Build Your Business With eBook Marketing

This post was most recently updated on August 6th, 2016

Build Your Business With eBook MarketingYou can Build Your Business with eBook Marketing cheaper, faster and more effectively than most methods.

I know.

You’ve been told that eBooks are old school.

They are.

But you know what else is old school?

Word of mouth is old school.

Handshakes are old school.

Story telling is old school.

So is building a trusted reputation, giving more than receiving and always putting your customers first.

I don’t care about old school, new school, after school, dropping out of school.

It’s only words.

The only thing that means anything is what works for your business and what doesn’t.

Building your business with eBooks is something that works because they are easily and cheaply produced, so you can actually make it happen.

They get digitally delivered, so your reader can get it in their inbox or on a download page instantly.

This is a great incentive for folks who are reading your blog, for instance.

When they are interested in what you’re writing about, they are prime prospects for your business.

They can immediately get an expanded version of your content by getting your eBook.

This is what eBook marketers call a “content upgrade.”

Gain Trust When You Build Your Business with eBook Marketing

Few things will make you a more trusted source of information than an eBook.

Use it to quickly establish yourself as an authority on your topic and a leader in your field when you write a high quality eBook and market it wisely to your target audience.

Create Your Own Unique Brand When You Build Your Business with eBook Marketing

One of the key advantages of blogging is to build your personal brand.

Blogging is a great way to brand yourself as someone that your particular audience will want to follow.

The next step up, and it’s truly a big step… is to offer your own eBooks on your blog.

You can offer them as content upgrades or as stand alone offers.

Just think how much more valuable a blog post your write becomes when you can tell your readers… “if you’d like to see how this works in much greater detail, subscribe here and I’ll send you the book I wrote on the topic.”

Types of eBooks To Offer

If you don’t know what to write, consider these common types of eBooks:

“How To” eBooks

Do you know something you can teach your readers?

Think of teaching them in the pages of your eBook.

Take your topic, break it down into actionable steps, and write them down in an outline.

Expand on each step.

Use screen capture images to illustrate exactly how something can be done.

Embed videos to explain the steps, face to face, or with a whiteboard.

People like to find actionable solutions to their problems in the form of “how to” eBooks.

“Follow My System” eBooks

This is a particularly popular style for marketers who are promoting a particular method of doing something.

Use this type of eBook to teach your reader something they know little or nothing about.

You might want to teach people a method of playing poker that you’ve developed, or a strategy for promoting professional services with telemarketing.

Walking your readers through each step of the process will familiarize them with your system.

They can then follow your system, step by step, to produce similar results.

“My Story” eBooks

This is not quite as popular an eBook type because a great many marketers don’t really have their own story.

If you do, though, and can document it in an interesting and instructive manner, it’s very powerful.

People love to consume information in story form.

It’s a great format for building trust and encouraging a deep level of engagement.

I am currently using this method, myself.

I’ve written a “my story” eBook called “Build My Blog.”

It details the story of how I developed my blog into a popular, high ranking site.

I use screen captures and videos to demonstrate points I’m making.

I link back to my own blog for branding, engagement and social proof.

I introduce my “Fast Start Blogging Program” for folks just starting a new blog, and link to the sales pages for a couple of my digital info products about blogging.

This way, I build profits from my free eBook and I can reinvest this into more aggressively marketing it.

This method helps me build my email list, and at the same time, creates a steady profit base.

Build Your Business with eBook Marketing

Few things will allow you to give your readers more value than eBooks.

Build up the trust factor that will have them turning to your to help them solve their problems.

Writing an eBook and offering in your marketplace is the least expensive way to build your business.

You can offer them at any price point you want.

It’s very common for eBooks to be used as lead magnets.

You can offer them for free to build your email list.

You can sell them cheaply to build a list of buyers.

You can increase the price as you appeal to progressively higher levels of clientele.

Your Blog Is A Sales Funnel

Whatever level of eBook Marketing you choose to use to build your business, the most important thing is to get started.

Write your first eBook… or second, third or forth.

I’d love to have your comments below, and would certainly appreciate you sharing this article on your social sites.

I look forward to any questions you may have as to how you can Build Your Business With eBook Marketing.

    Thank you for your Business with eBook Marketing tips!

    No trees die! This is my favorite reason to read eBooks. They are not made out of dead trees. This is good for the environment in several ways:

    – eBooks don’t end up as landfill waste.
    – Trees are the lungs of the earth, so saving them is a good thing.
    – It takes more energy to manufacture and ship a paper book than to download an eBook.

    Donna, whenever I need to know more on any blogging or marketing topic, I just pop on over here to your blog. I KNOW you’ve got it covered!

    I am finally ready to create my eBook. I totally agree, who cares if a technique is “old school” as long as it is still effective, right? Just like music… it’s either good or it’s not. I listen to some music that’s decades old. It still makes me happy so it’s effective.

    I just love love love all of your tips and will be referring to this post often as I put my eBook together. I’ll let you know how it’s going!

