Auction Traffic Explosion – John Thornhill’s recently released ebook

John Thornhill has just released Auction Traffic Explosion – which reveals the secrets of how he’s built his list to over 19000 using just eBay.

John’s also added a great incentive to anyone that buys the book, you can re-sell it and keep all the profits for yourself. 

As an eBay powerseller, John can afford such generosity, not only because he’s building his list still further with this offer, but also because he’s offering a whole bunch of his older products as a bonus when you buy the book.

Unlike John’s other products, this is a rather cheap and cheerful ebook, and rather thin at just 15 pages for $7.  There’s not even a Title page!

If you’re interested in selling info products but are disappointed with the income that you’re making – John’s method of using it to build your list could be a way forward.  I’d suggest that you also check out Aurelius Tjin’s Unstoppable List Building which is a free download at the One Dollar Bookstore to get some tips on building your list.

One of the benefits of John’s system is that it is all automated, the ebook delivery and the follow up emails.

John’s stated aim is to build a list to which he can sell again and again.  Typically it’s possible to make up to four times the original value of the sale from your list, if you know how to treat it and what to do with it.

He covers the area of ebook Titles, how to get visitors to your website, using an eBay store and the tools (like Selling Manager and Selling Manager Pro) to help automate the process still further.

If this is something you’re interested in, then it’s worth looking at. 

Personally, I don’t feel that John’s shared much new information that isn’t in his other products – much of it’s just reworked into a different format.  That’s fine, as he’s selling this as a product that can increase traffic – and there’s plenty of people that are looking for legitimate and immediate ways to do that.

Whilst this is a method that everyone can use – use it with caution – it’s all too easy to get distracted and find you’re spending more time on the eBay business than the original business it was meant to boost!

Risk Free – How To Write An ebook

There’s plenty of free information on writing your first ebook at places like www.ezinearticles.com .  Plenty of people who couldn’t write a conventional book have written and published their own ebook.  The key tip is to write about something you know about – don’t just find something that you think will make money and try and write about that. 

The big internet marketing successes are people who wrote about what they know – even if it may seem small and obscure to you. 

 Have you got an idea for your book but just don’t know where to start, then How to Write and Publish Your Own eBook in 7 Days – is guaranteed to get you started.  It’s the book I read before I started writing my first ebook, and I’ve now got several books successfully written and selling.  Jim & Joe are very successful in internet marketing and their writing is very easy to follow and understand – each time I decide to write a new book, then I get the book out again for reference and inspiration!   Try it out for two full months – risk free.

 You can even get an ebook written for you by the freelancers at Elance – I’ve had two books written in this way and it was both quick and successful.  I just jotted a few notes and titles down and the writers did the rest – and much more affordable that I’d have thought.

Love the ebooks covers at ebookecovers.com and, of course, Killer Covers – an aptly named company!

Payloadz Scores 10 out of 10

One of my “sidelines” is selling ebooks.  I initially used Paypal to set this up but had one or two problems with people not being able to download the ebooks after paying for them.

I happened to come across Payloadz whilst browsing the internet – admittedly I was looking at some pretty expensive solutions to ensuring that people could safely and immediately download my e-books.  They had a trial option, so I tried it out on the ebook which I sell the least of, just to see how it worked and how easy it was to set up.

All payments are made by Paypal so go instantly to my Paypal account – no monthly cheques to wait for and bank.

Result:-  It’s easy to set up a product, adding the html to my site couldn’t be easier and I’ve had no problems with downloads.  I’m sent a copy of all emails sent to customers – so that if one email does get eaten by the spam filters you can just forward it to them or cut and paste the link to the download.

As the download link expires within a short time, it’s not possible for people to email the link to their friends so that they can download it for free. 

An additional bonus is that it’s possible to offer the product to affiliates who sign up via Payloadz which gives an option for additional income.  Not only that, but once you’ve reached a certain level of sales, your products are automatically listed on the Payloadz site on eBay – free promotion for your ebooks – not bad!

The charges are pretty minimal, considering the ease and convenience of this system – and are based on your turnover – so if you don’t sell too many books, the charge is pretty small.

 I’d recommend Payloadz if you’re considering an easy and secure way for people to download your ebook without spending loads of money.

Thinking of writing an ebook?

Yes!

Oops – was that too simple?!  As part of diversifying my internet businesses, I am considering writing an ebook.  I’ve already created two compilation ebooks which I sell, one of these sells very well, the other is still being developed.

Now I’ve come across a niche, where I already have a website, that I want to create a downloadable report or ebook, available at a low cost, say $4.95.  Although I’ve got some ideas about how to write it, I’ve found that I’ve been reading and re-reading “eBooks Secrets exposed” and using it as a manual to create an ebook, but also to be able to successfully market and sell it too.

I’m also using information gleaned from “How to write and publish your own ebook in 7 days“, which takes you through, step by step, just how to get started on what might otherwise seem a long and tedious process. 

Although I’m still working full-time, I’m hoping to have these reports created by the end of May and to sell them via Clickbank, where I also buy some of the best and most useful information reports.
