It's bad enough that Michael Malice makes fun of my for my free eBooks. Now my own kids are doing it!
You probably know I release eBooks on a regular basis. They are a great way to get the word out about what I do, drive traffic to my website, offers, and podcast, and build my email list (which all
you serious folks out there will need someday, if you don't have one already).
At the roast of me at my 1000th Tom Woods Show episode event, my daughter Veronica took direct aim at the eBooks.
Then, not long ago, while playing a game of
Quiplash, the question was: "A really unsuccessful booth at the fair," and one of the answers my kids gave was: "For Sale: Dad's eBooks."
(Don't worry: it's all in good fun, and I give back as good as I get.)
Being able to crank out
attractive eBooks and reports is -- I am not joking -- very much at the heart of what I and many other successful folks do online. So much good follows from them.
But...
...they are a pain.
Here are the hideous ten steps:
1. Go to your favorite freelance site 2. Post a job to get someone to write and design your ebook (takes an hour) 3. Wait 2-3 days for applications to come in 4. Go through applications, portfolios and feedback 5. Spend more time talking to
potential candidates 6. Shortlist entries and then hire someone (1 week later) 6. Fund milestones and wait for first draft 7. Ask for changes because they missed something 8. Wait another 3 days for them to come back to you after the weekend 9. Get something “close” to what you expected but it’ll have to do (sigh) 10. Pay them anywhere from 300 to 600 bucks for it.
Take my hand, friend, because I am about to walk you into a new world in which you can take those ten steps, roll them into a ball, and burn it.
I'm speaking, of course, of Sqribble, which generates eBooks for you just like that. I got an 80% off coupon for you (SAVE80), so don't use the coupon code on the site itself. That's for ordinary
people. You are getting 80% off because you know me.
And remember my offer:
Pick up Sqribble at 80% off at the link below and I'll promote your eBook or report to my entire newsletter list, whenever you have it ready. (As long as it
doesn't take direct aim at something I stand for; I can't promote an eBook in favor of socialism, obviously.)
And forward your receipt to bonuses@tomwoods.com and I'll send you a quick video I made showing you how to make an eBook available for download or for sale.
In 48 hours I'm yanking the offer, so check it out:
