Tech Tip

If you use 1 Shopping Cart you might not be aware that you are being charged not only for the emails that you send but also to store emails that are bogus and emails where people opted in but never confirmed their opt in.

So be sure to periodically go into 1 Shopping Cart and delete the bogus emails and contact those who opted in but didn't verify and offer then a free gift for opting in now. You can't send them an email in the system but you can send it outside the system.

If you don't do this periodically and you go over 10,000 names on your list, you will be paying for emails you can't use!

Not only that but you'll think you have more people on your list that you are marketing to then you actually have!

And you could be making business decisions based on bad information, so beware!

Did you see the Oscars? There was a little movie called "Once"
It was about two musicians who had a dream - they collaborated and started to fall in love - there were complications of course that I won't reveal in case you want to see the movie.

Anyway, they wrote a song for the movie called "Falling Slowly." It was a huge underdog. The movie was made for - get this-$100,000! And it WON THE OSCAR! Not only that, but believe me when I tell you they beat out some heavy hitters and some great songs!

The point is you never know what you can achieve unless you try!  So take a chance and go for your dreams!

And if that dream includes becoming a successful ebook author, then you're in luck because I'm going to be teaching my Quick-Start 3-Day eBook Authoring Workshop and I'm really excited!

Feature Article

Organization Is Key To Writing An eBook In 72 Hours or Less!

When I give my Quick-Start 3-Day eBook Authoring Workshop there is usually at least one person who calls me saying they are stuck and need help. When this happens, the first thing I ask them is if they followed my ebook-organizing outline. And they almost always say "no".

The reason this is my first question to them is because it's one of the most important steps to creating an ebook in 72 hours or less and when you don't do it, it's almost impossible to succeed.

When you organize your thoughts on paper, it shows you the flow of your ebook so you don't go off on tangents and get lost. It stops you from hitting a dead end, because you can see everything that you  want to talk about and puts it into a sequence that makes sense.

It also shows you what topics you want to cover. And when you lay it out, you can see if you have one ebook or enough information for a series of ebooks. It also helps you figure out what needs to go in this ebook and what can be put aside for later ebooks. Organizing your ebook is one of the primary principles of my Quick Start 3-Day eBook Authoring Workshop. 

To learn more, join me March 4th for "The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make Authoring An eBook And How To Avoid Them For Unlimited eBook Profits". After March 4th there will be a replay line.

Q & A

Q.  I saw an article that had global ideas in it. Is it okay to take those ideas and expand them into an ebook? I'm concerned about plagiarism.

A.   Ideas are not copyrightable so you can't be accused of plagiarism unless you use the exact same sentences that were in the article. Instead, you should "model" them. Write the same ideas in your own words.  In fact, that's a great way to get an idea for an ebook.

Q. If the "typical" ebook is 80-120 pages with 1.5 spacing what size is the font of the text?

A. A 12-point font.
