be focused on what the reader is paying for.
For example, I've seen many ebooks which were allegedly focused on a specific problem
which the reader had. However when I read them, these ebooks were packed with waffle and
extraneous information which was totally useless to the reader. I wasn't surprised when I saw
that these products' refund rates were high.
For example, if your ebook promises to help the reader to solve his acne problem, ensure
that the entire ebook relates to how he can solve the problem, and not on anything else.
2. Keep It Short, Keep It Simple
No one wants to read hundreds of pages of information online, nor do they want to print out a
300 page ebook. The information you're providing should be narrowly focused; if you can
solve the reader's problem in a short ebook of five pages, then that's how long your product
should be.
There's no point in providing an avalanche of useless information just to bulk out the content,
and this relates directly to your bonuses.
If you're providing bonuses, how essential and relevant are they? Bonuses may be a good
idea, if they add value. But they're a terrible idea if they're junk, because they lower the value
of your product.
3. Focus Your Topics
Are you beginning to see a thread here? Your ebook buyer has a problem, and is counting on
you to solve that problem. No other information is needed or required, so focus on one
problem and provide the solution.
