I absolutely love to hear about other people that have realized their dreams, sucked it up and put their dreams into action writing their own ebook or book…
Sure, writing ebooks takes time.
Yes, writing your own ebook takes some thought and some research
And yes, there is a learning curve to turning your idea or dream into an ebook or book with your name on it that ends up in people’s hands.
However, when you really commit to turning your idea into action for 30-60 minutes each day and get your ebook to market you will feel satisfaction, excitement and delight that cannot be explained by most.Â
Ebook writing involves 3 very distinct phases:
1. Picking an ebook topic and angle which is closely aligned with choosing a target market and purpose, problem or desire within that marketplace. Choosing your market is not only critical to the level of demand for your ebook, but will also make a big difference on your ability to finish and market your writing.Â
2. Product development…which involves outlining, researching and developing the content for your ebook. Some people write everything, others dictate and translate their dictation into text while still others look to outsourcing, freelancers or public domain for some or all of the content for their ebook or book.Â
3. Marketing your ebook is where many people fall on their face. It is one thing to create an ebook around a hot topic, and then quickly write that ebook so it is ready to sell..but how well your ebook sells or gets distributed has everything to do with how well you market it. Marketing involves everything from design and packaging of your ebook, getting setup with ebook directories and retail distribution, website and blog design, content development, SEO for web content, publicity and PR, social networking and more….
The great news is that each phase of writing ebooks is now completely within reach for ANYONE who wants to share information with the world – at InfoMarketer’sZone we see amazing examples of completely untrained, new people packaging information into ebooks and books that go on to sell like crazy.Â
