You can use your eBook for much more than just a stand-alone product. One of the possibilities is using it as a free bonus to accompany one of your products or services. When your selling an affiliate product you could use your eBook as a bonus to the package.

In marketing, we all know that including bonuses and loading on bonuses is a huge, huge incentive for people to buy certain products or services. In fact, it is not uncommon to buy a particular product just for the bonuses themselves.

By creating an eBook, you are not only creating another product but a valuable bonus that you can now include in a variety of packages. When building your packages you should always be asking yourself how you can add value to that package. Adding an eBook is one step in the right direction because that eBook has established value attached to it, so by adding it as a bonus, your package just increases in its perceived value.

When I am putting together packages, the value comes from the price point that each of the products or services would be if sold separate from themselves.

Let me give a quick reasoning for that because there’s so many times I go on a website and I’ll see somebody offering a product, and they’ve got all these bonuses, then they just slap a value on there like $297 for this particular bonus.

Often times I take a step back and think, “Well, if that bonus was by itself, I would never pay $297.” It is something you should really take a second to think about. Ask yourself, how much would you pay for the bonus if you were just selling it by itself? The price you come up with that way is the true value of that bonus, not the one you just make up and put up on the website. You won’t establish value by doing that.

Make sure that the price you put for that particular bonus is what the market would actually pay for it and not just what you would hope they would. This is very important because when people come to your website they will calculate how much they would pay for it, so then your package looses tremendous value in their eyes if your prices are off.

But creating an eBook still provides you the opportunity to create a valuable bonus that you can include with your other products or services.

You can take this bonus one step further by actually including the resell rights to your eBook as a bonus.

I’ll use my own business as another example, only because I know my business so well. Creativity is what I talk a lot on, so I would be interested in possibly purchasing the reprint or resell rights of someone else’s products on creativity.

Take a moment to think about that. Why would I want to know what I would be interested in purchasing? It will actually save me a lot of time. If someone has made great content on the topic that I talk about, why would I want to reinvent the wheel? We could make it a win-win situation for both of us by partnering up and building a relationship.

This way they were able to get their material leveraged and I was able to get new material so I didn’t have to spend my own time doing just that. You can use this same principle to yourself and your business.

When you create an eBook, there are going to be other businesses or services that would be interested in the exact same content for their particular email list or their particular customers.

You have now provided yourself with a platform to be able to sell or offer the reprint or resell rights of your eBook as a bonus. Those people who are now interested in your eBook can provide or sell it to their customers and feel as if they are providing valuable information.

By doing this your value of your bonus has just continued to increase.

By following these steps you now have the ability to greatly increase the value of a bonus for your own products or even while doing an affiliate promotion.

May ideas come to you when you need them the most.
