Info Products/ebay

by YP8
11 replies
I feel ebay type selling could devalue info product selling - no sales page to sell it etc - but is it worth it for possible traffic? (I mean along with mini -site + blog too)

With mine, I can sell a bit of kit too if I like, so maybe now and then do the info product + 2 bits of kit in a packaged, special-offered

Is all this not the way to go though when trying to build some value in your product?

      It really depends on the info products if you try to sell plr ebooks that lots of other sellers have devalued then it will not work , however if you find the right niche you can still make a killing with ebooks on ebay i currently sell ebooks but i put them on CD's using a self publishing service and they sell for $15 up to $50 and it is Semi automated all i need to do is approve orders.

      That was a few years back but with the change of policy it's become a hassle to get feedbacks as no downloadable products are allowed.

      I still remember in the old days I can get hundreds of feedbacks within a few days when I sell downloadable ebooks at less than a dollars - just to cover ebay and paypal fees.

    AS several people have said there is still money to be made on eBay with info products.

    You know what people say about opinions - so I would STRONGLY suggest you hop over to eBay and take a look. People are making THOUSANDS of $$$$ every month....

    Selling digital ebooks on Ebay used to be my main income source untill the change over to physical products. I just upped the cost of the physical CD's and it pretty much evened out. The amount of sales I had decreased, but I made more on each ebook, so it evened out for the most part.

    I did drop a lot of my ebooks as they didn't work as well, but certain niches still work with the higher price and physical CD's.

    The one thing that was true then and it is still true now, is that you can't sell the typicam IM resell rights products and expect it to just work. If you want to make money on Ebay with ebooks they need to be a specific ebook of your own that no one else is selling or sell a niche specific ebook that is non IM related.

    I picked up the resell rights to a niche specific ebook for $9.95 and sold thousands of copies ranging from $9.95 to $21.95. When it was a digital download I sold it at $9.95 and as a CD the best price was at $17.95.

    So, yes, Ebay can and does work for ebooks, you just have to figure out what works and what doesn't.

    I used to sell Ebooks on Ebay till they changed to physical products.
    Looking into putting all on to dvd or cd I decided was to much work
    so went over to info products and affiliate Marketing which once you have
    taught yourself the ropes Works but is a large learning curve.
    Involving a more than a few Hrs
    Also you need to find a good Online Teacher
    One who you can Trust.
