What's The PERFECT eBay Product ???
Finding products to sell is the single biggest problem eBay sellers face
today. I am in my ninth year of selling on eBay and finding profitable
products is still a daily challenge.
I asked myself: "If I was looking for the ultimate eBay product today, what
characteristics would it have?"
- It would be highly profitable
- It would have an unlimited supply
- It would be easy and cheap to deliver and ship
- I would own or control it
- It would have no - or very little competition
- It would lend itself to up-selling and cross-selling
So what product meets all of these specifications?
Information is the one product that meets every one of those criteria.
No - I am not talking about selling stupid get-rich-quick schemes. That's
what comes to mind when most people think of information sellers.
|
Note: This is NOT about selling 99-cent eBooks or
other stupid info products. Keep reading to learn about professional
and profitable information products you can be proud to sell and that
actually make a profit. |
Almost anyone can create and sell knowledge-based products that:
- help people
- educate people
- solve a problem
- entertain
Information is one of the best-selling products of all time. People buy
all kinds of information. Here are just a few of the hundreds of information
products selling on eBay:

What do I know about selling information?
In addition to selling our merchandise on eBay, I have been selling
information products on eBay and the Internet for five years now. During that
time I have sold just over $1,000,000 worth of my books and CDs.
| Hey Skip, your Info book is amazing! The timing for me
was perfect as I'm creating an e-book right now. Your book explains
with easy reading that anyone can do this and most importantly, "how to
do it right". The resources you mention are all the best in the
industry and I will be using most if not all of them. I also look
forward to your next newsletter. Those are great too!
~ Bob Bronner |
You might be thinking: "I don't want to write eBooks." That's OK, because
information includes a lot more than eBooks. People now sell their original
music, videos and photography. Craftspeople sell plans and patterns. Pet lovers
sell videos on dog training, nutrition and grooming. Musicians and bands are
selling their music.....

The list goes on and on. There is simply no end to the products you can
think of. Your imagination is the only limit.
Information products today include:
- Both e-Books and printed books
- Access to web pages where the information is stored
- Membership in private web sites where members can access a continuing
stream of information
- Videos (DVD or streaming video viewed on a web page with RealPlayer or
Windows Media Player)
- Audio files on tape or CD
- Pod Casts
- Printed books, DVDs or CDs that are mailed out to the buyer
- Software programs
- High-quality digital photographs that can be printed and framed
- Combinations of printed and electronic material (DVD and a workbook)
- Original music, art and photography delivered digitally in MP3
|
Why is information the perfect product?
- You control the product. You own it, you set the price and you
never run out of something to sell.
- Information products are inexpensive, easy to create and can
last for years.
- You can deliver many information products automatically. If you
use this method, you can sit in your hotel room in Cabo San Lucas
while you take and deliver orders from your laptop. (If you sell
physical products such as printed books, CDs or DVDs, I will also
show you my secret source that will deliver these automatically as
well).
- No competition. Every item you create is unique and you own
the copyright.
- You set the price based on the value the product delivers - not
the cost to produce. One lady is selling her DVD of quilt
patterns for $19.95 + $1.90 shipping. Her cost: $1.30 each. That's a
1500% markup!
- If you can come up with one information product - you can come
up with more. This gives you endless opportunities to up-sell
or cross-sell additional products.
|
Why is eBay the perfect venue for selling information products?
- You have a ready made market of 85 million members in the US and
another 40 million members in English speaking countries overseas.
- eBay members search for products. Remember the quilt pattern lady I
mentioned above? Well when someone searches the term quilt or quilts, her
listings come up.
- It is very easy to set up an eBay account and start selling on eBay.
- eBay used to discourage selling digital products - now they embrace
it...BUT they did institute some new rules in 2008 that changed the
game. As it turns out these rules were actually a good thing as it got rid
of all the hucksters and now there is an even better market on eBay
for legitimate information products.
- Let's face it. When it comes to selling information products there
are a lot of scams out there. If you run a scam on eBay you will very
quickly be shut down or experience high negative feedback scores and no one
will buy from you.
But, if you deliver a quality product and build a good feedback rating
you will have an unstoppable -- and completely legitimate money machine.
|
And eBay isn't the only place to sell your info products.
We will show
you how to sell on other sites including:
- Twitter
- Amazon
- ClickBank
- Facebook
- From your own blog or website

I am not a writer. How can I create a product?
First of all remember that we are not just talking about writing.
- Do you have a skill that you could capture with a video camera?
- Some people sell audio files?
- Musicians are recording their own music and selling it as mp3 downloads.
One fellow records himself reading popular nursery rhymes that parents can
pop into a CD player to play for their children. (There must be a lot of
lazy parents out there because he sells a ton of these).
- Another seller captures free photos of old airplanes on the web -loads
them onto a CD and sells it for $9.95

