Coming Up With Winning Ebook Ideas

Coming Up With Winning Ebook Ideas

The standard way to come up with a winning ebook idea is to study your market. Find out what the problems and frustrations of your market is and pick a subject that people are desperately needing answers to.

You can also simply “ask” people what they want. If you already have a customer base, just ask them what kind of product they’re most interested in and are willing to pay for. Then, create that product for them.

The best way to ensure your ebook’s success is to choose topics that provide solutions to existing problems.

But there’s an easier way!

I’ll be honest… I don’t particularly like to work hard unless I absolutely have to. I don’t see a point to it. So, if there’s a shortcut to be found, I’ll find it - or I’ll create one!

Whenever I want to create a new product, I just look at what’s already selling well out there and I give that product/idea a unique twist.

Just follow the experts and top sellers, watch what’s hot on Clickbank.com’s Marketplace (i.e. what sells the most,) check out Amazon.com and see what’s moving there. Go to forums and look for common problems or complaints people are having.

Here are a few more resources you can use to do research for your product:

Copernic Desktop Search - This is a free software that searches multiple search engines simultaneously to find what you’re looking for.

NewsDirectory.com - Look at hundreds of newspapers all over the world.

Google Groups – See what’s hot and what people are talking about.

Planning The Outline & Content

Since this report is about creating products fast, you’ll notice me offering you some amazing shortcuts throughout this report that will help you get your ebook written super fast!

To get my outline and content setup, I just go back to the sketch pad (from above) and play with it. I’m one of those people who likes to see everything laid out in front of me if I am to arrange them in any kind of order or sequence.

Of course, it doesn’t have to be done on a large sketch pad, like I do. Find out what method works best for you and do that.

You can just as easily create a document on your computer and start jotting down ideas for the book there. Basically, you want to make a note of all the sub-sections you will want to talk about. Then, when you’re done listing these sections/chapters down, just arrange them in a sequence/order that makes sense. You’ve now got a table of contents, or at least the first draft of one.

Here’s an easy way to get some ideas on creating an outline for your book: just look at the existing books on the subject! Whenever possible, try to use what’s already out there, there’s no point in reinventing the wheel. Go to the library and pick out a book on the subject you’re writing about and see how they have it all laid out.

I’m not saying “copy” it word for word. Just get “ideas” on what to do. If the book you’re looking at has a good outline, you can model off of that. If the outline (table of contents, etc.) are hard to follow on that book, you can improve on it when creating your ebook! (So, you’ll get ideas on what to do and also what not to do by looking at existing samples of work.)

That should be the core mindset for you while you’re creating your own products:

Make your product better than what’s already out there!

I can’t tell you how much time to spend per day on each chapter because I don’t know what your lifestyle or schedule is like. Just spend some time working on the chapters, one at a time, and pretty soon you’ll have the ebook completed.

Here’s what I would suggest you do each time you sit down to work on your ebook: Look at the Table of Contents you’ve created and pick a subject/chapter that most interests you at that time. Work on that chapter!

You’ll enjoy the process a lot more if you’re writing about something that excites you at that moment.

There are many other benefits to doing this as well, which I won’t go into here. Let’s just say that when you’re excited about the subject you’re writing about, your reader will feel that excitement when she reads your ebook. And that’s always a good thing. There are too many boring writers (and books) out there. Yours won’t be one of those if you use the above technique.
