Would You Prefer A Huge One

21 replies
I am sorry if this has been asked before but I was wondering if you preferred a huge guide about a particular subject or do you prefer a number of smaller guides, maybe six or seven, each one covering a different part of the money making process in a particular niche.

    I personally prefer several similar guides. This way it's easy to stay organized and I don't feel too overwhelmed by the amount of information.

    It's always better to split up a big report into several small reports i think. I think most people are like me and don't like to read 70+ pages reports, and rather have small reports to go over.

    But it depends on the content guess...

    I have been testing out longer guides with great success recently, but I personally like smaller guides. I believe smaller guides are simply more organized, but they should also be an appropriate length. I try to break everything down as much as possible to answer all of my reader's questions on each subject. Typically, this leads to my small guides being quite long.

    For money making, I think small guides would work better because readers may be looking to know how you pick a product specifically or how you go about promoting yourself.

    I don't mind a big guide if it has an index and is organized well but I think most prefer smaller reads divided up.

    Some people don`t like huge ones.

    A lot of people prefer smaller ones instead....

    Depends on the person, it seems.

    I prefer smaller guides as it's easier to learn like that. Having one huge guide can complicate things and isn't as good for learning in my opinion.

    If you are going to have a larger guide, I prefer to have a link on each page to go to the Table of Contents.

    And the Table of Contents should also have each chapter with a link and page number that it will take you to.

    This of course is if it's a digital book.

    The attention span of people is very low so, it's definitely better to give the information in smaller chunks so it's easier to consume.

    I would prefer the smaller one as well because it's easier to read 20-30 pages instead of 120. I should be short and to the point.

    I personally like a bigger guide with as much info as I can absorb. For me, it doesn't matter if it's a few hundred pages. I eat it up, but would like easy navigation between areas.

    Personally what i'd like is short over the shoulder watch me do it and follow along videos, but yeah, short guides would be better.
