Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

Marcia,

   I have to honestly say I would not pay money for any of those topics as I have found so much information is available free either on-line or at the library in published book format.  Being an entrepreneur myself, I have to carefully consider every purchase.

   What I see online is a number of people offering free advice first, and if you like it and want more, then you can pay them for the e-book.  I am not sure if that is working for them, and maybe that is what you already have planned.  Two such places where I have received free advice that was good and where they also offer e-books are:  vivavisibility.com and macgraphics.net.  Hope those links are of some help to you.

   You probably know vastly more than I do about the e-book marketplace, so just take this as one person`s opinion.

   The reason I popped in on this post is that I am a product developer, so I am interested in new products.  I don`t generally think of knowledge as a product though, I think of knowledge as a result of the learning process.  That would make a knowledge giver a teacher and not a salesperson with a product. 

   You probably are a wonderful teacher since you have so many good book ideas.  Maybe people would pay to take a live class with you.  I think the human touch is overlooked, and  people would pay to interact with a great teacher in person.  A friend of mine worked for a corporate training company for a while, travelling and teaching on topics similar to yours and selling the company literature and tapes.  That was a great experience for her because she was getting paid to see what it is like to become the sought after expert in a field and what it takes to sell knowledge.

   Hope there is something of value in here for you.
