So you want to write a hot selling ebook, but by the time you’ve written your name your creativity has dried up. Don’t worry; I’m going to show you how to create an ebook for a hot topic without having to take classes in creative writing or copywriting. Can you write a few simple paragraphs? Basic descriptive stuff, not literature or poetry. Good, that’s all you need. So what’s the easiest way to produce a book if you can’t write it yourself? Use other peoples material. “Isn’t that stealing or plagiarism”? You ask. Well it would be if you didn’t get permission. “Now why would any one give me permission to use their material”? Believe it or not every day people sit and write articles and give you permission to copy them. Too good to be true! Are they crazy? Usually they are business owners with web sites, and they write articles to get publicity for their businesses. They actually want people to copy their article and help spread it far and wide. Normally their article or a small paragraph at the end will contain a link back to their web site. So the more people who see their article the more visitors their web sites get and the more business they do. So go to goarticles.com in the search bar type in “Ferrets” or whatever your chosen topic is. Make sure you search on article content, not Author. Now you should get thousands of results. Here’s what you do next. Go through the search results, and choose at least seventy articles on your chosen topic. Choose quality articles and copy and paste them into a word processing programme such as Word. Please make sure you use quality articles. Remember “Garbage in garbage out” If your new ebook is full of rubbish you will get a sky high refund rate, and waste a lot of time. You want this to be a profitable exercise. Be a little creative with this part; don’t have too broad a range of articles. Try and group them together in a sub niche. For instance if your chosen niche is Home decorating, you could choose your articles from a sub niche such as “Decorating on a budget” or “Decorative paint techniques”. Remember I said these articles are available for reprint, but to make sure you don’t break any copyright laws, email the authors and ask for their permission to use the article. Explain that you are creating an ebook aimed at their niche market, and that you would like to include their article, also that you will include information about them and a link back to their site. Expect around seventy percent of authors to reply. You can discard the articles of those who refuse permission or who don’t reply. Now you can create your ebook. Sort your articles into a sensible order. You could create chapters around specific areas. For example if your niche was decorative paint techniques, you might have a chapter on paint finishes for walls, a chapter on finishes for floors or one on finishes for furniture. To complete your ebook write a few short paragraphs for your introduction and conclusion. Just short factual descriptions explaining to the reader what they could learn from the book, and sign of with your own name. Now you’re an expert in your chosen niche. If you have back end products you can create a link to them at the end of your book. The final step is to turn your compilation of articles into an ebook, so that you can sell it. Go to www.primopdf.com and download the software. It won’t cost you anything. Once you’ve downloaded it open your word processing package where you saved your ebook , Click on “File” and then click on “Print” and then select “Primo PDF” as your printer. Bingo! You just created your ebook. So that’s how you create a product with other people doing the work for you. It should only take a matter of hours. Now you can create all the ebooks than you will ever need. Isn’t that fantastic! Other people do the hard work, you don’t spend any money, but you get to keep all the profits.
