INSTANT EBOOK RECIPES : Five Fantastic Ways To Create An Ebook Without Writing A Single WordOkay, the title of this article contains a little bit of an exaggeration. The act of the matter is, you will have to write at least a sentence or two. A sentence or two, you might ask? For an eBook? Amazing, isn't it? But this required writing would just be needed to brand your eBook and brand it as your own.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves. First thing's first, could you really come up with an eBook without writing any of its substantial pages? Indeed you could, and this article will show you five fabulous ways on how to accomplish this.
Ebooks have always been hot commodities in Internet marketing. They are used for a variety of purposes. You could sell them for profit, of course, but you could also use them to fuel a viral marketing campaign that would
persistently spread your business message to wide, wide audience. They can also be packages bonuses to increase the value of the main products that are up for sale. Ebooks also serve as excellent incentives to get people to subscribe to mailing lists, join online communities or avail of special programs.
But how would you be able to create an eBook if you are not blessed with the required writing prowess, or if you do not have the luxury of time to sit down and type the words that would express your thoughts?
Here are five ways that you could resort to:
1. Make use of public domain information. Public domain information is a body of intellectual works that have been published on or before 1923, and to a certain extent, on or before 1978. They are declared by law as "free use," meaning, anyone can use them, alter them, or add to what they contain without having to pay royalties to anyone. There should be public domain information relevant to most topics which you want to be covered in an eBook. The trick, really, is in finding them. Where could you find these gems? You could start at your local library, as most public domain information has yet to be transcribed in digital form. And for those that have been transcribed, you could check them out at www.thelostfiles.com and www.gutenberg.org .
2. Purchase private label rights for existing products. Private label rights would allow you to alter any existing eBook to suit your liking. You could even put your name as the author of the work. This may entail some financial investment, but it is one of the easiest ways that you could use to come up with your own eBook at the quickest possible time.
3. Compile articles. There are many article directories in the World Wide Web, and some of them contain novel and revolutionary pieces that might prove perfect for the topic of the eBook you have in mind. You could gather 10 or more of these articles and compile them to form one eBook. An important note, however: you must respect copyright laws. Include the resource boxes of these articles and never attempt to alter them. Their inclusion is tantamount to the original author's permission for the usage of the said articles. Write an introduction and a conclusion for the compilation, to give it that personal touch. You could include your name on the eBook as the editor.
4. Conduct an interview with an expert in the field and transcribe the same. The transcription can serve as the backbone of your eBook, or as the eBook itself. If you manage to interview Oprah, for example, you could transcribe such an interview and entitle your eBook as "A Revealing Interview With Oprah: Her Live, He Love, Her Passion," and include your name as the author-interviewer. If you don't have the time to transcribe this, you could hire a freelancer to do the dirty work for you
5. Hire a ghostwriter. This may be the most cost-heavy option available, but you'd be surprised how many people, established personalities included, resort to this choice. There is an abundance of ghostwriters in the World Wide Web. It's just a matter of choosing the one who would best fulfill your specifications.
