My aim is to make you a better eBook seller on eBay. In my newsletters I will reveal all my selling secrets that will hopefully make you a better eBook seller. I will also provide you with some new and unreleased eBooks to get you started completely free. If you have missed out on any of my previous newsletters you can now catch up via the archive link on the right. There you can also download even more eBooks.

In this issue we will cover the following topics.

  • Quick update.

  • Help The Viral Process Begin.

  • Download another collection of FREE eBooks. Most are brand new and unreleased.

  • Please share your thoughts through the visitor comment system.

Quick update.

I hope you like the new look newsletter. I have gotten rid of the old framed style and anyone that had problems viewing in the past should now have no problems. As I was updating the pages I noticed it is almost a year since my first newsletter. How time flies..

The comment system seems to be very popular with everyone, please keep adding your comments as that's what brought this update. With your feedback I can make this newsletter better than ever. If you have any suggestions I would love to hear from you. Also feel free to submit your own tips and even if you disagree with anything I write your comments are still welcomed.

Help The Viral Process Begin.

Ok, you have created an eBook and you have granted resale rights to generate an affiliate income and website visitors. But have you ensured the viral process can start? If you haven’t you may find your eBook will not sell as well as you planned.

First of all make sure in the opening statement of your eBook you mention your eBook has resale rights and state your resale terms if you have any. Also, don’t complicate things here. Keep the resale terms as simple as possible. If you complicate things here you will find no one will sell your eBook. I personally don’t care how others distribute my resale rights eBooks as long as they are not modified.

Statements that may complicate things include:

  • Having a minimum resale price.
  • Not allowing your eBook to be added to membership sites.
  • Not allowing your eBook to be packaged with other eBooks/products.
  • Not allowing your eBook to be given away.

Now most people will have the above rules to keep the value of their eBook high. However, if you feel strongly about some of the terms above my advice would be not to grant resale rights in the first place. For me granting resale rights means I want as many people as possible to read my eBooks so I don’t really care how much it sells for and how it is distributed.

You also need to make it as easy as possible for others to resell your eBook.

The first thing you should include is your sales page. Make sure you mention the page can be edited. Also, the better looking the sales page is more chances you have of someone using it to sell your eBook. It also helps to include additional graphics and images. This helps your reseller to make the page more personal.

Also try and include a decent eBook cover. This helps with eBay listings as most sellers like to add the cover to the listing.

Now have you ever thought of including a winning bidder email with your eBook? This would simply be a text document with a short message and download link to your eBook. I don’t see this getting done much and can’t understand why more sellers don’t do it. Think about it? If someone who is not very experienced with selling eBooks, providing download links or sending attachments can simply copy and paste an email to deliver your eBook they are more likely to sell it for you.

Also, you are in control and if you update your eBook more buyers will receive the latest version. However, that is not the main reason for doing this.

Remember in the last newsletter we discussed how to create the perfect download page? Well what if other sellers were sending their customers to your download page? How much more income would you be generating from your up-sells, recommendations and AdSense?

So try to remember to make it as easy as possible for others to sell your eBook. The easier you make it the more people will sell it and that will ultimately lead to you earning more, and that’s what it’s all about…
