Reports, e-books and e-courses are all examples of text based products. They are easy to create, but it’s unlikely you’ll be able to retire on the sales from an e-book. That said, there are some exceptions, such as Mike Geary’s ‘Truth About Abs’, that do make a significant income just from the e-book alone.

Decide if you want to create an e-book or a specialized product to sell, or as a giveaway for lead generation and list building.

How to Get Content for Your Text Based Product

Once you’ve chosen and researched your niche (and ensured it’s both marketable and profitable) it’s time to think about creating your digital product.

An e-book is a good digital product to start with. It’s quick to compile and you can start profiting from it relatively quickly.

So how to find content for your e-book?

You may want to consider writing your own e-book. If so, it’s best to start with something you are passionate about. If you know a lot about a particular  niche, this will be easy for you.

Books that sell are books that explain how to do something.

You simply need to answer a problem. Come up with a solution to something that needs fixing. People are hungry for specific, practical information  about how to solve their problems.

Customers want to hear about your personal experience, your story and how you found a solution to the exact same problem they have.
