If you have been selling resalable ebooks on eBay for sometime, then it is likely that you adopt a method similar to many ebook sellers.You source cheap or free ebooks with resell rights and then resell these inyour eBay store. Now there is nothing wrong with this method. It means thatobtaining the ebooks is cheap or even free, you don't have to spend timecreating a product and a lot of the time you even get a ready made sales pageand download page or visit www.ebook-marketing-exposed.com. For next to nomoney, you have a digital product that can be sold again and again, for verylittle effort. I used to rely solely on this method when reselling ebooks oneBay and achieved reasonable success with it. I even wrote a newsletter articlelast year on sourcing free ebooks that can be resold on eBay. To this day Istill resell other people's ebooks in my eBay store. However, the difference isthat I now also create and sell my own resalable ebooks.

Now you may be thinking; 'Why would you want to go to all the time and effortof creating your own resalable ebooks, which are likely to depreciate in valuevery quickly? Surely it is much more time and cost effective to resell ebooksthat are already available with resell rights?'If these are yourthoughts then you are thinking about resalable ebooks in the wrong way. Let meput it into perspective and hopefully change your thinking on the issue withthe example below.


Lets say for this example you are selling your own ebook and someone else'sebook, both for 1.99 in your eBay store. Now when you sell someone else'sebook you make 1.99 which is all well and good. However, when you sell yourown resalable ebook you make 1.99 from the sale AND after the sale you havethe potential for much more. What potential you may be asking? Well let meexplain below just what your own resalable ebook can do for you.

1) Promote:- Your own ebook can be a very valuable promotional tool for youreBay store, your website or whatever else you want to promote. If you want topromote your eBay store simply write a little note such as "brought to youby www.pdf-stampers.com" Or you could even write a small paragraph aboutyour eBay store, what it sells etc, and then provide a link to it if peoplewant to find out more. If you have your own website, write an ebook thatcontains similar content and of course provide a link to your website somewherewithin the ebook.

As you continue to sell your ebook with resell rights, some of your customerswill also start to sell it and eventually their customers will sell it too. Astime goes by your ebook will continue to be distributed, creating an increasingamount of traffic - your very own viral traffic tool. The more your ebook isdistributed, the greater the potential for traffic to your eBay store/website.

2) Sell your Premium Product:- If you have a premium ebook then resalableebooks can be used to sell it. For example, if you have a cooking recipes ebookthat you have wrote containing 1000 recipes this could be your premium ebook.You could then use 10 or 20 of these recipes to create a resalable ebook. Atthe end of this resalable ebook you could leave a note such as "Want toget 1000 recipes just like this? Then Click Here." The Click Here willlink to your premium ebook. If people like the recipes in your premium ebookthen they are likely to go on and purchase the full 1000 recipe premium ebook.

As before the same principles apply, and as time goes by your resalable ebookgets seen by an increasing number of readers and should generate an increasingamount of sales. Obviously, the above recipe ebook is just an example. Theprinciples above can be applied to almost any product/genre, allowing you touse your resalable ebook to promote and sell a premium product.

3) Sell an Affiliate Product:- If you don't have your own premium product thenthe same principles from above can be used to sell a product as an affiliate.An affiliate (if you do not know) is someone who sells a product in exchangefor a commission on the sale. The one thing I would recommend if you areselling products as an affiliate is to make sure that you have sampled theproduct before you promote it. Not only will it allow you to promote theproduct better (as you will actually know what you are talking about) but youwill also be able to avoid products that are of a low quality.

If you are looking for a premium ebook to promote as an affiliate thenClickBank is a good place to start. It has ebooks on almost every topic you canimagine and the commissions are as generous as 75% in some cases. All you haveto do is sign up and then generate affiliate links (through ClickBank) topromote each product. If buyers click and buy through your link, you will get acommission on the sale.

If you are looking for physical products to promote I would recommendCommission Junction. Again they have a very wide range of products andcommissions vary from product to product. Like with ClickBank you can generateaffiliate links via the Commission Junction website, and if a customerpurchases through your affiliate link you get a commission on the sale.

4) Generate Leads:- If you don't have your own mailing list yet and are seriousabout doing business online then I have one simple suggestion. GET A MAILINGLIST. It is quite possibly the most valuable asset you can possess in InternetBusiness. To explain the very basics of list building, you first need to signup for an autoresponder programme (I use and recommend Weber), build your list(using a variety of methods) and also maintain it (by providing value to yoursubscribers). Please bear in mind that this is a very, very basic analysis oflist building and I would recommend you did some research on the topic before gettingyour own list. I will be covering list building in one of my future 'Ebay EbookSuccess' articles but if you cannot wait till then I would recommend Jim CockcrowsHow to turn Auction Traffic into Cash. This is the ebook that I used toresearch and build my mailing list with the help of eBay traffic. Anyway, I'mgoing off topic here.

Once you have a mailing list, a resalable ebook can be a valuable source ofleads. All you have to do is place a link inside the ebook for customers tosign up for your mailing list. Like before as distribution of your ebookincreases, the number of leads it generates should also increase.

I hope this article has shown you the potential creating your own resalableebook provides. Whereas someone else's resalable ebook can bring sales revenue,your own resalable ebook can bring these plus additional sales of your premiumproducts, extra traffic, affiliate commissions and valuable leads. I am notsuggesting that you cease to sell other people's resalable ebooks. In factother people's resalable ebooks probably still comprise the majority of my eBaystore inventory. However, even one or two of your own resalable ebooks can makea huge difference.

Asa divorced woman, I now marvel at those who are able to createpassionate, loving, long-term relationships. From my studies with booksand the school of hard knocks, I believe that one of the most importantingredients in relationships, of all kinds, is appreciation. What is Appreciation? Appreciation is likea much-needed rainfall to a farmer's crops that have been withering ina drought. Just as the crops start to shrivel and die without water,human relationships also start to feel brittle without a steadyapplication of the nourishing, even life-giving, impacts ofappreciation. The dictionary defines appreciation as "a favorablecritical estimate," "sensitive awareness" and "an expression ofadmiration, approval or gratitude." When you appreciate someone, youare tuned into a positive quality of another human being and expressyour gratitude for it. ...
