In this article I’m going to explain to you how you can quickly create a unique product by letting other people do most of the work for you.
Intrigued? Then read on . . .
I will show you how you don’t have to have brilliant writing skills to create an in-demand information product. Simply follow the example of many top ebook publishers and you’ll have another quality info product under your belt before you know it!
By using article directories and carefully selecting articles that have been submitted there, you will be able to create a quality product in 24 hours or less. A favourite site of mine is Go Articles.com. There you will find many articles written by web site owners and submitted to the article directory as a way of getting free advertising for their site(s).
Pick any article and you will see a section at the end of it which gives some details about the author and also usually includes a link back to their web site. The more people who read that article, the more people are likely to click on that link and visit the website. An increase in the number of visitors inevitably leads to an increase in the number of sales, and all this has come purely through taking a few minutes to write and submit an article. It is the perfect free advertising.
You might be thinking, “What has article writing got to do with me creating a product quickly?” Well, the answer is that you can go to Go Articles.com, type in your niche subject (kittens, dinghy sailing, etc.) and you will get a whole list of articles related to that niche subject. Go through them all (yes, it will take a little time but be patient) and pick out at least 60 – 70 articles of good quality. These are going to be the basis of your product soon so make sure that you only pick articles of good quality.
As you decide on each article that you like, copy and paste it into a word document (Word, Notepad, etc.). Be choosy as you go, always making sure that the standard of the article is good enough for your purposes and will not reflect badly on you or degrade the value of your final product. As you work through them, check if you have found any sub niches along the way. If so, either group the similar articles together, which will eventually form “chapters” in your book or, alternatively, you might find that you have enough articles covering a sub niche to enable you to produce a product on that subject alone.
So much information for free . . . what’s the catch then? Well, there isn’t one, but the one thing you must ALWAYS do is get permission from the authors of the articles BEFORE you use their content in your own product. The way to do this is very simple. All you have to do is email each author individually, along these lines:
“I’m currently putting together a book on XXXX. I was wondering if I could include your great article on XYZ. If that’s ok, please get back in contact with me to confirm and, if you have any other articles on XXXX that I could also include, please let me have them as well. I confirm that I will leave intact the response boxes containing your details and links at the end of the articles so that you will continue to get free publicity, etc. I look forward to hearing from you.”
Hopefully, you will get quite a high response from the authors you have contacted but do remember to discard the articles written by those people who have either not replied to you or who have turned you down.
Once you have permission, it’s time to organise those articles into a logical order for your book. So, group them together under their sub niches and turn these into “chapters” in your book. For example, a book on Bonsai Trees could have chapters on ‘General Everyday Care’, ‘Propagating’, ‘How to Deal with Disease’, and so on.
Next you need to create a Contents page so that buyers can go immediately to the sub niche that they want to read about. If you’re not sure how to do this, just pick up any everyday book and look at how they’ve listed the contents of the book in a general page at the front.
You will also need to write a short introduction to the book and also a conclusion. This won’t be that difficult. It really only has to be 2 – 4 paragraphs for each. Think of it as a way of summarising for the reader what they are going to find in the book and then wrapping it all up at the end in a short conclusion. Don’t forget to put your name at the end. After all, you are the author of this product. You assembled it and the package as you have created it is unique to you. Also, include a link to your website and any back end products that you might have.
Check through your book very carefully for spelling mistakes, punctuation errors, etc. The more professional it looks the more sales you will make. Your final step is to turn it into an ebook. This is done by converting it into a PDF file. Don’t worry, you can get free software for doing this by going to Primopdf.com. Download the software to your PC and then from within your word processing software click ‘File’, ‘Print’ and then select ‘Primo PDF’ from the list of printers. The software will then convert your document into a PDF format. Hey Presto! One finished ebook!
I’m sure that you can see that following the above plan will not take you as many hours to do as it would if you had to write an ebook from scratch. Yes, of course you will have to wait for each of the authors to reply to you but, apart from that, this really is a very quick way to create an information product. Once you’ve got the hang of it, you’ll probably find that you have more ideas for products than you know what to do with!
One more thing. How much does this method cost you, apart from your time? That’s right – absolutely nothing! Yet for a zero financial investment you could end up with a product that could sell thousands of times over. So . . . what are you waiting for?
