How to Go Viral with Mini E-Books

If you don't plan to create a tidal wave of viral promotion with your mini e-books, then you might be better off promoting your business with some other form of advertising. This is because mini e-books an extremely powerful viral ability that works in forms of pre-selling, exposure, and trust-building in a way you cannot do through pay-per-click or search engine optimization.

Below are some tips on how to go viral with mini e-books:

Tip #1 on “How to Go Viral with Mini E-Books”:

Upload your mini e-book to as many Bit Torrent-like systems as possible. These systems will allow people from all over the world to download your book, even if they aren't the type of Internet-users who would normally be using e-book directories.

This is especially effective as many users of these systems believe they are downloading a product that normally has a cost for free – not a free product. This actually creates additional perceived value, which will give them the incentive to read it.

Tip #2 on “How to Go Viral with Mini E-Books”:

Be generous. This sounds like an irrelevant principle, but it really isn't. All great Internet marketers espouse it because it actually is true. The more incentives you provide, the more you give, and the better quality products you create, the more people will want to work with you – and the more people will spend money on your products.

Tip #3 on “How to Go Viral with Mini E-Books”:

Create initial exclusivity. If your book is perceived to be rubbish that you are throwing into as many trash barrels as possible in hopes that someone will pick it up, few reputable site owners will actually want to be one of those trash barrels. In contrast, if you start out by restricting distributing to only 10 sites for the first two weeks, then you can create some exclusivity that will boost the perceived worth of your mini e-book.

Next time you launch a mini e-book, re-consider these important tips for going viral with mini e-books.

Mini E-Book Creation Tips

There are a number of mini e-book creation tips you should keep in mind before you begin your next (or first) project. Paying attention to these small tips could save you hundreds of dollars in lost sales.

Tip #1 – Use a professional sales page and a professional format for your mini e-book. If you cannot do either of these on your own, you really might want to consider hiring someone to do the job for you. Simply having a clean, impressive sales page with good copy and a cleanly formatted mini e-book will do wonders for your credibility.

Tip #2 – Create high-quality information and keep a long-term strategy in mind. It is often easy to follow mini e-book creation tips that focus on the short run – that teach you to milk every last dollar you can get out of a customer in one shot, but if your goal is to make repeat sales – which is ten times more effective than reselling to new people every time – then you need to thing long term. Maybe even give your e-book away for free. It sounds crazy, but it will gain you a loyal following of supporters and subscribers.

Tip #3 – Create your mini e-book in PDF format, rather than in an executable file. Executable files are notorious for being bugged and not opening – or even crashing computers.

Tip #4 – Create a clear production creation timeline – and do not break from it. This will allow you to have a rough idea when you will complete things, so you can begin creating a buzz for your new product before you even begin to sell it.

Tip #5 – The last of my mini e-book creation tips -- is to find joint venture partners to help you launch your product. If you can find someone who will send your report out to his list completely free of charge, then you can actually avoid paying for advertisement altogether.

Will US employment data show that recovery is on track?



The economic calendar is packed with influential data announcements this week which are likely to provide volatile conditions and exciting opportunities for currency traders. The headline data release is the Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) employment announcement from the US on Friday, considered the most influential market mover, accompanied by the latest unemployment rate. The jobs data has disappointed the market in recent months and the April release has become even more critical than usual. Should the figure be announced as less than the forecast 203,000, then this will indicate the economy’s recovery is not as robust as Federal Chairwoman Janet Yellen would have us believe. If it is particularly disappointing, Yellen may even be forced to reconsider the current rate of tapering monthly asset purchases. On the other hand, if the figure is over 250,000 this could really excite the market, boost USD and vindicate Yellen’s decision to reduce the level of quantitative easing.

In a rare occurrence, the Federal Reserve is also meeting this week to decide this month’s interest rate decision. The two day meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday is not expected to elicit any surprises; Yellen is expected to announce interest rates stay steady at 0.25% and that the tapering program will continue at the current rate of $10 billion per month. EUR/USD closed on Friday at 1.3826 and was trading steady in early trading this week at 1.3820. The EUR/USD pivot point is 1.3860, with resistance levels at 1.3883, 1.3899 and 1.3922, and support levels at 1.3844, 1.3821 and 1.3805.

The main Eurozone focus this week will be the flash estimate CPI which is due on Wednesday. Inflation is a hot topic with many analysts concerned that the Eurozone is at risk of deflation. This week’s data is expected to be 0.8% which will be cheering news for the ECB and may give them the green light to hold off on intervening in the market for the time being. However, should there be a surprise drop in the inflation data, this may finally force the ECB into action. The euro may also react to Tuesday’s Gfk German Consumer Climate Index which is an indicator of consumer confidence, and Friday’s German Manufacturing PMI. The latter is particularly important as Germany is the manufacturing powerhouse of the Eurozone and any big changes to German PMI can have a big impact on the strength of the euro.

Sterling continues to be the success story of the year with the UK economy showing signs of a steady and robust recovery; Tuesday’s preliminary GDP reading may well boost GBP further if the expected growth rate of 0.9% proves to be a reality. Further GBP activity is expected on Thursday when both manufacturing and construction PMI are both expected to show positive readings further indicating the sustainability of the UK recovery. The GBP/USD pivot point is 1.6840, with resistance levels at 1.6856, 1.6868 and 1.6884, and support levels at 1.6828, 1.6812 and 1.6800.

Demand for the Japanese yen has been limited in early trading in advance of the latest Bank of Japan meeting scheduled for Wednesday this week. BoJ Governor Kuroda is expected to give the first indication of the impact of the rise in sales tax that was introduced this month, with Bloomberg reporting that analysts are expecting Japan to add monetary easing by July to try and boost the flagging economy.  The USD/JPY pivot point is 102.21, with resistance levels at 10.24, 102.27 and 102.30, and support levels at 102.18, 102.15 and 102.12.

The Asian markets are also expected to be affected by the announcement of China’s manufacturing PMI on Thursday. This figure has been hovering close to 50, which is the point which separates growth from contraction. The latest reading is forecast to be 50.5, but if it comes out even lower this could put a lot of pressure on China’s trading partners, particularly Australia. AUD traders should closely monitor this announcement and be prepared for volatility. The AUD/USD pivot point is 0.9293, with resistance levels at 0.9302, 0.9308 and 0.9317, and support levels at 0.9287, 0.9278 and 0.9272.

What to Watch this Week:
Forex traders are spoiled for choice this week, with the main focus being USD pairs, particularly EUR/USD, during the NFP announcement on Friday. GBP/USD may also be an interesting pair to watch on Thursday when the PMI data is released, and USD/JPY on Wednesday.
