Everyday more and more people are making a living out of selling information products on eBay. They set up an automated information products business, because it does not require much time nor money and it can bring great returns.
What is an information product? As its name indicates, is a product full of information, which is normally sold as an ebook. This information can be about anything (although you obviously want to sell an ebook in which people will be interested), from how to sell your used car to magic tricks; the scope is inmense.
Browse on eBay by searching for "ebook" and ticking "search in both item title and description". You will see what is being sold at the moment: ebooks about UFO phenomena, how to get traffic to your website, how to read music, body-building, even the Bible.
You can choose to do a bit of research on a topic that people would be interested in and put together an ebook, or you can sell public domain information, like the Grimm brothers fairy tales, Kafka's works, or Poe's poems.
Why information products? What is the added value on selling information products? It has many advantages both for you and for your customers. It avoids the three "S": stocking, selling, and shipping. You do not need to spend anything on production nor in shipping costs. Pretty much all you need is a computer and conexion to the Internet. You do not need to do much selling, other than writing your listing: you put it on eBay and the customers buy it without you having to say anything. It is advisable to keep account of the information products you sell.
Why automated? Setting up an autoresponder system allows you to have the sale completed without you having to "be" there. Once the payment received confirmation email comes into your email address, with the autoresponder system the customer immediatley gets their email with the downloadable ebook.
This is obviously very convenient for the customer and for you. They obtain instant gratification, it works like in a shop: they pay, and they get what they want immediately. You can be spending your time in any other thing in that time, as you know that they will get their product thanks to the autoresponder. In the listing, tell the customers to send you an email if they have problems downloading the ebook. The only thing that you need to do after the sale is check your email for possible enquiries. Not much of your time.
Creating (or finding) and selling information products is a very good investment. And I say investment because you spend your time and effort once putting down all that information you have researched, or the public domain content you have found. Then you do not need to do any other thing than listing the item over and over again, being that part of your catalogue of items to sell.
The little amount of time and money required is making many eBayers set up eBay shops and gain an income out if. It can be developed part-time, at your convenience, it does not depend on timetables and you are the boss. Why not start selling information products on eBay today?