    Thank you for such valuable information, Donna.

    Thanks, Donna.

    I’m tidying up a short-ish step-by-step guide. I’m thinking of making it available for free and then release some follow-up checklists exclusively for those who download it.

    Although, how did you decide on the price for yours?

    Hi Donna,

    Better late than never as they say!

    What a timely post for me. I actualy have just started turning my blog posts into pdf files and on a couple of occaions into ebooks.

    My plan was to use themcas lead magnets to further build my list but as yet I have no worked out the best way to go about this. I never inteneded to sell them.

    My only other experinece into the “ebook world” was a report I created based on the expereicces I had whilst getting started online. I still use that as a lead magnet and surprise, surprise i still get some great feedback.

    Your points about using ebooks to build trust and our own unique branding are truly critical tips that we should all embrace and thsat alone has given me the incetive to start on my next ebook project.

    As always thanks for sharing your awesome expertise Donna – much appreciated.

    Best wishes from the remote Thai village marketer

      Hi Peter,

      No one is ever late on my blog lol.

      Using an eBook as a lead magnet is the best idea yet. How much money can one make with one eBook? Really now…… But as a lead magnet, with a good sales funnel and emails behind it can be a great “success machine”

      When in the marketplace, where no one has heard of you because your not one of the huge Gurus, they need to know something about you and an eBook can make a huge difference.

      It did with me, so that’s why I’m sharing it all week here, social media and on LinkedIn posts.

    I look forward to reading your other posts on the topic of e-books, Thank you Donna.

      Hi Sue,

      Well I know how that goes lol. I had to stop everything the past few weeks as I launched this eBook and started getting many visitors to it. Plus thankfully people going right into the sales funnel and taking care of all that in the back end.

      Once you do an eBook, put it out there and have a working sales funnel for them to connect to, it is another side of the marketing world. 🙂

    Hey Donna,

    Leveraging ebooks has got to be the most convenient way to build leads and gain traffic. I’ve only written one ebook which has helped me to build up my email list. I’ve also done quick lists and plan on writing more.

    I haven’t gotten to the point of selling any ebooks, but I see it also as a convenient ways to build an income stream. It definitely doesn’t have to be a novel, but enough information for your audience to start putting your tips to practice.

    Great share Donna! Have a good one!

      Hi Sherman,

      Leveraging eBooks is a great way to build your leads and traffic. I had spent a long time and lots of research trying to figure out if it should be free or paid when I did mine. Because I do have a sales funnel working well, I decided to make it free.

      After all, when I’m in the marketplace, no one knows me. So they have to look me up, check out my blog and stats before they will opt into something. I made it easy for them in one little ebook.

      Since then, I am noticing a huge spike in sales. We have to always consider that people have no time and won’t jump through hoops to purchase our stuff.

    Hi Donna,

    Sage advice.

    I do have a book out. I also have a report.
    But it’s been time to write another book (ebook and probably paperback version) for a while now.

    I’ve gotten started on that, so it’s just a matter of finishing it.

    It seems that smaller books with bite-sized, but valuable content is the best idea. I’ll probably include both story-telling and “how to” info in mine. That’s the way I write naturally and I express myself best that way.

    Great reminder for me and an informative post for people looking to take their message to the next level.

      The trends of today’s world is to get those bite size pieces of information and even entertainment. Unfortunately, people have lost a long attention span on just about everything. Well…not all people, but the majority of them.

      I would go with the bite-sized eBook. You can make a series …hmmmm

    Hello Donna,

    I have read somewhere that in this competitive market, we should not leave any publicity stuff for ourselves or our products because this is what strengthen you brand visibility. e-book marketing is one of those ways to build a better brand for your business.

    Giving out one free book to subscribers, and others keeping as paid is a good way to giving attract them first, and then get some business.

    Thanks for the awesome post, Donna.

      Hi Atish,

      When it comes to eBooks, it is a great way for people to get to know us. Why not give it away for free? When I see them for such a low price it really doesn’t pay to do all that work for peanuts. Who will buy it?

      It is great to have an eBook to spread around the marketplace, especially for those who don’t know who you are.

I remember how exciting it is to put an ebook together and I look forward to doing it again. However, it won’t be marketing my business. Or maybe it will? I do see a lot of Freelancers and Bloggers that are publishing How To’s and they are awesome!

      I would say if you are going to do another eBook…put links in and market. The reader has a choice…to read it as is or to find out more about you and/or what you can offer that will help them on the specific topic you are writing about.

      Knowing you…it would be pretty interesting (wink)

    Hi Donna,

    Nowadays ebook marketing is a plus point to boost up the business. Most of the bloggers sell their ebooks. There are many others who provide it to their readers free of cost.

    I like the idea of ebook marketing. Even I am thinking about creating one. Though, it will take some time. But still, providing a guide to our readers is the best thing to do.

    Great post.
    Have a nice day.

