Fastest way to make your own ebook without having to do any hard work. This works like magic.

MaskedGuru? Is that you?

Armand morin's method involves just copying pasting articles from article directories and making it into an ebook. Well I guess that would have quality issues as not all articles are that good.

Thanks a lot. I am glad you like it.

Why not create a different email account per niche. Use those email addresses only for opting into newsletters in that niche. Do not use them or publish them anywhere else.

That way, you still get your newsletters, but if times turns against you and you check your email two weeks later, the only emails will be newsletters in that niche.

I suspect after two weeks of using this method in any given niche, you would have enough info to sit down and create a product in one day.

Amen! That's why PLR articles and ebooks are so popular. Edit them a bit and you got your own product.

Excellent Idea. Never thought of checking out newsletter for information for article writing. Shows what thinking out of the box can really do.

I've forgotten where this quote comes from...

"There is nothing New Under the Sun".

Well.. not unless you're the creator of a new niche or technique.
But even, you never know if somebody has been doing something
for years, but never published.

I meant get ideas as newsletters tend to have the best quality content.

Exactly...When you subscribe to the right kind of newsletters you will definitely find gold.

This is a very simple but effective way to get your creative juices flowing

Yes...This is what I always meant...Guess people got the wrong idea here. Thanks a lot.

Glenn,
You are right, the OP did not say to do it.. But -- the OP did not suggest not to do it either. This is where the problem is as many will just assume what the OP means and run with it. The post as you can see are proof of that.

State exactly what you mean when making such a post and then nobody gets the wrong idea. Use no hype (such as a migic wand or button) in your post along with posting exactly what you mean and you will have many that will not be mislead into thinking something else.

James

James,
I couldn't agree with you more - I'll comment after providing my $0.02 on the OP

There's an old expression in writing that goes ( :-) I'm hesitant to use in , but note its smiley captioned for the humor impaired :-) )

Copying from one person is called plagerism, copying from several is called research.
also - Plagiarism is illegal, paraphrasing is not.

Please note - I am not suggesting copying others work as your own is ok - IT IS NOT OK.

But if you are not an expert in your field - reading/watching/interviewing other for research, and then putting in your thoughts/emotions/take on the matter is very much what a writer does. And a good writer will cite his reference material. If you don't know how to do that - grab a copy of Strunk's and White's The Elements of Style.

In fact you as a writer you should have a dictionary, a thesaurus, and this style manual at your fingertips - and they should be dogged eared and tattered from constant use.

Or for you younger folks I'm guessing their online equivalents should be in your bookmarks or favorites....

Next, you need to be careful of copyrights with PLR material - there have been several threads here about that, but if someone can't prove they have the legal right to provide the material - you're taking a risk. And the only legal proof is a certification from a governing body of copyright (The US Copyright office here in the United States).

If you have someone write material for you - have them sign a contract. For two reasons:

1. To legally assign the copyright to you and away from them. This is called a Work for Hire arrangement. IANAL, but would suspect emails are not as legally binding as a contract. Remember, the person who creates a work is the copyright holder - and only they can convey their rights to others.

2. As part of the contract, make sure they assert they are the creators and have the right to give the rights to you. And that they did not plagiarize material, and that if it turns out they did, that they to be held accountable and pay all claims against you.

Get a lawyer to write one for you or find one you can use (NOT plagiarize, see its gets kinda tedious to keep saying not to do something that common sense should tell you is wrong anyway, ugh...)

And if you do create a book - spend the 35$ (in the US) to get it properly protected and register your copyright. See:

U.S. Copyright Office - Online Services (eCO: Electronic Copyright Office)

Hope this helps...

Now, to all the one liners
WTF people? What are you contributing here by this crap? From your post counts I'm going to just say its ignorance - no problem with that - but you need to learn. Please provide some feedback or help with your posts. If you just want to say "Great Post", then just click the thanks button. Does the same thing, but doesn't degrade the signal to noise ratio in the thread. And if you're doing it for other reasons - like inflating your post count - someone is going to ding you with that little infraction button.

I was sooooo tempted to that myself, but hey - figured I give the following folks the benefit of a doubt and lean to you just not knowing any better.
Folks who didn't get ding'd today are:
obthno8
yaz8888
rayandlisaJ
mr3army
philbowman
alancol
Take heed folks - participate - don't pollute, or the infractions will start to pile up.

And its not just one line posts we're complaining about here. Take a look at the one liners from JameSchramko and Richpeck, both one/two line, but they provided actionable information in that one line of information.

So - if all you want to do is say "great post", hit the thanks button. otherwise, be quite. Or better yet - give us a detailed reply.

peace,
--Jack

This is a great resource...But is it really that easy to get an interview? Or is it a lengthy process?

If it's crap...Why is it so popular? So you mean to say a multi billion dollar company can be build on crap?


Nope! But I am not just referring to only internet marketing. Check out some niche newsletters.

As James (TheRichJerk) and Kay has said...do not just copy the contents of a newsletter and add it, for one thing many newsletters are copyrighted.

I think the original idea of this was a good one then somewhere it strayed off a little and some people got the wrong idea what the original poster was suggesting.

Except - you can't just use copy even if you give credit, unless you are copying an entire article from a directory or have gotten permission from the author. I'm sure you understand that - but I think others might not.

James - I knew what you were saying so was trying to get this back on track.

The hamburger is a pretty good comparison to me.

You could wait in McDonald's drive thru for a tasteless burger that may be lukewarm .

Or you could sit in comfortable chair at a friend's house and eat a quarter pound burger of ground sirloin cooked on a grill with fresh lettuce, home grown tomatoes and cheddar cheese on a bakery bun.

Now - let me give you my research resource - the library! Most marketers don't think of going to the library but with current magazines and newspapers and all those books it's a great place for researching and writing.

kay

I thought signing up to newletters was IM 101?

Its good for ideas, research, and current news, but wouldn't base an entire ebook on it.

YES, a Multi Billion Dollar company can be build on CRAP FOOD!

McDonalds may not be BETTER than a burger at a resturant, but its FASTER and CHEAPER (normally). Thats part of marketing 101.

Dominos did the same thing. There Pizza was crap when they first came out, but because of the quickness (30 mins or free) they were able to dominate the Pizza niche.


Def agree Kay. Have people forgotten book stores/libraries came before the internet?

Unless some info marketer/reseachers can't get to a library or a book store (i prefer B&N) - they need to become aware of the invaluable resources availabe there.

Most (if not all) niches in the book stores are proven or else they wouldn't be there. The easiest way to find a niche is to go the book store/library and look at books and magazines. It costs money to publish a real world magazine and book, so take advantage of it.

And the "Dummies" books (about 20 niches and over 350 titles) wouldn't be on book shelves if there werent a market for them (hint).
