There are many ways to make money writing booklets. Here I will give you a few ideas to get started. For more detailed information, visit the link in the resources box below article.
Step2
To get started, determine the topic you'll cover, then, simply type your booklet in an word processing program. (See Guide In Resources Box Below). You'll then need to create your document in a PDF format. If you do not have a PDF creator, you can get a FREE trial version at adobe.com. This will allow you to create 5 PDF files with no cost.
Step3
Now that you have your e-book completed and in a PDF format, you can begin to market your product. There are so many options when you get to this stage. I will cover the three easiest ways to do so. The first idea would be to sign up for a Clickbank (CB) account (Link in Resources at bottom of page). Once you have signed up for a CB account, you can submit your booklet to the "marketplace." When you are listed in the marketplace, hundreds of thousands of affiliates can begin to market your product for you! This is an amazing way to get started. It's low-cost, easy and you can sit back and let thousands of other promote your product for you. Of course you will have to offer a decent commission (around 50%) but you could potentially sell 100s or 1000s of products in a very short period of time. This could take you years to do yourself!
Step4
Another option is to give away a free "report" on your booklet. By doing this, you are giving the reader a bit of information and create a desire for the reader to buy the booklet to get more of your great information. You can distribute your free report by placing links throughout your free booklet leading the reader to a landing page where they can purchase the full book. This can be accomplished in many ways as well. I suggest, using a traffic exchange program to accomplish this quickly. What you will do is create a very short web page (free website in resources) that lists a few benefits of getting your free report. In this page, you will have a place to sign up for your report. You can do this by getting a free account at feedblitz. Here you will get an html code that you can place on your page, allowing viewers to sign up immediately. Once you have done this, place your page on trafficg, and just check your feedblitz account daily and deliver the books to those who have signed up.
Step5
I have also been fairly successful selling my booklets myself on eBay.
Tips & Warnings
There are literally hundreds of other ways to sell your e-books. Once you get started with the above ideas, many more will follow! Just keep you eyes open for any site that sells booklets, odds are they offer a way to sell yours there as well.
Try starting free blogs, writing articles about your booklet and submit to free article submission sites. Just be sure there is a link to your buy it now page. You can get a free merchant account through google to do this yourself. Just go to http://checkout.google.com/seller.
Start with one or two options, don't spread yourself too thin or you will get overwhelmed and discouraged. Try an option for a week or so, if you don't see the results you want, move to another option.
