If you are a solo professional and you would like to increase your income almost immediately, you may be interested in creating your own information products business. Info products, or ebooks are a scalable business that any lone entrepreneur can easily create based upon their personal expertise. Read on to find out how you can create another stream of income to your solo business.
Information products are basically just a solution to a problem that your customer has. Your first few products will be base upon your own years of experience and expertise in a particular field. If you want to add an additional stream of income to your business without having to spend a lot of active time managing it, then info-products are the way to go.
Here are the steps you will need to follow to get your first project off the ground:
1. Find a niche with a problem and create a solution based on your own expertise. This can be a short report and you will still be able to charge a reasonable fee for the information. People just want the problem solved, not a novel for entertainment.
2. Build a one-page sales letter that you will post to the internet. These are very easy to create and only take a small amount of web creation knowledge.
3. Find a company to accept payment and process the orders for you. There are many places available on the internet.
4. Promote your new product to your customer list and collect the money.
You will not get rich with a single information product. Those days are long gone. However, you will create a little oil well that you only need to set up once and it will keep selling for your 24 hours a day all over the world. Once you have one page up and running, you can easily add additional information products that will solve a problem for another small niche of customers.
Information products are truly the perfect supplemental business for the solo professional. You do not need to add employees, inventory, or make any face-to-face sales. All you have to do is find a hungry crowd with a problem that they want solved right now. You create the answer to that problem in an easy-to-read format and then you deliver it to the hungry crowd on a silver platter. Once they become your customers, you can create variations on the same theme and keep them as customers for a long time.

Because I can not be a guest or at this time send a recorded voice bite. I would like to send my advice for the blogtalk show December 3, 2009. I chose this advice because lately I been hearing and seeing Bad Customer Service in many businesses. Why, Not Sure because Customer Service is the Life Blood of any business. Last week I called to discuss a concern on one of my account. You would think, that the person would greet you with some Telephone Etiquette, WRONG! This young lady was in a bad mood from the beginning and I said to myself Shay Do your thing and show her what you Know!
First and Foremost I always wait until they pull up my account before I begin talking, this way we both are on the same page. Oh, before I call I always have my information in front of me and that way I know exact what I’m talking about. As you get older your mind does wonder…LOL
Now to make a long story short I use some of my best Telephone Business Etiquette and in hopes she would catch a hint! I think she did, because by the time I finish we were laughing and leaving with a greeting Have A nice Day!
OK Here are a few Telephone Etiquette I would like to advise for the year 2010!
1. Use proper manner when speaking with someone: The act of using the telephone and speaking someone through the phone line is so common, such that most people fail to practice proper manner when doing this familiar act.
2. Prepare yourself before the call: During your preparation, you have to specifically focus on what you need to say to avoid missing out on any information. This is specially true when making business phone calls, avoid speaking without thinking about what you are about to say.
3. Start the Conversation with the right words: You can use variety of polite greetings and introduction that will impress the person you are speaking to. But most importantly, you have to do this genuinely, Your ability to showcase a positive attitude during a phone call is first and foremost evident in your choice of language to use. Thus, choose those words correctly.
4. Speaking Clearly: Your ability to speak clearly and get your message across is important to ensure a successful communication system. Despite the advancements in communication technology, your ability to speak clearly is the most focal point in being fully understood.
5. Establishing Rapport: The more they feel comfortable speaking to you, the more interested they’d be with what you have to say. Voice toning is a nonverbal factor that reflects your personality to the person you are speaking with on the phone, as well as affect your ability to communicate effectively.
6. Listen Attentively: One of the most unethical practices one could exhibit during a phone call is failure to listen to what the other is saying on the phone line. After all, you would not want it for them to not listen to you while you are speaking.
The six practical tips I have listed above concerning the proper etiquette when speaking on the telephone, it all boils down to the golden rule. Try to treat others via phone the way you would want them to treat you. Putting forth the need to establish respect and dignity is even more important if you are making phone calls for business reasons.
I hope my six tips can help make your 2010 a Great One!
Peace & LuV,
