Making Money With Information Products - Why Having An Ebook And Traffic Is Not Enough To Succeed!

Do you want to make money online with eBook marketing?

The problem is that to be successful online, you need more than an eBook and traffic to your sales page. I remember when I started, I thought that sending people to my eBook would make me a lot of money. Don't get me, I made thousands of dollars. However, my business didn't take off as I expected.

I started to learn more and invested in my online business. A couple of months later, I found that I didn't have a proper sales funnel, and that was the thing that didn't allow me to grow my business fast, although I was making sales from my products.

So what do you need to make a second online paycheck on the Internet?

You need to have a good front end product, and capture your visitors and buyers' email addresses. The next step is to drive traffic to your eBook and start making sales. After a hundred sales or so, you will know your visitor value, and you will be able to recruit affiliates to promote your product and increase your profits. They will send a lot of traffic and sales your way, so you need to be prepared and have a good customer service in place to avoid refunds.

A good Internet marketing practice is to add upsells, downsells and backend in your sales funnel. This is very important to have those in your funnel, because affiliates only want one thing. They want more profits, and they like the word easy.

After the offer and the sales funnel, you need to drive a lot of traffic to your offer. Driving traffic is not difficult, but you have to focus on only one traffic generation technique until it works for you. For example, you may want to start with pay per click advertising. Don't try media buying or article marketing at the same time. If you do this, you will not master any of these techniques. The right way to drive traffic to your offer is to learn one step at a time. Once you understand how to profit with pay per click, and that you get a decent amount of traffic to your offer, you can think about trying another traffic source. I recommend that you try search engine optimization. Of if you prefer, start with search engine optimization and when you start to get decent rankings and sales, try pay per click.

To succeed with your information product, it is important to have a plan.

Four Steps to Quickly Create an Ebook

Many people dream of writing and publishing their own ebook. The development of the eBook (simply, a book which is published in electronic format rather than in traditional print and which is distributed directly onto a person's computer or electronic device) is something which allows virtually anyone to become a published author. You no longer need a publisher, agent or expensive printing costs. You can literally create an eBook and have it in the marketplace within days and at virtually no cost.

However, despite all this, many people never realize their dream of having their eBook produced. Why is this? It is simply because the main difficulty for most people is to actually get their book written. Actually getting your ideas down on 'paper' can be daunting for many people. But it is obviously the key if you really want to create an ebook.

If you are struggling with such issues, or even if you would like a few tips on speeding up the process, here are four simple steps to creating your ebook.

1) Commit yourself to a deadline. By selecting a date when you WILL have your eBook written you are sending your brain a very important message. You are telling it that you are serious! Choose a date that is realistic but which will also create a sense of urgency for you. It could be as much as six months or as little as a week. Make it short enough that you will feel motivated to actually get started, which is the key.

2) Tell yourself that you can do it. This is vitally important. Most people fill their heads with all sorts of reasons and ideas as to why they can't write an eBook - they are too busy, no one will want to read it, it won't be any good, they don't know how to market it. and so on. These are all sure-fire ways to ensure you never get started, or, even if you do, that you will never finish.

Even great writers battle with such negative thoughts. Ignore them, tell yourself positive things about your writing and it will give you the momentum to get it done.

3) Create an outline before you start. Creating an eBook is very like building a house: if you start with complete plans and then just follow them then things are a lot easier. Begin with the end in mind by creating a clear outline of all of the sections and chapters in your eBook and what you are going to cover.

4) Just write. "The longest journey begins with the first step" is a true and wise saying. Don't think too hard about your writing; just turn on your computer, put your fingers to the keys and GO. Leave your editing until later. Aim to write a significant amount (say 1000 words) before you even stop.

Follow these four steps and apply some discipline to yourself and you will be amazed at how quickly you see your eBook take shape. You will create an eBook that you will be proud of and may even go on to be a best seller.

Creative Ebook Writing Ideas

I have the desire. I have the keyboard. How do I find the best I have to write about? What if no one likes my writing? I imagine most aspiring writers have had those conversations with themselves. I sure have. The truth is, though, we all have many books inside us. Unique thoughts and experiences that are ours, and yet so similar and relatable to other people.

