So i was wondering what should i do with an Ebook beside give it for free to build a list.

I saw several Warriors offer to write 50 pages Ebook for 400$. Should I use it as my own product and sell it on Clickbank or use it for JV? Will that be bad since I'm pretty sure the information gonna reuse over and over again but with fancier writing. I mean if you have new information, you would not write that down for others so he/she can pass it as his own products right? Please prove me wrong, and tell me what things you can do with an Ebook.

    It depends on the ebook and the subject matter.

    I prefer to talk about word count rather than pages.

    You could get a 5-10,000 word ebook for $400. And, for that money, you can expect the content to be good enough to sell and make a profit on.

    You won't get the sort of ebook you could put on Clickbank, attract 1000s of affiliates and earn thousands of dollars. But sell from your site, on Amazon, Lulu, iTunes, etc. promote with your blog and list, and you'll make more than $400 on each ebook you buy.

    There are a lot of other ways to get more value from it.

    You can re-purpose it into other types of content like a video series, email course, audio podcast, break it down into several articles to bring traffic, or sell it and the re-purposed material as PLR.

      I'd agree, there's so many things you can do with just a single high-quality ebook. You can even repurpose it and still be selling it at the same time - the best thing to do is come up with a plan, implement it, and test/track/tweak the results.

      Good luck!

    Hey add191,
    With anything you are selling you should make your prospect want your bonuses more than the actual thing you are selling lol. Basically if you plan on selling the ebook, make some video bonuses. For example, lets say you wrote an ebook on how to use Google+ for your business. You might also want to interview someone on video about how they are using (and being successful with) Google+ in their own business. There you go, one bonus. A webinar is a great bonus too. A Q and A conference call. You get the point... give good bonuses! also you could switch things around and sell a video series and give the book away as a bonus.

    Kate
