src="http://www.sonikadivision.com/blog.jpg" width="20" height="20" border="0" /></font> <font color="#FF6600" size="3" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Review: eBook Secrets Exposed </font></h1> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">If you want to make a lot of money with your own eBookand you only read one book on the subject in the next12 months, I strongly recommend that it's 'eBookSecrets Exposed' by Jim Edwards and David Garfinkel.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The authors are both well qualified in this area. JimEdwards has written five best-selling eBooks(including 'The Lazy Man's Guide to Online Business' and'33 Days To Online Success').</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">David Garfinkel is considered by many to be theworld's greatest copyrighting coach. He's anaward-winning business journalist and is also theauthor of several best-selling eBooks, such as'Advertising Headlines That Make You Rich' and 'KillerCopy Tactics'.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">There have been so many books on this subject that Ireally couldn't imagine how this book could addanything new.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But I have never before seen an eBook that explainsso clearly how to do it. I got the feeling that you couldliterally walk in Jim Edwards' footsteps and get thesame results he did (over 4,500 eBook sales in 9 months).</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">What makes this book very readable and enjoyable is thatit's simply a long interview - David Garfinkel asksthe questions and Jim Edwards gives the answers.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The book is packed with so many 'insider tips' that'sit's difficult to know where to begin, but one of themost valuable tips is how to find out - before youwrite your book - if there's a market for it.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">You do this by following Jim Edwards' 5-Step 'UltimateeBook Success Formula'. The formula allows you to findout if there's a target audience that is alreadyactively looking for the information you're about tosell online. And if so, if they are prepared to payfor it.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">One of the interesting things you'll discover in thisbook is that competition is actually good for youreBook.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">If you come up with an idea for an eBook and you findthat there are no competing books, you need to getworried - it means there's probably no market for thatidea.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But if there are books competing with yours, you're onsafe ground - you know you have a market.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">And don't be put off by competition: anyone who isserious about a particular subject will buy at least 4or 5 books on that topic.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Many eBook authors who make big money quickly withtheir eBooks do resale rights. Instead of making $29per sale, they're making $99 per sale. As you can see,resale rights can get you into serious money veryfast.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But there are definite pitfalls with resale rights(such as finding out a few months later that yourcherished information product has become a freeeBook). If you want to avoid these pitfalls, you needto read Section 2 carefully.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">You might think that best-selling eBook authors don'tbother with affiliate programs. Wrong!</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Jim Edwards shows you that one of secrets to makingmoney with your eBook is to load it up with back-endaffiliate links. But there's a right way to do this anda wrong way (more about this in Section 5).</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">But the real secret to how Jim Edwards made over$40,000 in one month from a single eBook is jointventures - finding people with lists of 10,000 or even100,000 and getting them to do a personalrecommendation to their readers.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">On the Internet it's not products that make money,it's lists (products don't sell, lists do). Or as JimEdwards puts it: 'the power is in the pipes, in thedistribution'.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Let's say your eBook is priced at $29 and you findsomeone with a list of 10,000 and they do a mailingthat results in 3000 people turning up at yourwebsite.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">And let's say that those 3000 visits result in 90 to 180sales - you and your joint venture partner are suddenlymaking thousands of dollars in a few days.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Jim Edwards shows you exactly, step-by-step, how toset up a joint venture. He even shows you the exactsame letter that he used to set up joint ventures forhis book 'How To Write and Publish Your Own eBook in alittle as 7 Days'.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">One of the keys to making joint ventures work is whatJim Edwards calls 'the Santa Claus technique' (more onthat in Section 2).</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">A question many people have is how to price theireBook. And it's crucial that you get this right. InSection 4 Jim Edwards reveals his 'pricing formula' -a very clever way to find your eBook's 'breakpoint' orequilibrium.</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">There's another very valuable tip in Section 17 - 'MySecret Method For Slashing Refunds' (this tip on it'sown could be worth the price of the whole book).</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">This is the best book on eBook publishing I've read inthe last 18 months - in fact, while reading it, I cameup with the idea for my next eBook!</font></p> <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">------------------------------------------------------------</font></p> <p><span class="style2">If you're just getting started in Internet Marketing, you may be awed by the amount of "Internet Gurus" out there, each one making millions of dollars (or so they claim) and for some reason seem more than willing, for a fee, to teach you their biggest, most intimate secrets. </span> <p><span class="style2">While I have no doubt about the specialized skills and techniques used by these gurus, it can get a little too frustrating simply getting tangled and lost in all their hype, and find almost no value at the end of the day. Hype - that's one thing I agree these guru's are really good at. For some of them, unfortunately, hype is the only thing they're good at.</span> <ol> <li> <p><span class="style2">Most Internet guru's have opt-in newsletters on specialized subjects like website marketing, Pay-Per-Click advertising, search engine optimization or whatever specialized skill they have "mastered". Almost all of them try to convince you to subscribe to their newsletter in return for some kind of "breakthrough" report, and promise to deliver "valuable information" weekly or monthly to your email address. Sounds great... </span> <p><span class="style2"> Here's what happens 2 weeks later - You realize that the "breakthrough report" is the same old regurgitated information which you can find almost anywhere. You might also realize that the "valuable information" almost never comes without any hidden agenda. The "valuable information" usually turns out to be a soft-selling ad (sometimes even blatant advertisements) for the guru's latest products or paid seminars, or even worse, some other Internet marketer's products. </span> <p><span class="style2">I'm not trying to shoot down any marketer here, but the irony is in their teaching. Almost all internet gurus would advice you to offer valuable, free information that benefits other people. Profits, as they say, is secondary to actually helping people and making a difference in their lives. Give before you take....what a load of BS! </span> <p><span class="style2">How come they don't practice what they preach? Of is that how the "Internet Marketing Game" is really played? Surely, nobody minds receiving ads and promotions, as long as there is a fair deal of free information being offered. </span> <p><span class="style2">Fortunately, not all Internet marketers are the same. There are still some jewels to be found, and they offer some great information in their newsletters, which they unselfishly offer for free, such as: </span> <ol> <li><span class="style2">Vishal Rao (<a href="http://www.home-based-business-opportunities.com" target=new>http://www.home-based-business-opportunities.com</a>) talks about starting and managing home based businesses.<br /> </span> <li><span class="style2">Mike Cheney (<a href="http://www.magnet4web.com" target=new>http://www.magnet4web.com</a>) talks about building an effective and efficient business web site.<br /> </span> <li><span class="style2">Jill Whalen (<a href="http://www.highrankings.com" target=new>http://www.highrankings.com</a>) talks about Search Engine Optimization.<br /> </span> <li><span class="style2">Allan Gardyne (<a href="http://www.associateprograms.com" target=new>http://www.associateprograms.com</a>) is the authority on affiliate programs and affiliate marketing, with an award-winning newsletter.<br /> </span> <p><span class="style2">Of course there are many more good marketers out there, and you'll have to get through several bad ones first before you get to the good ones. It is not necessary to subscribe to every Internet Marketing newsletter just to hope for nuggets of gold that may never come. Instead, give the gurus a "trial" month, and if you don't find anything of value from them, just unsubscribe from their mailing lists. </span> </ol> </ol> <h1 align="left"><br><br> </h1> </td> </tr> </table> <hr width="800" noshade> <span class="style6"><br><br> <span class="style2">©2010<FONT COLOR="#000000"> </span></span></div> </body> </html>