Skip - I was always a lousy writer. Your EZ writing
system blew me away. When I finished my first manuscript, I had it
professionally edited, but there was so little to do, I was only charged
$40. I am really excited to get going.
~ Sally M, Macon, GA. |
But if you do want to write a book or an eBook, that is OK. I will show you a
simple writing method and several sources that will take your facts and
words, organize and edit them so your book looks professional - or take your
outline and research and write the complete book for you. And, you will own
the copyright. Some of my sources charge as little as $2 page. Just think if
you could get a book written for $200 and sell 1,000 copies of it for $19.99
each (I'll let you do the math).
And then there is the public domain.
You may not know it but there are literally millions of works in the public
domain that are copyright free for you to republish and sell....
...and I am not just talking about old books. Public domain works include
art, photographs, historical documents, musical recordings by famous performers,
speeches by presidents and other famous people -- the list is endless. There are
even some old classic films in the public domain.
Some sellers are charging as much as $67 for just a report on how to publish
public domain works. It is yours FREE as part of this package.
Imagine yourself in this business:
 |
Work from home or from your laptop
virtually anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet
connection -- and work your own hours |
 |
Forget high gas prices. If you
become successful at this, your commuting days are over |
 |
Never run out of something to sell.
If you need another product -- just create it. |
 |
Enjoy high markups and little or no
competition. You can create information products for about a dollar each
that can sell for up to $30 or more. |
 |
Become respected for your knowledge
and expertise. If you develop products in a certain niche, you can
expand that to sell newsletters, memberships and subscriptions. You can
even sell physical product in addition to your information. Remember the
fellow I mentioned above? He started out selling Pinewood Derby race car
plans and racing tips. Now he also sells the car kits. |
What will I learn?
I have been selling information products successfully for over five years. I

any information product

students at a seminar I did in Las Vegas, and almost all of them came up
with profitable niche product ideas in less than one hour).

This is only a partial list of what you will learn. And, that is just the
basic product. In addition to the printed workbook, I am going to give you over
$300 worth of bonuses.
#1 -- The Information Product Resources File This is my personal
electronic rolodex and your logistical warehouse of information. It contains
links to dozens of websites that contain tons of free and low-cost information,
tools, techniques, research engines and more.
#2 -- An eighty page eBook: Create Your Own eBook Without Ever
Writing a Word will show you how to get a first-class eBook written and
edited for you by an expert without you ever having to write a word.
#3 -- Power Copywriting for the Internet by Bob Serling. This is a 149
page work by master copywriter Bob Serling. Thousands of copies of this book
have sold for between $157 and $197. It is yours free with my eBay
Information Products Course.
#4 -- A $20 off coupon on The Complete eBay Marketing System. If you
already have my book, or are an expert power seller, you won't need this -- or
you can give it away to someone as a gift. But if you have not mastered selling
on eBay, this book will give you the advanced skills to sell not only
information products, but any kind of product on eBay.
#5 -- The Future of eBay. This is my 30-page eBook that explains all
the new eBay policies announced in August 2008 and shows you how to turn the new
policies into effective selling strategies.

And there's more...
Lastly I want to tell you about the final section of my book. I
finished the book and sent a copy to a couple of my friends and associates to
review. They gave me some great criticism, suggestions and feedback and all of
them thought the book would sell like crazy.
But two of them said something like: "Skip, your book covers how to sell
products on eBay -- but what about all the other stuff like selling from a
web site, affiliate marketing, Google AdSense, and so on?"
Well that gave me pause -- but then I reasoned: "If that's what people want
then that's what I'll give them."
The book was essentially finished, but I decided to write a new section:
I call it Beyond eBay. The new section shows you how to take
your information products business from eBay to the internet -- and how to use
your information products business to make money with direct sales, affiliate
marketing, Google AdSense and even social networking sites like Twitter.
Now I am not going to claim that this new section is a complete encyclopedia
on these subjects -- it's not. But it is more than enough to get you started
-- and I recommend several resources on each of these subjects that will give
you 100% of the information you do need to be successful.
You may be wondering: "Skip, what do you know about affiliate marketing?" I
am far from the expert -- but my monthly income from AdSense and Affiliate
marketing averages around $5,000. That is in addition to my eBay sales and my
information product book sales.
So, what is all of this going to cost me?
OK - Good question. But let's review what you get first . . .
- How To Sell Information Products on eBay, Amazon and the Internet

eBay and the internet over the last five years. It comes as an immediately

electronic rolodex and your logistical warehouse of information. It contains
links to dozens of websites that contain tons of free and low-cost
information, tools, techniques, research engines and more.

Writing a Word. Print this out and put it in a 3-ring notebook for
easy reading. If you really can't write -- or just don't have the time to
write, the author will take you step-by-step through the process of getting
your eBook written for you.
- Power Copywriting for The Internet. The 147 page eBook by Bob
Serling that will lead you step-by-step to creating sales letters that sell.

textbooks can put immediate money in your pocket?)
