Selling e-books online is a great way to start your business. The information in this article will keep customers coming back, providing you a steady income even after the first e-book has been purchased. Don't just sell an e-book for $37 one-time; customers who pay you month after month provide an exceptional income!



Develop a group of customers, all paying monthly, using "forced continuity". Let me explain. When a visitor buys your e-book, they automatically receive a free 30 day membership to your club (a value of, let's say, $20). Of course, club members get great bonuses - perhaps an online membership site, or a monthly audio club for CDs. At the end of 30 days, their credit card will be automatically charged for the following month. They will remain members until they choose to unsubscribe.

Provide your club members with a great value, and they will stay with you for a long time. You should expect some members will move on after the first couple of months, but many will stay to provide you ongoing income. Not only do you sell your e-book, but you can count on another $20 a month in membership fees. If your members remain in the club for three years, you just made $360. .

If you allow the membership club to be voluntary and ask, "Hey, do you want to join my club?", they usually say no. But if you give them a free trial and warn them about 25 days into the membership that their card will be charged, you have the opportunity to win them as a permanent member. You can prove to the new member how valuable this club is to solve their problems. There will still be some who cancel, but many will see the value and stay with you.

Forced continuity with your e-book makes your job so much easier. You sell one time, and you reap the benefits month after month after month. This is how to start an online business with e-books and boost your business to the next level.
