Information Products – How to Reduce Refunds (Ebooks Part 2)
In the last article, I showed you how to increase the value of your PDF ebook by adding valuable elements like a table of contents and list of resources. Today, we’ll take your PDF e-books to the next level, adding even more value to improve sales and customer satisfaction, while minimizing returns.
Use 12pt font and double space the content. And add large pictures and graphics. Not only will this bulk up your ebook, it will make it much easier to read and provide a valuable service to your customers. Look. We want to be entertained as much as we want to learn. So make your information entertaining by including pictures and even funny comics if you can. You need to consider this in the design and development of information products.
You also want to use “johnson boxes” every 2-3 pages. Those are the boxes that encapsulate an important point. This adds bulk and helps clue the reader to an important concept you are trying to get across.
Use your e-book to tell the readers about other products you offer. One of the biggest reasons to publish an ebook is to inform your audience about what you have to offer. Add a list of products, complete with clickable links, so your readers can find those products. Three-dimensional cover shots will add visual interest, bulk up your content, and increase sales. It’s easy to do – if you can’t do it, find someone who can.
Finally, provide checklists and cheat sheets for your customers. People eat this stuff up! Any topic that has more than a few steps is better understood with a checklist. Tell your readers what to do and in what order to do them. Cheat sheets are great for technical things. Settings for a software. Settings for a camera. Tips for interviewing someone. Things not to miss when buying a new home. How to convert publisher files to a PDF ebooks. All of these work well with cheat sheets. And your customers will love them!
Are there other tools that could help your readers? Some things to consider include sample forms, spread sheets, contracts, and more. Your customer simply fills in the blanks. These can be important additions when you are writing an ebook.
By following these few simple tips, you can beef up your ebook and provide great value to your readers. People are willing to pay more for a good value, and your great new e-book will sell more because of word-of-mouth advertising. It’s a win-win situation for you and your audience!