Sometimes in our day to day life, we get lost in the 'Matrix'. We forget our 'child like' curiosity, and our thoughts get clouded with, well, life. Give yourself a gift. The gift of time to clear your head and think. Dream, wonder, and breath. Getting quiet and closing your eyes, while inhaling and exhaling deeply can start the subconscious to fire ideas at you. Keep a notepad ready and write everything that comes to mind. No matter what it is. If you fall asleep, remember your dreams if possible. Keep that note pad with you everywhere you go, and determine to be present, aware, and curious of all around you. Not only will book titles jump out at you, but life will seem to spring up all around as well.

Our memories hold a library of joys and laughter, tragedy and tears. Even unpleasant times in your life can make useful book material, because there are people out there who have had the same experience, and may be comforted to know they were not alone. How you coped with or overcame the situation may be the answer they needed. No one has seen through your eyes, or had your thoughts and feelings. When your story connects with readers who can relate to it, they will laugh with you, cry with you, wonder with you, and even feel what you felt.

Practical topics, like our experience with pets like birds, cats, dogs, fish, or even more unusual critters, can make good ebooks. Also sports like fishing, hunting and archery skills. Gold mining 'how to'. Growing food, home building, home repair. Whatever your skills are can be helpful to many.

Real life adventures and unexplained oddities. Even fictional characters who have led amazing lives that the real us were to timid to ever venture. Humor is universally sought after. We all love to laugh.

Your work experience is valuable and helpful to thousands of readers. Health experience, and even hobbies can be a wealth of material.

If you're not a professional writer, and know practically nothing about eBook creation like I did, then you need a helping start to get your creative eBook writing ideas all together, written, and published online for sale. There's a lot of competition in the eBook world. We need an edge to jump in and let the world know we are here, and we have something to say.

2 Ways To Monetize Your Ebook

If you're looking for a way to earn more money with your ebook, then you have landed at the right place. Today I want to show you some great ways to market your eBook and get sales with them. These techniques are simple and easy to use, and I use them in my internet business everyday.

Now don't expect to earn millions overnight. It just won't happen. But if you want to see fast results... results that will motivate you to keep going... then you will want to read everything on this page. I want to share with you something that you can be doing to improve your eBook sales and profits today. Here's the first thing that you should do:

1) Upload to Amazon Kindle

Amazon Kindle is a great place to put your eBook up for sale and to start earning money from it in a short period of time. If you do your research, you will find that a lot of the ebooks on Kindle sell for around $9 to $12. These are for more popular ebooks that have been reformatted from paperback or hard cover, to ebook. The kind of eBook that you are selling may probably work best for you in the $4 to $5 range - all depending on your ebook.

Now it is very possible for you to price your eBook at $10 and still make sales on a recurring basis. I used to sell a book on Kindle that was getting me about 5 sales per day. It was only priced at $5, but it made me a heck of a lot of money all within a short period of time. I'm willing to bet that you can have the same results like this also with your ebook. Let's take a look at another strategy you can use to earn more money with your eBook today.

2) Sell it on your own website

Many people don't like the idea of promoting their product on the internet because they think that it's too hard to get sales this way. But believe it or not, you can earn incredible profits with this method. If you put your eBook up for sale on Kindle, it'll probably get you sales at around $5. If you put the same eBook up on your website, you could sell it for $19 - $29 a pop.

I like to call this "good math". With profits like these, it's hard to turn back and focus all your attention on Kindle. You would more than likely want more website sales, and just let your Kindle account operate on autopilot. There are many people making money with this model, and you can make money with this same model also.

Promoting your eBook on your website isn't a tough thing to do. Many people are having success with their eBook on their website, and they don't plan to stop selling more and more of it no time soon. If you want to start making more money in your online business, you will have to utilize these tips to the utmost of your ability. Give them a try today.

Good luck with promoting your eBook online.

