I’ll be out of town for a few days for the holidays, and although the Net will be where I’m going, I don’t think I’ll have much of a chance to do any posting. But it won’t be for more than a week or so… I’ll be back soon enough!
Although of late I haven’t really been posting my own stuff, it also won’t be for very long. My writing projects are progressing quite nicely, and if everything proceeds as planned — knock on wood — I’ll be back wordpreneuring full swing.
In the meantime… it’s gift time!
Thank you for being a Wordpreneur reader. Here’s a small gift from me to you, a pretty informative ebook that you may find useful in the coming year. Totally free. No subscriptions or forms to fill out or any such inconveniences; although I’ll probably kick myself later for passing on this opp to build my mailing list, what the hey, just download away!
Note that i’ll likely take this down as soon as I get back, so get it now while it’s up and available. Tell your pals too, while you’re at it (easiest way to do that is to use the “Share This” link at the bottom).

Writing short reports is an excellent way to get your information and message out to the world. They can be anywhere from about five to 30 pages, so you can complete one in much less time than it would take to finish an ebook.

About 6 months before my book was published, I had this dream of getting listed as “Hot Book of the Week” in a major celebrity magazine. So, I made a phone call to the editor and told her about my book. She seemed pleasant enough, as I mentioned that several A list celebrities were mentioned in the book, as well as the fact that 15% of the proceeds would be going to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation®.
Over the months, I’d let her know, via email, the progress of the book. I’d get pleasant little responses, here and there. I knew that getting in this magazine was a big deal, and rather a long shot, as most of the featured books are those by celebrities themselves, or #1 bestsellers that are put out by major publishers. My book was simply self-published via POD, and I knew that this was going to take a miracle. But I kept affirming that this was my goal — to get listed as HOT BOOK of the Week!

Writers and published authors need to take advantage of the number one method of book selling-the Internet. The Internet is the greatest selling and marketing tool available to an author. There are many opportunities and different ways to do achieve this. Here are a few online marketing tips for new authors.
One the simplest, most cost-effective ways to reach a broad online audience with your product and urge the reader into action is social networking. I’m referring to sites and online places where people share friendship and information. I love Goodreads and I get a lot of response whenever I post an event on that site. I am signed up not only as a reader, but as an author, which gives me a profile and the ability to promote my products. Other sites such as Ning, and Plaxo are also places you can let others know about you book, blog tour, or other marketing events.

If you want to use your writing to generate income and plenty of it, observe what successful Internet marketers do. They take an idea or concept and turn it into an ebook. Then they use the same basic information and create multiple products of greater value.
The advantage of taking a marketers’ approach to your writing projects is that it gives you multiple products at various price points. So you gain extra sources of income, attract more customers into your business and boost your profits significantly by simply repackaging and re-purposing the same information you already assembled.

For maximum blogging success you must know why you are blogging. Now not everyone needs a single concrete reason, but at least a direction and a purpose. Your blog’s direction and purpose may evolve over time.
When I started my first blog, I had two goals. The first was to experiment with blogging as I thought perhaps there might be some business value. The second reason was that I wanted to reposition myself as a consultant who had both business and technical skills. Traditionally, I was a technical guy and many of my older clients purely hired me for my technical knowledge, but I had developed a lot of business acumen as well.

Niche markets represent the very best places for which to write and otherwise create ebooks and other information packages. But you must be careful. These tips will help you get started.
1. You must be sure a niche market actually exists for your book. If the interest is too remote, highly unusual, or interests just a handful of people, you’ll find too few people to buy your book.
So ‘Octogenarians! How to Make Love Ten Times a Day‘ might have fewer takers than ‘Investment Planning for Farmers’.
