Making Money By Writing? In The Ebook Jungle You Only Hear The LION Roar!

You write better than John Grisham. You're smarter than Stephen Hawking and you've created an Ebook that will change the world... but is it enough!

One of the best proven ways to make money online is to write an ebook and sell it via a web page. The Ebook must be well presented, simple but entertainng to read, and give relevant information that benefits the reader in a clearly defined way. There are countless Ebooks for sale and for free, ready to be downloaded. Their authors have slaved and sweated, crafting their text and passing on their wisdom with care and craftsmanship. So why don't they sell? Why are these masterpieces of educational e-manship left on their author's hard-drives un-purchased, un-downloaded and un-read?

It's a one word answer. Marketing...

You can have the best product in the world, you might have discovered the secret to eternal youth or earthly happiness or unravelled the mysteries of online abundance, but it will do you no good at all unless everybody knows about it.

It's galling to know that there are many mediocre ebooks out there on the web that sell and sell because they're effectively and constantly marketed. Whereas I'm sure there are great ebooks that will never see the light of day because their authors haven't grasped the simple truth about e-commerce: Marketing Sells Products.

Start Right...

In fact, marketing is so important than many reputable online marketeers START with a marketing campaign and create an ebook to fulfil the needs addressed and benefits promised by that campaign.

And that's absolutely fine! Before you even start to tap out your Ebook you should decide exactly what needs your work will satisfy. How could the potential reader benefit from buying the Ebook? Decide BEFORE you write your Ebook and make those satisfied needs and customer benefits the themes your marketing campaign is based on.

Spread the Word...

What do you need to do to let the world know? How do you let everyone know what needs your ebook fulfils and the benefits it gives the reader?

First, your sales page. The more information the better. Build trust, publish testimonials, give a money-back guarantee and highlight the emotional response. How will it feel to benefit from this book? How will it feel when those needs are satisfied?

Get Writing...

To drive traffic to your sales page I recommend writing articles. There are lots of ways to get visitors but writing and submitting articles to online article directories is simple and effective. Review the ebook. Write articles about the topics covered in the ebook. Tell your potential customer exactly what benefits they'll get from reading your Ebook and how it could satisfy their needs.

So... don't hide your talent!

Let everyone, particularly your potential customers, what you have to offer.
