How to Create Your First Information Product

Many people who are just starting out don’t even realize that they have knowledge that other people would be willing and even eager to pay for. Finding out what your first information product will be like is the first step to making a fortune online. You have an ebook inside your brain just raring to hit the net. Think about the next items... 

• If you've lost a lot of weight and could teach others to do the same, you can start listing your methods. 
• If you can stretch your family budget and still keep your family healthy and happy, moms all over the globe would love to know your secret. 
• If you have a specific crafting technique that only few people know about, writing a book about it will make you rich. 
• You can write about your dog training experiences and help people all over the world by selling the information. 
• If you're a natural gardening expert, you can share your knowledge with the world. 

The above list includes just a few ideas. Take your time and think of a particular topic you love to create your first information product with. When you know what your info product will be about, it's time to get busy. The entire process isn't tedious. In fact, it can be hands free. You can outsource the more tedious tasks like formatting and typesetting.

Look for a way to make your idea profitable. You want to target a certain proportion of your market that desperately needs the information you sell. Let me give you an example. When the economic crisis started, people became desperate for information about how to cope with the loss of job, property and assets. At the same time, people started looking for books that will explain the "alien" concept of frugality. 

One crucial factor in your success is the unique selling position. A better product simply means a unique perspective on an old problem. You won’t get far if you simply sell your market the exact same product as the competitors are delivering to the customers. 

Write the outline of your information product. You can write the main gist of your ebook in outline form. After the outline comes the draft. For this, you can hire a virtual assistant or a ghost writer. You can finish your draft sooner than you think. If you don’t like to type, then try a voice-to-text product like Dragon Naturally Speaking.

Use Adobe to transform your ebook into PDF. Designing is easy and you can simply let freelancers do the job. Next, find a good domain name that you can use to sell your book. Even a simple sales letter will do the job, as long as your shopping card system works.
