growingAlthough written information in pdf. format (i.e. E-Books) are the primary way to disseminate products, they are not the only way to profit from this sort of venture. If you want your business to continue growing you must offer more than one venue for your customers to choose from.

Marketing to your buyers convenience will earn you additional income. The limited time of many busy men and women makes it worthwhile to create solutions your buyers can download and listen to while they multi-task.

With so many high-tech toys available to the masses, you can create great information products for the iPods and CD players that appear to be professionally produced. Most systems have wizards that walk you through production.

Audio information products are easily produced and downloadable directly to the end users iPod. Burning a CD from your own computer and shipping is equally done with ease these days.

In addition to audio, many marketers assemble amazing information products on video. Using state-of-the-art video software like Camtasia, marketers can now create top quality products for their customers showing them how to put their ideas into action.

A video tutorial helps your customer get the most out of your product. If you have something the buyer should see, like step-by-step instructions to uploading images, then you need to be making videos.

You may want to implement the combination of more than one format for your information product sales. This increases your profits considerably and gives the buyer added value.

If you have created a 75-page eBook on how to utilize forums and chat settings to bring traffic to their website, you could give away a video guide showing them how to set up their signature files and an audio file teaching them how to develop the mindset of social marketing geniuses.

The most important decision on Super Bowl Sunday is with whom you spend it. This can make or break your Super Bowl Party.

I choose Gary Vaynerchuk, aka Gary Vee.  Gary is not aware of this and I fear he would balk at the idea when he discovers I am sipping a cheap Sangria! But he is my choice and he is “here” because he allows this to be. His short video about shaking hands with the online world is what prompted me to invite him into my home.

The Virtual Handshake

My take from his short video is that regardless of your level of expertise, purpose or involvement online, we are all humans who can interact with each other. While I may not hear from Mr. V nor anyone else regarding this post, I still extend my hand to you all. We are here, and we share this online world.

So Gary here’s to you! I am sending you a handshake and tipping my glass of Sangria to you. Welcome to my party!
