You are in all likelihood looking for additional revenue streams to keep your business solid and secure in this contracting economy and unsettled world. Creating specialised content for sale is one of the fastest, most reliable methods of earning extra income fast. Publishing a “white paper” or a special report, is a great way to set yourself up as an expert in your field or niche, and share valuable information with your prospects.
You may already have most of the elements for an e-book or special report in your files or archives. Ascertain which ingredients make customers willing to pay you for material available from other sources, and what elements you should include in your marketing copy to spark their interest in purchasing now.
Here are the steps to take when writing your special report:
- Have your end goal in mind before you begin.
- Do you want to discover a way to increase sales, whilst reducing your cost to acquire those sales?
- Who are you attempting to impress and what is important to them?
- What distribution method will be best?
- How many people do you want to impact with this report?
- Make certain the layout of your special report looks pleasing, and is very easy to read.
- Bear in mind that it is essentially salesmanship in print.
- Keep your facts accurate, very brief and pertinent. The more compact your information, the more valuable and more likely to hold the interest of your reader.
- Compose an attention getting headline. 95% of your readers will decide if they will read your special report based entirely on your headline, so make it great and make it benefit driven.
Get it on the web. When emailing others, include your white paper URL in your signature line of your Email or include the URL when promoting your special report on Email discussion lists.
