To many people starting out, the decision to write an ebook is based on a false sense of how you will gain your fame and fortune.
When I first started out my goal was to live out my dream of becoming a best-selling published author. After 8-years of developing courses, workshops, reports and coaching programs for other companies, I was intent on writing a manuscript and shopping it around to various publishers.
What many people do not understand is that the chances of being published are incredibly small – and the chance of ever earning anything substantial from royalties is even smaller.
At the same time, the pressure I put on myself trying to write a mass market business book was huge – so huge that I could hardly stay motivated and kept “starting over” because whatever I did would never be good enough.
After a discouraging afternoon of “starting over” and with the help of Corey Rudl’s “Insider’s Secrets To Marketing Your Business On the Internet” it suddenly hit me, the wealthy entrepreneurs who publish their own books, ebook and other infoproducts didn’t make all their money from the ebooks, they simply used their ebooks as the foundation – the starting point to building their own information product marketing empire.
As I caught onto the business model, the fear and concern over writing the perfect literary masterpiece vanished – suddenly the floodgates opened and my product was done in a matter of days.
