Ebooks relieve pain: offer solutions and make money

January 28th, 2008    Subscribe To Our Feed

You’re a new ebook author and you want to make money - preferably a lot of money.

Here’s the secret: you must offer a solution to a problem people have. Offer solutions, and you can make money writing and selling ebooks.

Start with yourself - what challenges have you overcome?

You’ve had challenges, and you’ve overcome them - EVERYONE HAS.

For example, perhaps you were overweight and you successfully lost weight. Or you child was bullied in school, and you put a stop to it. Or your child had allergies and you found a solution.

Problems are universal. Everyone has problems - even people who are blessed with looks, money, and opportunities galore have problems.

Problems mean pain, and people will happily pay for pain relief. So when you’re writing ebooks, you need to target PROBLEMS and SOLUTIONS.

Want to develop a six-figure writing income?

The September 2007 issue of The Writer had a great story: “Secrets Of The Six-Figure Freelancers”. The story’s wonderful because it shows you the potential of a freelance writing career; with the development of the Web and its unlimited markets, if you can write, you can make a great income as a freelance writer.
I chuckled when I read the story because many writers think a “six figure income” is hype. Either that, or they think that a great income is reserved for copywriters, or genre novelists, or other specialist writers.
The fact is that YOU can develop a six-figure writing career: you just need to know that it’s possible to earn $250,000 a year and more as a freelance writer, and then make that your goal.
And of course, you need know-how. That’s what my writing ebook manuals give you. In 30 years as a freelance writer, I’ve learned the tricks of the writing trade, and I’d love to share those tricks with you, so many of my ebooks offer free coaching. Whatever your level of experience as a freelance writer, you can develop a fantastic career, when you know how.

Unlike print books, which are upwards of 200 pages, ebooks are short. Most range from 30 to 70 pages. Because they’re meant to be read on a computer, buyers prefer their ebooks short, and information-packed.

How To Sell Your Ebooks - Sell To Marketers, Or Sell Your Ebooks To Readers

You’ve got two choices when it comes to selling your ebooks. You can sell them to publishers, or directly to buyers.

If you opt to sell to a publisher, then the ebook is effectively ghost-written - the marketer will put his name on your ebook. However, although you don’t get fame for an ebook you sell to someone else, you do get fortune. You can paid whatever price you ask, which makes a nice chunk of change for you to add to your bank account. Publishers are constantly looking for people to write ebooks, so create a Web site to offer your ebook writing services.