7 Reasons to Learn Japanese

"Learn everything you can, anytime you can, from anyone you can; there will always come a time when you will be grateful you did." ~ Sarah Caldwell

Have you ever found yourself wanting to learn a new language? You're not alone. By learning a new language you can also get a glimpse at the culture behind the language. Without the ability to communicate, you can never truly understand a culture on its own terms. In a world where we can connect with other cultures lays at our fingertips, learning a new language is a logical step to expand our own horizons. Without understanding a culture, you risk being misunderstood.

Why learn Japanese? Here's 7 reasons!

1) Business Opportunities

Japan is a diverse and prosperous country. Learning Japanese can open the door to new opportunities for yourself or your company. Being able to truly communicate with potential customers or colleagues can open many doors. If you're stuck utilizing a translator, you will have to deal with an inconsistency in grammar. By understanding the language, you will also get an insiders point of view on their work culture and etiquette. This could help you make or break and important deal.

2) A Gateway Language

Throughout history, Japan has been shaped by the influence of Asia's great civilizations. While the cultures differ, they also have many similarities that make them different from the Western ways. Learning Japanese will give you a glimpse into the Asian cultures, and also help you gain a new perspective into your own everyday life.

Not only will learning Japanese help you with other languages, it can also help you improve your native language. Research has shown that being multilingual enables students to use their native language more effectively. Learning a new language might help you understand and appreciate your own language.

3) Study Abroad

Many students shy away from studying in countries where English is not the native language. Sadly, many students miss out on a fantastic experience - either because they believe their grades will suffer or that their communication will not be adequate. Ease your anxiety by studying beforehand, and preparing yourself to be able to live outside the campus walls.

4) Culture

Japan has a beautifully vibrant culture. From anime to bonsai, Japanese culture has found itself inside many households around the world. Knowing the language can allow you to gain more insight in your manga, or allow you to find a new way to order your sushi.

By learning about the culture of Japan, you'll also learn more about yourself and your own culture. Learning a new language can let you step outside your own familiar scope and inspect your own traditions and habits from an "outsiders" perspective. Who knows what you could discover!

5) Be Unique

When people talk about learning a new language, they normally choose something like Spanish, Mandarin, or possibly French. By choosing Japanese, you're going to be setting yourself apart not only from your peers but also on your resume. Everyone is always looking for a way to stand out, and being bilingual is always a good way to start. Whatever your career goals are, knowing Japanese won't hurt, and might give you the edge over other applicants.

6) It's not as hard as you think!

It's true that Japanese is much different than an English or European language. However you can get by with learning the 44 or so hiragana or katakana characters that represent sounds in a similar way as the English alphabet. The grammar is in many ways more simple than that of a European language. Nouns have no gender, plural forms, or accompanying articles to learn. It has two verb tenses, present and past. With only 5 vowel sounds and consistent phonetic spelling, the language is fairly easy to pronounce.

7) Time to Travel

You can obviously travel to Japan without knowing a single word. Depending on what you want out of your experience, that might be OK. Even if you're fantastic at charades, knowing the language can help you appreciate the day-to-day culture that goes beyond the tourist stops. Language barriers can be frustrating at best, especially if you're the type to explore. Just imagine visiting Japan and being able to order meals, ask directions, and find accommodations. While it's true that in most tourist areas English is spoken, most people will appreciate your attempts to use their language instead of being expected to speak your language. Knowing the language will allow you to see and do things that many tourists cannot.

However you can get by with learning the 44 or so hiragana or katakana characters that represent sounds in a similar way as the English alphabet. The grammar is in many ways more simple than that of a European language. Nouns have no gender, plural forms, or accompanying articles to learn. It has two verb tenses, present and past. With only 5 vowel sounds and consistent phonetic spelling, the language is fairly easy to pronounce.

You can obviously travel to Japan without knowing a single word. Depending on what you want out of your experience, that might be OK. Even if you're fantastic at charades, knowing the language can help you appreciate the day-to-day culture that goes beyond the tourist stops. Language barriers can be frustrating at best, especially if you're the type to explore. Just imagine visiting Japan and being able to order meals, ask directions, and find accommodations. While it's true that in most tourist areas English is spoken, most people will appreciate your attempts to use their language instead of being expected to speak your language. Knowing the language will allow you to see and do things that many tourists cannot.
