If you think eBooks are just for sleazy internet marketers, think
again. Nowadays, indie bloggers and craft business owners are cluing
into the benefits of creating and selling eBooks to customers around the
world.
Whether you are a jewelry designer who wants to share a
special project via paid eBook or a creative thinker who has insider
tips to help craft business owners, your knowledge should be turned into
a helpful guide that would be impossible for buyers to resist!
Here are the 3 Big Reasons you should write an eBook:1. It will Increase Your Income
Of
course, you will need to promote and market your new ebook, but once
it's out there, you're going to see an income boost for a variety of
reasons:It adds another income stream: If
you're only selling one type of product or one line of services, you'll
end up just earning one type of income. By adding an eBook, you'll be
able to earn income from another type of product, which can develop into
a whole range of new ideas and streams down the line.It's passive income:
A benefit of having an eBook on your virtual shelf is that each time
it's sold, you don't have to create the product, head to the post office
and wait weeks to find out that the customer is happy and it's been
received. The amount of time you'll save by having a product that sells
over and over again with little work once it's been written and marketed
is incredibly high.Other people can help you sell it: If you take advantage of an affiliate system like eJunkie,
you can let your friends, buyers and peers know that your product
offers a commission for anyone who sells it. Think of how many more
people your product can reach by leveraging other blogger's and
crafter's audiences.2. Buyers Love The Perks
The
perks for buyers of eBooks is wonderful. Besides getting your helpful
advice and insider knowledge, they'll be thrilled with:Free Shipping:
People love free shipping, but that's not always easy to offer when you
sell tangible goods. With an eBook, you offer a downloadable file that
costs a buyer nothing to ship.Instant Access: With Meylah's platform,
your buyer will get their eBook instantly through a download, which
will satisfy their immediate problem and give them instant access to
your work.3. Sharing Your Expertise Helps Everyone
You may think that writing and selling an eBook only helps your wallet but there's so much more to it:Providing Tips:
 You're giving incredibly valuable advice by writing an eBook, and the
price buyers pay will be worth it when they discover even just one key
piece of advice that changes the way they think about their business
problem.Building Your Brand: By putting your
valuable advice out there in eBook form, you're telling people that
you're not just a 'jewelry designer' or 'indie blogger', you're someone
with expert knowledge who can help people and build a loyal following of
fans and customers. That's brand-building right there. Need more of a
nudge?