      Hi Ravi,

      I love giving away a free ebook. It can serve many purposes. The Know, like and trust factor when we are out there in the market place and no one knows us. It can also work well as a lead magnet to our sales funnel. There is so much one can do with creating an eBook.

      As a product creator of digital products, the eBook was pretty easy and quick to do. Offering it free has increased my opt-ins so quickly it is crazy! The day after I put it out I noticed a spike in sales.

      On the other hand, even if it is a low cost eBook, it does have to have something in it to market.

    Hi Donna,
    I was glad to read your post!
    Most of the websites and blog are created with major purpose of getting a huge traffic and monetizing the efforts into profit.
    One of major way to monetize the blog is to create a quality Content and sell this content to the people at nominal price.
    The common form of this content is an E-book which readers can download from your website and other major platform.
    The Readers on the blog comes only to consume a great content, which is informative and new as well. The readers will be ready to pay a marginal price if they find the content useful and interesting.
    Surely there are many benefits of creating an E-Book apart from generating revenue. It helps the blogger in establishing a brand for them.
    Thanks for sharing your views on E-Book with us.

    With regards,

      Hi Saurav,

      Selling an eBook at a small price is great to do because people are interested in the topic you offer. Here is where we get very serious buyers.

      On the other hand, here, I offer it free….so that many people who want to get to know me better when I’m in the marketplace can pick a copy up and get a clear idea of my business. It has happened over and over again where I’m selling a WSO or some other course and people need the KLT factor. The links are all there so they can find out who I am and what I do.

    Hi Donna

    So timely you wrote this post. In the last month, I’ve finished writing two e-books.

    Even though some people say it’s ‘old hat’ I think an ebook is a great way to generate more leads.

    They’re also fabulous from a branding and authority positioning perspective.

    eBooks can be used in other ways too. I’ll be running a webinar soon, and plan to give one of my eBooks away to everyone who stays till the end of the presentation.

    I note that you offer an eBook on the topic. Your readers should grab it, with both hands.

    Thanks Donna

      From branding to generating leads, e-books can work for you. I’m so excited for you running a webinar and giving away one of your eBooks at the end of the presentation. Love that tactic!

      Yes, I’m offering my free eBook here and know it will help others because I tell my own story too.

    Hi Donna,

    You must be a mind-reader 🙂 I’m just putting the finishing touches to an ebook about a training system I’m using.

    I’m spending longer tweaking the formatting, setting up a squeeze page and autoresponder than I did writing the ebook. But I did cheat by re-using some of my old blog posts.

    I already have a few eBooks to my name, but I’m afraid the earlier ones are rather in need of updating. Yet another project!

    Anyway, I’ll be sharing my new ebook on my blog “soon”. So pleased you agree with me that it’s still a valid marketing tool. Whatever “they” say about videos, you can’t print them out and make notes in the margin. It’s ebooks for me every time 🙂

      Hi Joy,

      I too find the “tweaking” part of it takes more time and thought than the e-book itself. The sales page has to work, and the autoresponder has to behave itself lol. We don’t want our stuff to land in the spam folders.

      It’s a never ending job. But as long as we love what we do, the process is easy and enjoyable. I will be looking forward to the unveiling of your new book!

      BTW “They” can say a lot of things. But when it comes down to it all, we all have our strengths and weaknesses. We have to go with what we feel strongly about.

      When done strategically, an e-book can be great for a lead magnet. As long as the content is helpful to others, and they start reading our emails following the book, the sales funnel we create will take care of the rest.

      However, if you want less of you in an eBook, just write about any topic. You are so knowledgable and have been online a long time. Choose a subject and write away….It’s like a huge blog post.

      Hi Tabish,

      If you wrote one and used it as a lead magnet…offering it free say to others put it everywhere. When you do write the e-book, write about something you are an “expert” in. Then have a few links where they can join you or a network company …whatever you want.

      It does build the KLT factor to those who don’t know you very quickly.

      Hi Alisha,

      I am so happy that this post has motivated you to write your eBook. I’ll be writing here, on Facebook and on LinkedIn all week long of different ways an eBook can help in business.

    Since I have several eBooks it’s pretty obvious that I completely agree with you. Most of my books are sold from Amazon but I do use one as a gift for my subscribers. It has a very clear purpose beyond an ethical bribe and that is to lay the foundation for the purpose of my site which is focused on building resilience. Also, your point about writing more than one book is really smart. So many people write one and stop. What many authors have found is the more books you write, the more you sell because if people read one and like what you say they will go back and by others – it certainly has worked that way for me both as a writer and a reader.

      Hi Dr. Lance,

      That would be wonderful for your business. If you picked up a copy of my free eBook here, you can get the idea. I’m sure in your practice, there is so much information you can give to people. From there…you can grow not only your practice but if you wanted, your books….talks … teaching…whatever you deem possible.

    Hi Donna,

    I’d stay after school to talk marketing strategies with you!

    Not only is your post good advice about using ebooks to pull more business, it’s another brilliant piece of sales copy. Really like your work!
