I want to write an EBook. The buzz in writing circles these days is all about self-publishing eBooks. They hear that eBooks are giving authors that added income in between getting their print books published, but they have lots of questions before taking that first step. "How do I make one?" "What do I write about?" "Does anyone even buy eBooks?" Actually, putting together an eBook is simple. You write about something you are familiar, put it in a .puff or .exe file and voila, instant eBook that you can sell off your website and make a few dollars, or even thousands of dollars depending on your promotional efforts, and you're all set. Authors and entrepreneurs are doing this all the time and there's no reason why you can't either. The first step is determining what you want to write about, of course, and what your goal is for writing your eBook. In 2004, I became published in print format for the first time. It was for an anthology of soul mate stories. The main reason I wanted to put this book together was because I had a goal in mind. I wanted to show people who have given up on soul mates that they did indeed exist. After it was published, I started a marketing campaign. I had heard that eBooks were all the rage and that you could make some pretty decent money off of them, so I gave it a try. I started on another book on relationships, but while waiting on this book to be finished (which was taking an incredible amount of time due to research), I decided to try my hand at writing an eBook and selling it off of my website for added income while I waited on my print book projects to be finished. This eBook was also centered on the soul mate relationship, which I felt would add to my expertise and would help sell my print books. It worked. Even though I only had the eBook up on my website and just a few online storefronts, the orders were coming in. However, I became disillusioned because I didn't just want to sell a few copies; I wanted to sell hundreds or perhaps more. I developed a plan. Not only did I list it with any website that would announce my book, write up press releases and send them to every free press release service out there, and a myriad of other places, but I decided I'd write another eBook and give it away free to all those who bought my paying eBook. This eBook was shorter, but to the point. After I became successful using this promotional device to sell my paying eBook, I found this experience very rewarding and learned quite a few things in the process: 1.) You do not need a publisher to publish your book. 2.) Self-published eBooks DO sell and create that added income while you're waiting for your print books to sell. 3.) Writing eBooks help give you expert status. 4.) Your eBooks are 100% profit. 5.) The more you promote and make you and your eBook visible, the more income you will make. Writing eBooks and selling them yourself without the middleman - the publisher - is a great way to make money. Turn that "starving writer" moniker into "successful writer" and start cranking out those eBooks. Once you start, you'll wonder why you never thought of this great way of bringing added income into your household before!

The most important advantage of selling resale rights products in your home business is that they allow you to save that most precious of commodities, your time.

Spending too a lots of time trying to sell your Ebooks on EBay, instead of sourcing fresh products, or finding new ways to make money can ruin your business. After a few years of mediocre sales you might just want to stop selling altogether and find a new business to get involved with. This isn’t the solution you should be seeking; actually there are many ways to make your eBay business selling Ebooks skyrocket in overall productivity. Pitch original products as much as possible to boost your daily Ebook sales on EBay. The most popular Ebooks on EBay are ones that are unique in content, and offer users some new and exciting information they can in reality use for their own benefit. Think about what Ebooks will offer your customers the most advantage, and then purchase them for resale. The more you offer the customer, the improved your daily sales will be. Make your listings a preview of your product each and every time you sell Ebooks on eBay. The major problem with most e-book listings is that they don’t offer customers enough information about the product they are purchasing. This isn’t to say that most EBay Ebook listings don’t have a lot of words in them, but rather they don’t have enough real information about the product for sale. Most EBay Ebook ads are full of jibber jabber sales jargon that relates to the product in almost no fashion whatsoever. Instead what you want to do is list as much information about your Ebook as probable, and any other info that would cut through the formal jabber and get to the point. Track your sales and make adjustments on items that are not selling well. If you have 10 Ebooks for sale on average, make notes about what products are selling, and what ones are not. If an Ebook is not selling after adding all the information about it possible, and featuring it several times, it is fair to say that it needs to be dropped. Don’t look at dropping an Ebook from your EBay sales inventory as failure, look at it as a business choice that makes plenty of sense. Spend money to make money is a motto that works as well on EBay as anywhere else. What can you spend money on to improve your EBay Ebook listings? Try adding a listing template to spice up your graphics, enter in a few bonuses for the purchaser of your listing, and buy a few email lists to promote your listings. Spending money if done smart, can definitely make you money in the end.

Ebooks are part of the new frontier of cyberspace. They are an entirely new medium for sharing marketing information, ideas, techniques, and expert knowledge.

It's obvious why electronic self-publishing has become so popular so quickly.

Junk. There’s a lot of it out there, and you had better be prepared to fall over your fair share of it if you intend to do any kind of business online. That’s not to say that there aren’t also nuggets of gold out there but you’ll have to go to the end of a lot of rainbows to find them. The key to building any kind of successful business online always has been and always will be information. The reason the internet has taken off the way it has is because it allows anybody from anywhere to access information about what interests them and whether you are buying a new TV or subscribing to a newsletter what you want is the best information available to help you make the right decision. This is no secret, and it is the reason why information products have been a big growth industry for the online gurus. At anywhere from $27 to $197+, you can buy this ‘How To…’ guide or that ‘…Secrets Revealed’ e-book and truth be told some of these are invaluable in what they can offer but sadly some are just junk. It is really important, in terms of securing your own success, that you take these products for what they are and never put all of your eggs in one e-books basket. So how do you know if what you’re being sold is information gold or just junkyard scrap? Firstly not every quality piece of information is for sale. There is tons of great, free advice available. You may think that no one would really give away high quality info for free but you’d be wrong. In fact many people use exactly that method to establish themselves as leaders in their fields and encourage you to visit their sites. Testimonials are great and can give you an insight into what the literature has helped other people to do but remember, nobody is going to put a bad review of their product on their site so the best thing for you to read is actually an excerpt from the book. Some authors will actually circulate a page or 2 of their work to encourage new readers. If you can’t find anything then you can always just ask and if their work is as great as they say it is then they should have no reason not to show you a page or 2. Once you have purchased/downloaded the e-book make sure it does what it says it does. The content of the book should be exactly what the title and sub-headings claims it will be. If you find it going off on a different tangent then it’s a safe bet that the information will lead you off in different directions too. Lastly pay close attention to the little things like punctuation and grammar. It may not seem important but think about it: If a person hasn’t taken the time to make sure that their work is professionally presented what else might they not have been bothered to do? In the multi-national world wide web there will always be some discrepancies for example the differences between UK-English and American-English spellings, but other than that there really is no reason why the work should be sub-par. If you are ever in doubt about the advice you’re receiving don’t be afraid to ask for clarification. Check with people you know, ask in the forums even email the author of the book and ask them for more information. If you’re still not sure then follow your instincts, put the book down and move on to the next rainbow.
