Let's say you already have a super idea, and the



knowledge to back it up. These are the beginnings of

a fantastic ebook. Figure out what your subject is, and then

narrow it down. Your goals are to be specific, and simple.

Research what's out there already, and try to find that "missing

link" your ebook might fill.

Information is the key. You are selling information,

any information you know about...These topics can be "how to's"

(how to clean fish) or "why's" (why brush your cat). The list is endless!

You don't have to have a degree to write

about your topic. People want advice that is easy to

read and easy to apply. For examples: parents need advice for safely

teaching their teens how to drive, or students need to

learn good study habits. It can be anything!

You may find certain topics may require a series of ebooks.

These will explain step by step information about the topic,

helping the reader piece the information together, at their own pace.

Maybe you have an Internet business. It contains a well

constructed website with an excellent product. An ebook is one

of the most powerful ways to promote your business. It

will give you and your company crediblity. It will promote you as an

authority. You'll be educating people with the knowledge you already

have as a business owner of a specific product or service.

Getting your ebook out is going to be your focus once

you've finished writing it, just as it is with print

books. People will hesitate to buy any book from an

unknown author. Wouldn't you?

The answer is simple: give it away! You will see the

profits of promoting your own business and

getting your name out. You will find affiliates who

will ask you to place their links in your ebook,

and these affiliates will in turn go out and make your

name known. Almost every single famous ebook author

has started out this way.

Another powerful tool to attract people to your ebook

is to make it interactive. Give something for them

to do in the book rather than just typing pages

full of text.

Let your readers fill out

questionnaires, forms, even crossword puzzles focussing

on their knowledge of a certain subject.

Have your readers hit a link that will allow them to

recommend your book to their friends.

Or include an actual order form so at the end your ebook

they can easily buy your product.

Ebooks are a new and powerful tool for original thinkers with fresh

ideas to share information with millions of people. Believe YOU

have something to offer. Take the next step. Write YOUR ebook!

Promote YOUR OWN business!!
