THE ULTIMATE SMARTPHONE WEALTH CREATION
Introduction to eBooks
An eBook(short for electronic book) also known as an e-book or ebook, is a book publication made available in digital form, consisting of text, images or both, which is readable on a flat panel display of computers or other electronic devices.
Although sometimes defined as a version of a printed book, some ebooks exist without a printed equivalent.
1. Cover an In-Depth Topic
There’s a time and a place for 10-second videos and short social posts, but when it comes to covering a complicated topic, ebooks are the perfect format.
The key to success for any long-form content is finding a way to communicate your ideas in a fun and creative way. The best ebooks contain a mix of clearly organized information and compelling visual support.
People who download your ebook are likely already interested in at least some aspect of your service offerings; so if you can tell a better story than the competition, you up your odds of winning over prospective clients.
2. Establish Authority
Ebooks generally include several pages, at the very least, of valuable information about a specific skill or concept.
The more value you provide, the more readers will associate your brand with the wealth of content they’ve absorbed.
By demonstrating your industry knowledge, you’re also establishing your brand as a trusted source for solving future dilemmas.
3. Build Trust
The information in your ebook is important, but so is the language with which you convey your message.
By giving real-time examples and offering approachable explanations, you build a positive rapport with readers, maintaining their trust and cultivating long-term relationships with prospective clients.
4. Generate New Business Leads
When you’re offering something as valuable as an ebook, you can ask for something in return. Most ebooks are gated, meaning they require readers to supply their name and email address before downloading.
While you may think this kind of requirement could deter prospective clients from accessing your content, the most qualified leads are actively looking for the information that your ebook provides, and likely won’t mind being put on a list to receive similar content in the future.
5. Repurpose Content
Ebooks contain a ton of (hopefully useful) information, allowing you to build a bank of content for repurposing.
Later in the month or year, when you’re looking for resources to keep your content flowing, you’ll have everything you need right at your fingertips.
Simply reformat it in a way that makes the most sense – whether as blog posts, white papers, or even a short video.
6. Increase Traffic
Offering a free book that covers all the hot topics and major concerns within your industry can help drive traffic to your site.
Include links to corresponding landing pages on your site so readers can gain more insights about your brand and inquire about your services when they’re ready.
7. Create a Company Manifesto
Every brand has a mantra, whether it’s publicly stated or not.
What do you believe? What’s your inspiration for creating stellar products or services? What values drive and represent your brand?
Your ebook can help set the tone for your brand’s voice and values, reaching consumers who relate to and support your mission statement.
8. Sell Without Selling
Ebooks allow you to demonstrate your brand’s capabilities by weaving in your case studies or positive client experiences to support your claims.
Subtly demonstrating how your company overcomes industry challenges is a great way to show readers what you can offer without being pushy or aggressive.
As a marketing professional, you already have the necessary tools and insights to create valuable content. The next step is organizing and communicating your industry expertise in a way that your target audience finds informative and compelling.
9. Create a Passive Income Stream
Though making money from eBooks may not be your sole reason for creating them, you definitely can create a passive income stream from selling them.
10. Easy to create
Ebooks are very easy to make -literally, it costs you nothing but your time.
You don’t need any special skill to create eBooks. There are lots of free tools available online that you can use to make your ebooks. Simply create your content in Word Document or PowerPoint and save it in Pit DF format. For the cover design, you can get high-quality images for Free here.
I like the fact that you only need to make it once, put it on your website, and it will generate leads infinitely. Unlike other marketing strategies like blog posting or promoting on social media, creating an eBook is a one-time effort but valuable for a lifetime!
11. Build Connection and engage with your audience
Having an email list is of utmost importance to sustainable, long-term business success. So offering an eBook to your audience is the best way to grow your email list. Ask for their email address before sending them the ebook.
Since you have their emails, it’s a great opportunity to start building a relationship and get some feedback. There’s much more you can do with your audience, be creative!
12. Increase your website traffic
After you have created ebooks, you can start promoting them through social media and drive traffic to your website, blog or product page. Remember to include a call-to-action in your books, you can direct readers to your website, a sale page, mobile apps etc.
13. Rise above the competition
It’s getting extremely competitive in the business world. So what makes your audience choose you and not one of your competitors?
It’s a great move to create ebooks if you’re a small business and your competitors are (probably) not making eBooks. You will have the first-mover advantage and tap into the targeted audience.
It opens new mediums to promote your business other than regular posting on social media, email marketing and blog posting. Don’t miss out on this opportunity.
14. Establish yourself as an Expert
No matter what field or industry you’re in, you’ll have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and expertise to share. By putting it out in an ebook, you can build yourself as an authority in that particular niche.
For example, a best-selling author with a series of books will establish himself even more of an expert.
Furthermore, you can build trust and reputation through ebooks. People know that you understand the subject matter well; you will always be the leader or person that they will refer to.
15. Generate Targeted Leads
Ebooks can help you attract good leads. The reason is simple: People will give you their contact details willingly when you give something valuable in return. These are the audiences that are interested in your products or services. If you’ve written it well, you can educate them and convert them into paying customers.
Follow these steps if you want to generate more targeted leads using ebooks:
• Identify your targeted audience
• Brainstorming session: What are they looking for? A solution to solve? Want to require a skill? What’s your expertise or knowledge?
• Write a book based on the selected topics
• Promote and market your books to your targeted audience
• Make a requirement to enter an email address for your ebook
If you do this properly, it might expand your upper sale funnel with high-quality targeted leads.
