Please coach or advise on product release

5 replies
Okay, I need to step carefully here because I am new to this game (selling information products), and I have a product that I wrote/created that is really unique and valuable. I don't want to blow it, so I figure I could use some advice regarding releasing it.

It is in the health niche, in a very hot and active sub-niche, but it is based completely on personal experience, and actually contains very valuable information. It is not regurgitated previously released info or PLR or anything like that---it is high quality information based on my own life-changing experience with the remedy that the report reveals. To my knowledge, no one else has this out there.

The reason this is valuable is that the remedy in question doesn't work just for me, it has worked for everyone I've turned on to it... that's how I know it's very good info that thousands of people are going to want. I've had people on the net that I've given the info to free just to help them message me thanking me effusively for changing their life and health. I'm serious, I would never BS anyone about that (or anything else really). But I figure it's time for me to get out there and launch my first product.

So, any tips? Should I do a straight text PDF with no images? Or include images (they're not needed to get the info across)? Clickbank, or forget Clickbank (I'm inclined not to go with them based on things I've heard, but is there a better route?)?

I think I will get affiliates on this because the info is so good. How good? Okay, let's say it is about arthritis (it's not, this is an example)... but instead of my report being the same old rehashed arthritis info, it reveals a cutting-edge (not well known), cheap, safe and easy botanical remedy that you just took once a day and it reliably WIPED OUT the arthritis pain in hours and kept it away regularly... that would be big, no? My report is like that, but for an even bigger "niche malady"... much bigger, I think. Maybe the biggest, or at least in the top 5 for sure.

How would some of you handle this if you were sitting on it? The report is only 5 pages as a .doc file but the way I've seen people format PDFs, I think it could expand to 8 pages easily and if I added images, maybe even 10-12 pages. It's very well written and informative in a tone that is sort of part clinical report and part personal testimonial.

The main thing I worry about is that the main info---identifying what the remedy is---is pretty cut and dried... that is to say, if anyone revealed it to the public on a forum or some other way, it would ruin most of the impact of my infoproduct. I know someone will eventually rip off the info and put out other products based on it, but how do I prevent this in the shorter run?

Any help? Thanks guys

    You can always add more. The longer you make it you more value it carries (perceived).

    You can find almost anything that is for sale online for free on the next web site. But the visitor has to find it.

    But if it really works: Don't worry. Very few people will spread it.

    So, go ahead and publish your ebook!

      Thank you! I plan to, but was hoping for some insight on the best place/channel to start with.

      The question might bear repeating: if you were sitting on such a property, where and how would you release it? I'm hoping for various replies from about 10 or more different members to see if a consensus emerges.

      Does this type of round table discussion only happen in the war room...? I'm still trying to learn the dynamics of things here.

        Firs of all do keyword research and find out what your market niche is searching in search engines, after create good website and do right SEO, after which try to look for non Search traffic to your website.

    Yes that would be the standard way of doing it, and I'm sure I'll do it but I'm trying to see if I or anyone else have any good outside-the-box ideas that I could do at the same time.

    The thing is, this product is not one that I would try to get $37 or $47+ for as it is a very short one at around 5 pages. I mean the info is worth that and more to anyone who wants relief from the problem, but it didn't take a million words to convey it. I guess you could say it's high-quality, low-quantity info.

    And how about this scenario: I have another short e-book that is about 11 pages, and plan to sell it on Kindle where the price is likely to be $2 or $3, but it can get much more than that outside the Kindle realm, perhaps $10 or $12 easily. Isn't it some kind of ethical dilemma having the two hugely different prices? The Kindle market is huge, which is great, but it also devalues the product heavily. Do people sell their ebooks outside Kindle at several dollars more than their Kindle price?
