While writing and publishing an eBook is not as hard as it may seem, it is a complex process, and to make sure I covered all the bases, I decided to write a three-part blog series that will cover all the aspects of this process.
Also please keep in mind that this post contains affiliate links, and any purchase that is made through such links will award me a small commission (at no extra cost for you). I only recommend tools and resources that I truly love, use and otherwise offer as alternatives, because there is no one right way to publish an eBook. But here is how I do it:
In others words, they a great stepping stone to opening new opportunities, they get you taken seriously online and help you establish that expert status that will set you apart from other bloggers or business owners.
So whether it is a bigger online reach, more visibility, speaking gigs, interviews, more email subscribers or just blog traffic, eBooks are a catalyst for getting your name out there and helping you be remembered and noticed online.
The best part is that you can really scale your income without needing a huge audience. I made over $50,000 by selling digital products, with less than 25,000 pageviews a month and an email list of around 10,000.
What are you known for, what can you do well that is recognized by others (online or in real life), and what topics or sub-topics prove to be most sought after are all hints and breadcrumbs that are leading you to discover what your eBook should be about.
You can use a free tool such as Google Forms or Typeform to find out what they are currently struggling with, where they are stuck, what topics (that you blog about) do they want to know more about and so on.
Keep in mind that an eBook should be able to take people from point A to point B in whatever they are trying to achieve. Finding out what they are struggling with and what areas of their lives they want to improve can be an amazing way to help you narrow down your eBook topic.
Depending on the topic that you choose, your eBook can be anywhere from 10,000 words to 30,000 words (or even more). So, because it seems like such an overwhelming project to tackle, people tend to put it off for months, if not years.
Whatever content you already created around that topic, you need to go find it and save it somewhere where you can access it later. You can easily save it in multiple Evernote notes or notebooks and have it ready for the next step.
Having someone else look over your content is crucial because at the end of the day you need to make sure that your eBook make sense for your readers and that your ideas and thoughts were clearly communicated.
In the next part of the series you will learn how to design an eBook cover, how to publish your eBook, have a successful eBook launch and set it up so that your readers get your eBook on autopilot after they have paid for it.
To sell it, you would need a software that can take payments and automatically deliver the PDF once the transaction is complete. I use and recommend Send Owl that can easily integrate with your website or blog or Thrivecart if you sell multiple digital products.
Because the costs of writing and publishing an eBook are so low, you can make a generous profit on the back of each eBook you write. How much you earn will depend on how your price your eBooks and your monthly sales.
When you publish an Amazon Kindle eBook, Amazon pays you 70% royalties for any sales made, and depending on their monthly KDP budget, you also get paid according to the number of pages read by the people who access your eBook for free through Kindle Unlimited.
Publishing an Amazon Kindle eBook is totally free, but you will need to create a mobi. format of your eBook they require for Kindle readers. Amazon will pay you 70% royalties on any sales made on their platform.
The fastest way to write an eBook is to use your pre-written content as a base, and add to it. You will also want to give this project your unlimited attention for at least 30 days, in which you will commit to writing at least 1,000 words per day.
