[QUOTE="nomadbrah, post: 1130883, member: 10141"] "Ebooks" is just a packaging of information. If you've been reading about selling ebooks, you're likely reading the wrong places. And even those internet marketing hucksters and their "sell an ebook" courses, will still tell you that the product isn't what matters, it's the problem-solution-marketing combo. Ebook is information marketing. That's a very common issue with most who want to earn "online monies" and who only learn online. They become focused on methods and goals and not nearly enough on skill. Don't learn to sell an ebook, instead learn: 1.
