The only thing certain in business is that there are no certainties in business, in recent times this has been proven with the dramatic change throughout the world economy. This hopefully has given you the push that you perhaps needed to finally pursue those extra income streams that you had put off for another day.
If you are struggling to think of a unique and valuable method for generating extra income, then one of the best and fastest methods is to produce specialized content for sale.
You can share precious and valuable information with your prospects by writing either a "White paper" or a "Special report", these are two great ways of presenting yourself as an expert in your field. Of course you may already have enough to do but these reports can be created by searching through your existing files and archives. Thus they need not take a lot of effort to produce, the only extra element that you need to provide is an up to date introduction and summary.
During the searching phase you should focus on tracking down in demand content that you can include in your marketing copy and as the reports is full of in demand content, you can be sure this will make your customers far more willing to buy the report.
The following are some steps you should take when writing a special report:
? Never start off before finalizing your end goal and ultimate objective.
? Ask yourself whether you want to increase your sales, while dropping your charges to acquire those sales?
? Judge the things which are important to those whom you are trying to impress.
? Distribution methods hold a lot of importance so judging the best distribution method is really necessary.
? How many prospects do you want to impact with this report?
? First impression is the last impression! So keeping the layout of the special report pleasant is important. Plus, the readability of the report should be high.
? You should appreciate that any report is basically salesmanship in print.
? In this fast world no one has time to read lengthy details so keeping the facts to the point, brief and accurate is essential. The density of information needs to be high otherwise your reader will loose the interest.
? Focus on your headline! 95% of your readers will not take your report seriously if the heading is not engaging and benefit driven.
Once you have produced your special report, do not hold back. Publish it as fast as you can to ensure the content is as fresh as it can be.
To promote your white paper, place its url in the signature line of your emails or forum comments until your next white paper is released, which brings us to the last but most important point. To ensure that your white papers are considered important and newsworthy, keep the duration between each report to a standard business period ie quarterly or 6 monthly.
