Introduction
Did you know that people are making hundreds of thousands, even millions of dollars each year just from selling eBooks? It's true! For instance, I’ve made $2,904 today and earned $23,132 in the past 30 days from just one eBook. And I'm not alone—since 2007, countless others have turned their knowledge into digital eBooks and continue to sell them successfully.
The best part? Once you sell an eBook, you don't need to worry about coaching calls, follow-ups, or one-on-one consultations. In this guide, I'll show you how to come up with a profitable eBook idea, create it in less than 24 hours, and sell it online for passive income.
Step 1: Choose Your eBook Topic
The first step is selecting your eBook topic. I recommend picking something you're knowledgeable about, skilled in, or have experience with. This will make the writing process smoother and allow you to add a personal touch to your eBook. It's also important to consider your target audience, as knowing who you're writing for will help you set the right tone and style.
Step 2: Write Your eBook with ChatGPT
To help us write our eBook, we'll use ChatGPT. Here's a simple process:
- Generate eBook Titles: Start by prompting ChatGPT with a topic. For example, “I want to write an eBook to help people make money online using ChatGPT. Give me 10 eBook titles for this topic.” You'll receive a list of titles to choose from. Pick one that resonates with you.
- Create an Outline: Once you've selected a title, ask ChatGPT to generate an outline. For example, “Expand on chapter one and write in markdown format.” Repeat this process for each chapter until the entire eBook is written.
- Edit and Format: Copy the content into Google Docs for easy editing and formatting. Add any additional information as needed, then craft a strong conclusion with a call to action (CTA) to encourage readers to take the next step, such as joining a webinar or a Facebook group.
Step 3: Design Your eBook with Canva
Designing your eBook is simple with Canva. Here's how:
- Choose a Template: On Canva's homepage, search for “Ebook Multiple Pages” and find a template that suits your theme. Customize it by copying and pasting the eBook content from ChatGPT into Canva, then adjust the design elements as needed.
- Create a Cover: Download the cover image as an image file. Then, search for “Ebook Mockup” on Canva, and customize the template with your cover image. You can also find templates with models if you want to design an ad.
- Download Your eBook: Once everything is complete, download your eBook in PDF format and review the final product.
Step 4: Sell Your eBook on Gumroad
Now that your eBook is ready, it's time to sell it on Gumroad. Follow these steps:
- Create a Gumroad Account: Sign up for a free account and head over to the “Product” section. Select “New Product,” choose “Ebook” as the product type, and set the price.
- Enter a Description: Use ChatGPT to help write a compelling description for your eBook. Copy and paste this into Gumroad.
- Upload Your eBook and Cover: Upload your eBook cover, thumbnail, and PDF file. Fill in the necessary information, then save and continue.
- Preview and Publish: Preview your product page and make any final adjustments. Once satisfied, publish your eBook and start sharing the link to your audience.
Driving Traffic and Generating Sales
Creating your eBook is just the first step. To generate sales, you need to drive traffic to your product. Start by creating content around the topic of your eBook on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, or your blog. Provide value first, such as sharing tips or tutorials related to your eBook's content, and then direct your audience to purchase your eBook.
