Not long ago my 12-year-old, Elizabeth, asked me: how do you make any money if all you do is give things (like podcast episodes or eBooks) away for free?

Good question. Smart kid.

People sometimes joke about my eBooks -- and that's fine. They've become my trademark in a way.

They are absolutely the foundation of everything I do, and the foundation of the nice life Elizabeth has.

I give them away, and in exchange I get a list of email addresses. I then follow up by sending further offers to those addresses, and make more sales.

Most of those offers are for things I didn't even create. I just get paid a commission when people buy them. I find these relevant offers on platforms like ShareASale, Clickbank, FlexOffers, etc.

This is the entire business model:
 

(1) Give away an eBook.

(2) Send additional offers to the people who request that eBook.

That is it.

I have dozens of friends who make extremely good livings doing exactly this.

If people had any idea how lucrative this was, they'd all be doing it. But they don't, and they're not.

Many people contemplating starting a business are terrified of the word "free." Why, they want to sell things and make a fortune, not give things away.

But as you can see with this model, the key is: it starts with free.

Now here are your two objections:

(1) I don't know how to create an eBook.

(2) I don't know how to find people who would want it.

I am going to solve both of those problems for you.

First, regarding how to create an eBook.

Sqribble, which has sold a zillion copies, creates beautiful, professional-looking eBooks for you easily and in no time flat. I recommend it.

I'm giving you an 80% off coupon for Sqribble: SAVE80

Second, pick up Sqribble and I'll promote your eBook in my well-known email newsletter, so I WILL FIND YOUR INITIAL BATCH OF PEOPLE FOR YOU. That would normally run you $500, and is surely worth $5000. Thanks to this offer, you can get that service from me for about $13, which is the cost of Sqribble after the 80% coupon.

Oh, and third: send your receipt to bonuses@tomwoods.com, and I'll send you a 20-minute video I made showing you how to set things up so people can get your eBook automatically, or if you want to sell your eBook, how to set it up for sale.

This is all for $13.

That's as good an offer as you'll ever see as long as you live, my friend. You don't need me to tell you that.

And it's valid as long as I'm still alive. So since there's a chance you'll eventually admit I'm right and create your own report or eBook, may as well shell out the $13 before the coupon expires and I withdraw the offer:
