In my first article, I shared why you must create information products instead of books sold in a bookstore. Since this is new to many business owners, info products appear to be an extraordinary way to make money online. Today, I want to give you the most amazing tips for creating information products.
Tip 1: Consider what your customers are giving, and what they expect in return.
Your customer is spending his hard-earned money on your information product. Make it worth his while! Wouldn't you trade, say, $47 for information that would help you make $4700 a day? Of course, you would that's a great deal!
Your customer would probably trade $47 for information which clearly explains how to do something, saving them two days of frustration. On the other hand, they probably don't want to spend $47 on cute stories about my children or recipes for chicken. Offer them something of value - give them a real deal!
Tip 2: Tell the Customer HOW Your Product Will Help Them.
How will your information product benefit your customers? Tell them how it will help them to:
make people money?
perform tasks faster and more efficiently
save people time?
prevent mental, physical, or emotional distress
Tell your customers exactly how your product will help them in ways they can understand, and your sales will soar!
Tip 3: Turn One E-Book into Many Parts
Break your current info products into smaller sections, then sell them all together. Sound crazy? It's not! Your client is spending $47 - would he rather get one e-book, or a series of three e-books? Give him three books, and he will feel as though he got more bang for his buck. What a great value!
Tip 4: Include Bonus Material to Make the Package More Attractive
OK, so you have an information product ready. Now go out and look for a few similar products that you can offer as bonuses. Now your customer is getting a $47 e-book plus $500 in bonuses which he can download and read at his leisure. These bonuses don't cost you anything, and they are easily delivered. Plus, you gather even more email addresses for your growing list - after all, you need their email to send them the bonus material!
Tip 5: Sell to Existing Clients First
Online business owners are like cows many times. We always think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. We are always looking for NEW customers when our best customers are the ones that have already demonstrated their loyalty by buying our product!
So, start with a niche. Ask that niche what they want. And then start creating information products that satisfy the itch they are ALREADY telling you they have. It is a blast and you will achieve expert status in your niche in no time at all!
