eBook Profit Spiral

eBook profits spiraling upward for free.

Dream on.

Internet Marketing Gurus claim that eBooks have brought name, fame and riches to millions. They hint that you too could be making money with eBooks, simply by buying their product. Of course their product is an eBook.

Why?

Because eBooks are cheap to produce and even cheaper to distribute. The only cost is in advertising, marketing and order taking.

So, once an eBook is created, their is a potential for huge profits…

But, advertising and marketing are expensive.

So, the way that eBook authors sell their products is through an army of affiliates who sell for them.

For this service, a finder’s fee, really, the eBook author pays from 40 to 75% of the purchase price. (Of course the cynic will say that if the eBook author pays 75% commission on the sale of the eBook, then the eBook is only worth 25% of the selling price. This is probably true.) However, no one will bother to sell the eBook for the author without a substantial return, so, eBooks will remain “overpriced.”

This is the reason that we examine eBook Profits for Free.

You can afford to give copies of your eBook away. “Free” is not for you, free is for your customers.

There are well documented (i.e., tested) reasons for giving copies of your eBook away, and these reasons increase your profits, not diminish them. (Remember: the copies don’t cost you anything to produce.)

Your providing free eBook Samples gives you:

• A Source of Testimonials
• Incentives for finding Affiliates - They see that your eBook is great and that there is a lot of sales potential

>li>Indentives for Joint Venture (JV) partners - They also see the potential for your eBook’s sales

Each copy that you give away creates awareness about you and your expertise. It also increases the “Word of Mouth” advertising that these recipients provide when they tell their friends and business associates about your eBook.

In addition, you can place advertisements (for your eBooks, and other products and services) in the eBook. You can also place links for related affiliate offers in the eBook.

And, if your eBook proves to be a useful resource, the eBook’s links to your Blog or eBook Sales Site can bring visitor traffic to your site for years to come.

So, consider how free copies, given in a strategic manner, can bring eBook Profits for years to come.
